I need help troubleshooting the cause of my server crashing on boot.
Wheezy upgraded to Jessie fine using the guide at https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/ ... ex.en.html
I have my system configured to boot to the CLI (no GUI). As soon as the login prompt appears, the system crashes and the server fails to reboot (on the reboot, the screen blanks after the GRUB splash screen and hangs).
I have tried troubleshooting and found I can successfully boot into Jessie using the Recovery Mode (Runlevel 1?) and Sysvinit options using the Advanced Menu of the GRUB boot screen. Because I can do this, I am assuming there is a conflict in the new Systemd init system. When I log into Jessie using the SysvInit option, at the login prompt I see a message:
Code: Select all
[ 46.790265] systemd-logind[1987]: Failed to start user service: Unknown unit: user@1000.service
When Jessie boots into Recovery Mode, does it use Systemd? Since Recovery Mode works, perhaps this is not a problem with Systemd. But for some reason Sysvinit boots normally, and I have full use of my Jessie server using sysvinit.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Mike
