What were you trying to do that didn't work?
If a customer performs a leapp upgrade where /var/run is a physical directory and not the expected symlink `var/run -> ../run` this can lead to later issues after rebooting during the upgrade.
Related to issue here: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/7079063
What is the impact of this issue to you?
The system either drops to a dracut shell mid-upgrade or has login failures post-upgrade
Please provide the package NVR for which the bug is seen:
leapp-0.18.0-1.el8_10.noarch.rpm
How reproducible is this bug?:
Reproducible
Steps to reproduce
- unlink /var/run
- mkdir /var/run
- Run leapp upgrade
- reboot and see leapp upgrade completes.
- Either booting to the RHEL 9 kernel fails with various service failures (audit, network-manager, authorization, dbus) or login fails post-upgrade (boot to Troubleshooting mode via DVD ISO or use systemd.debug-shell=1)
Expected results
Let's add either an inhibitor or at least a High message warning customers about this unsupported configuration as I think this will improve the customer's experience.
Actual results
Upgrade completes but after rebooting either boot fails or customer unable to login due to PAM failure.
