  • 1.  Unable to start samba after update

    Posted Sat April 16, 2022 09:34 PM
    Hi ,

    We have migrated AIX from 7.1 to 7.2 latest and also updated samba version 4.6.15 to 4.9.3.
    After this i am not able to start the samba services. I found below logs in smbd, nmbd and windbin logs.
    [2022/04/16 20:14:02.029999, 0] ../lib/util/become_daemon.c:124(exit_daemon)
    exit_daemon: STATUS=daemon failed to start: Failed to create session, error code 1
    [2022/04/16 20:14:18.088855, 0] ../lib/util/become_daemon.c:124(exit_daemon)
    exit_daemon: STATUS=daemon failed to start: Failed to create session, error code 1
    [2022/04/17 02:53:42.554476, 0] ../lib/util/become_daemon.c:124(exit_daemon)
    exit_daemon: STATUS=daemon failed to start: Failed to create session, error code 1

    I found same problem on below link/discussion but not sure where i have to update the option --no-process-group as flags in the startup.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi, Sagar
    I noticed no one seemed to have an answer for your question.  I could not find the answer, either. 

    But you might want to check with the Samba community.
