I've recently upgraded my Ubuntu box from 14.04 to 15.04 where systemd is now used as the default. Unfortunatly starting or restarting of service php5-fpm doesn't work. It hangs 3 minutes and then it gets a timeout. This seems to be caused by a process "/bin/systemd-tty-ask-password-agent --watch" which was called by "systemctl start php5-fpm.service". It seems to wait for user input, but there is nothing to submit such an input. Following the outputs of various things in cronological order: ~ $ ps auxwww --forest -> http://pastebin.com/LkbmNtKi ~ $ systemctl list-jobs ~ $ systemctl show -> http://pastebin.com/WaUGmnMV ~ $ systemctl start php5-fpm.service Job for php5-fpm.service failed. See "systemctl status php5-fpm.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details. ~ $ during the command above runs, I've also created some output: ~ $ ps auxwww --forest ~ $ systemctl list-jobs ~ $ systemctl show -> http://pastebin.com/kxzhNTLT After 3 minutes the start failed with a timeout and then: ~ $ systemctl status php5-fpm.service ~ $ systemctl list-jobs ~ $ systemctl show ~ $ lsb_release -a ~ $ dpkg -l | grep ii | grep systemd ~ $ ps aux | grep -i systemd -> http://pastebin.com/eCgb4Y0W If you need further information, please let me know.
Hi, based on the logs, systemd (PID 1) is already starting the service: Mai 04 08:40:47 alex-laptop systemd[1]: Starting The PHP FastCGI Process Manager... 1931 php5-fpm.service start running This means that the authentication phase is already done, and the job is running. /bin/systemd-tty-ask-password-agent and /usr/bin/pkttyagent are left over from the authorization phase and aren't really important. So the fact that php5-fpm.service is not starting has something to do with the way this service is written. Please file a bug against your distribution (Ubuntu), and the package that contains that service.
