My /var/log/boot.log shows this under Ubuntu 14.04: ...  * Starting servicename <br>chown: invalid user: username<br>No passwd entry for user 'username'<br> * Starting ...<br> ...The init script /etc/init.d/servicename does not contain such chown command.How can I found out, where this chown comes from?
Ubuntu init script failed - trying to find out more detail about the error
ubuntu;boot;upstart;active directory
The service servicename needs a user from Active Directory using PBIS (formerly Likewise Open). By the way, PBIS stands for PowerBroker Identity Services.So the PBIS service has to be fully up. After that the service can start with that user. If Jenkins's init script is the very last one, it worked.NOTE: So, be careful when services depend on other services being started by init.
