[SOLVED] Zentyal 3.2.4 upgrade Samba4

[ian]

Hello,

Afther the upgrade of Samba4 on a zentyal office server v3.2.4, Samba works not correct anymore.
The file share service is not started at boottime, and it is not possible to restart the service from the administration GUI.

A ticket is created.

Best regards,
Ian

Just FYI: a downgrade to samba4_4.1.0rc4-zentyal4 helped me to get samba running again. While I did not notice any immidiate implications, take note to downgrade at your own risk.

Good luck guys with the fix, hope you find the problem soon!

So long,

Björn

Good my English is a bit bad but it happened to me also that problem the solution I got was to start the ldap service from rc.local and then restart the samba service because why not but when upgrading samba fails to boot up corresta

/ etc / init.d / libnss-ldap restart

Hello hgeorge123

Thanks for the reply, but execution the command / etc / init.d / libnss-ldap restart does not solve the problem.

Even the latest updates of today zentyal-samba and zentyal-users do not fix the problem.

On boot the start of samba is verry slow, and the administrator GUI says File share stopped, restart the service does not work.

Best regards,
Ian

Hi,

I have deaktivated 'File Sharing' under 'Modules'. Now Zentyal is running without problems. Its only a workarount, no solution.

To downgrade samba to previous version:

First add a experimental repository where this version can be found (ppa:kernevil/zentyal-experimental):

Code: [Select]

apt-get install -y python-software-properties && add-apt-repository ppa:kernevil/zentyal-experimental && sudo apt-get update
(the command above also installs unattended-upgrades - I don't know if this a problem).

With the new repository set, run the following:

Code: [Select]

apt-get install samba4=4.1.0rc4-zentyal4
It worked immediately for me.

Adelson

Alternatively. you can install it from cache:

Code: [Select]

sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/samba4_4.1.0rc4-zentyal4_amd64.deb

You're right fwhr !

If the file is in cache this is more elegant.

However, if someone deleted the cache through 'apt-get clean' the package can also be downloaded directly from:

Hi Ian,

i got the same problem here... hope there is soon a solution or update available.

It´s really annoying not to be able to access all the shared files...

There is a new Samba4module released. If you don't see it in the webgui yet, do a

Code: [Select]

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgradeAfter install you can press the restart button in the webgui to get filesharing running again.

This worked for me. Thank you!

Well, I've got a server down due to this problem. Seems like history repeats itself?
Zentyal 3.0, samba was updated two days ago and that triggered the issue.

Cheers.
