[Bug 1724508] Re: package samba 2:4.3.11+dfsg-0ubuntu0.16.04.11 failed to install/upgrade: il sottoprocesso installato script di post-installation ha restituito lo stato di errore 1

[Andreas Hasenack]

Thanks for filing this bug in Ubuntu.

This crash report might come from the previous start attempt, when you
had an incorrect smb.conf file. The smb.conf file attached to this bug
right now is correct syntatically, even though testparm(1) gives some
warnings about it.

Looking at the attached smb.conf file, if that is still the file you
have on that machine, I can see that you are specifying explicit network
interfaces for samba to use: lo and enp6s0. If that enp6s0 interface is
not up by the time samba is starting, samba won't start. That could
happen, for example, if this is a desktop system and that network
interface is managed by network-manager. It could only be activated
after you login.

The attached logs unfortunately don't tell why the service failed to
start. If you could please attach the log files from /var/log/samba/ we
might be able to tell why that happened.

Is the service running normally now?

Thanks

Title:
  package samba 2:4.3.11+dfsg-0ubuntu0.16.04.11 failed to
  install/upgrade: il sottoprocesso installato script di post-
  installation ha restituito lo stato di errore 1

Status in samba package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  original samba.conf used initially and samba did not start, so changed samba.conf to be simpler and readable. After the modification of samba.conf samba started succesfully, but at reboot appears the system error reported here.
  My initial scope was to have samba client working OK in order to use an smb resource shared by my modem/router via USB and the smb service enabled on that usb disk connected to the modem/router. Other clients (windows and previous ubuntu 14) connected OK with this smb resource.
