few months ago I got access to a VPS with installed Debian 8 Jessie. The strange thing for me was that after perform some action (like service [stop|start|restart], debian not notify me (ex: Restarting nginx: nginx, like old debian 7 wheezy). Yesterday, i installed on my virtual machine Debian 8 Jessie, but the "bug" persists. Should I install something extra library, or to set up them? Thanks in advance.

Debian uses systemd now.

systemctl start example1

Investigate why systemd hangs on startup or on reboot/shutdown.

Increase verbosity via cmdline: Add "systemd.log_target=kmsg systemd.log_level=debug"

[ /etc/default/grub ]
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="systemd.log_target=kmsg systemd.log_level=debug" <--- Add here (by uncommenting you can easily switch to debug)

# update-grub

  • This is very confusing for me. If I understood correctly, if the operation is successful, there is no need for communication. – Zlatin Hristov Oct 22 '15 at 16:16

Systemd is not as verbose as the old SysV scripts, so your described "bug" is intended behaviour.

The old commands, like "service" are just simple symlinks / script which delegate the work to systemd. As far as I know this is the same for the /etc/init.d scripts.
