Shut Down - Reboot Problems

[davidgf]

Same problem here, sometimes reboots/halts in seconds and some times it takes 2 minutes!

Fedora 17 will not be released, until this bug is fixed, good.

According to a recent comment on this bug, it could help to do following as root before reboot/halt:

service network stop

systemd-44-8.fc17 is available from koji. It's supposed to fix the shutdown delay problem.

Hi All,

I found what may be a clue to the shutdown and reboot issues.

If you run ldconfig as root, the shutdown problem is fixed, but it is only a one shot, after the next boot you are back to square one.

Running ldconfig had no effect on the warm boot problem.

I also tried ldconfig -n to regenerate the linker cache, however, it did not effect any change nor display any errors.

I have a "gut" feeling that we are missing a link or a directory.

What do you think?

Running 44-8. System restarts/shuts down, but only after a couple-three minutes.

Yes, I know, I get the same results with either version.

I had the same 2-3 min. wait with both.
I have never seen any other version of linux do this strange time out stuff.
There is something holding up the shutdown process.

I don't think it systemd, I am looking into the settings for systemd.

Latest round of updates fixed this for me unless i was really lucky with 5 successful reboots in a row, in that case i should buy a lottery ticket

[rocko64x2]

Yes, the last update fixed mine to!
I wonder what it was, I really couldn'see any thing glaring out at me in the settings.

The strange thing is that the last update messed up the gdm a little.
I now don't have a user list to pick from.. LOL.

Well I guess I will start looking at that one.

These guys are a lot faster than me, I'm sure they will find the bug before I do.

It is still fun to hunt, I learn a little more each time.
It's good fun.

Yes, latest updates fixed my computers' shotdown/reboot issues.

Alas, I'm all updated, but still have the shutdown/reboot delay - usually around 1.5 minutes.

Shutdown finally works well - no issues.

uname -r
3.3.4-4.fc17.x86_64

yum list installed | grep systemd
systemd.x86_64                        44-8.fc17                 @updates-testing

Where'd you get kernel 3.3.4-4? Seems like the latest is -3.

[nonamedotc]

updates-testing. It was available as an update an hour back (well, i updated an hour ago).

I just figured that out - I didn't have the updates-testing repo enabled for some reason. Downloading new kernel right now...

No joy - the new kernel did not fix the problem for me

I don't think it's systemd either. I've been trying them this afternoon, and right down to 44-4 the problem is the same. What is going on?

What happens to the reboot time, if you stop the network service before reboot?

su
service network stop
