[sheepdog-users] sheepdog on ubuntu 16.04 doesn't start

[Philip Crotwell]

Hi

I have a small cluster that was working fine under ubuntu 14.04
(sheepdog 0.7.5-1).

I decided to start the process of upgrading by testing on one machine,
but after the upgrade sheepdog no longer starts. This is the default
version from ubuntu, and using corosync which seems to be functional.
Source Package: sheepdog (0.8.3-4.1)

There is nothing I can see useful in the logs, see below.

I also tried starting the sheep daemon by hand, and see no output and
it appears to not be running immediately afterwards, as if it quits
but without any logging output.

Has anyone gotten sheepdog to start on Ubuntu 16.04? Any other things
I can try, maybe to at least get some debugging output?

My cluster is ok as I added an additional node immediately beforehand,
but would be nice to be able to upgrade the OS on all the machines.

thanks
Philip
