[DUSTBIN] Timeout at shutdown/poweroff/reboot
[DUSTBIN] Timeout at shutdown/poweroff/reboot
I was wondering if anyone knows about the timeout that occurs when shutting down the system? It happens after X has exited. I'm not entirely sure I could be wrong, but is it related to a LA/Network tmeout?
Does anyone know what this timeout is because it is around 30 seconds and very irritating when powering off etc..?

Re: Timeout at shutdown/poweroff/reboot
I agree, it is extremely irritating. I don't know what LA means, but yeah it's probably "a stop job is running..." for networkmanager. I don't get this stuff when using fluxbox and wpa_cli for wifi. I have noticed if I bring the wifi down before shutting down it doesn't happen, but some other stop job can pop up for something else.DebbyIan wrote:I was wondering if anyone knows about the timeout that occurs when shutting down the system?

It's especially aggravating when you are experimenting and get a zombie or a hung task. There is a way to lower the timeout but I haven't bothered I just try not to reboot, going on five days now, pretty good huh?

LAN = Local Area Network
Sometimes I get a deauthenticating from network message but I'm not using network manager either. What is the timeout you had in mind?

Re: Timeout at shutdown/poweroff/reboot
OK, I'll try again...
Set the timeout in /etc/systemd/system.conf
*puts away feeding spoon*
Code: Select all
# mkdir -p /var/log/journal
# reboot
# journalctl -b -1
# rm -r /var/log/journal
*puts away feeding spoon*

Re: Timeout at shutdown/poweroff/reboot
Did you try what was suggested, ? Maybe post the output, of :
You should see information that you need to do this:
mad and complaining:
"OK, thanks, but please don't put the feeding spoon away, it did not work"
(or I don't understand and need more help) (if it did not work, at least give some information, as to what errors there were or what happened).
I probably shouldn't even do this for you, but your remark and request has
probably just eliminated any chance of you getting more help for one of the
most experienced and helpful members, also Head On A Stick, is part of the
forum staff,...so any way your on your own now, here is the stove, and over there is the refrigerator, if you look around the pots and pans are there also,..
so no more spoon feeding, figure it out your self if you are hungry.
What is the timeout thing when Debian shutsdown
And
On Debian, how to Set the timeout in /etc/systemd/system.conf
P.S Maybe practice what you preach :
Everything I post is use full, the problem is some people do not know how to use it nor the search engines either, etc.
Hint , a apology can go a long ways.
Code: Select all
journalctl -b -1
If you don't understand the solution, or it did not work , instead of gettingHead_on_a_Stick » Set the timeout in /etc/systemd/system.conf

It would have been better to say,Don't post useless info! Go home.

Re: Timeout at shutdown/poweroff/reboot
In my limited experience, and even more limited knowledge base, I have examined the logs (journalctl) after having similar timeout issues. It appears to me, and again I am but an egg, that there is some kind of "race" condition where some process is getting released from dbus while some other process is still expecting to use the released process. Again, that is just a conjecture on my part.
So, what did I do about? First I set the timeout to 10 seconds which was of course helpful but did nothing to eliminate the problem. Then I changed from using gdm to lightdm as the display manager. Many fewer instances of the timeout issue. Then, on a whim, I updated the kernel to a more recent version (this is on Jessie, I was using kernel 3.16 and updated to 4.9), and have not seen any of the timeout issues since.
I know that none of this is a cure but might give some smart person a clue as to what might be going on.

Re: Timeout at shutdown/poweroff/reboot
I think it is a bit of a stretch to call them evil. Quirky perhaps, but evil would imply some intelligent malevolence. Of course the designers of the display managers might be evil, but I seriously doubt it.None1975 wrote: Display managers is a evil. Use startx.

Re: Timeout at shutdown/poweroff/reboot
I just use the keyboard and the terminal, The desktop tray makes a nice perch though
Waiting 30 seconds for it to shut down is no big deal.
Ok, yes that worked, it started just fine,... but when I typedDisplay managers is a evil. Use startx
'stopx', it did not stop, what do I do now ?, I don't mind waiting 30 seconds,
but I been here waiting 2 days now, Garry is out of town, How do I shut this
thing down ?
P.S. I am getting hungry, can anybody spoon feed me ?

Re: Timeout at shutdown/poweroff/reboot
So @GarryRicketson is also @Head_on_a_Stick.
You are posing as multipe IDs.
You started this nonsense by bringing your cuttlery out in the first place. I was simply looking for some geneal hints as to what the causes of timeouts at reboot might be in Debian. You must be so far out of reality if you think people are going to come on here to seek critical technical support from a spoon feeder such as yourself.
So full of himself that he seeks an apology.

Re: [DUSTBIN] Timeout at shutdown/poweroff/reboot
This must be one of the worst analytical thinking in all of universe. Just glancing over posts by Garry and Head_on_a_Stick is enough to see that Garry posts far more detailed responses, often inserting his own experiences and analogies in the mix. In contrast, H_on_a_S posts concise, highly technical responses and not much else. I mean, really...dude.DebbyIan wrote:So @GarryRicketson is also @Head_on_a_Stick.
