Fedora 15 - systemctl failures

Anyone know why these services aren't starting up? It would be awesome if the error messages would actually give some detail...

This all started when I upgraded to Fedora 15. Am hoping *not* to reinstall.

Code:
[root@server system]# systemctl status nfs.service
nfs.service - LSB: Start up the NFS server sevice
          Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/nfs)
          Active: failed since Tue, 31 May 2011 11:26:47 -0400; 1h 39min ago

Here are some more details from /var/log/messages:

For a manual restart of nfs, here's the error:

Code:
May 31 13:19:25 server kernel: [ 6782.902700] svc: failed to register lockdv1 RPC service (errno 111).
May 31 13:19:25 server kernel: [ 6782.923573] svc: failed to register lockdv1 RPC service (errno 111).

May 31 13:19:25 server systemd[1]: Unit nfs.service entered failed state.
And here's what it shows on the command line:

Code:
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/nfs start
Starting nfs (via systemctl):  Error: No space left on device
Job failed. See system logs and 'systemctl status' for details.
[FAILED]
uh, what?! I'm definitely NOT out of space on the device.

Hi there,

Let us know the following information:

1. selinux status. You can check it by typing the following command: sestatus
2. Mount point and space on drive. Use df -h
3. Any exports configured on this server. If yes, Name of exports.
4. Any changes made to the system. Like recent upgrade or installed any packages.

1. SELinux is off.

2. Mount points. Doesn't help that I use /usr on a separate FS...
Code:
rootfs                 39G  1.2G   37G   4% /
udev                  622M  4.0K  622M   1% /dev
tmpfs                 628M     0  628M   0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda3              39G  1.2G   37G   4% /
tmpfs                 628M  612K  627M   1% /run
tmpfs                 628M     0  628M   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs                 628M     0  628M   0% /media
/dev/sdb1             147G  102G   38G  73% /backup
/dev/sda1             194M   77M  107M  42% /boot
/dev/sda2              39G  1.4G   36G   4% /var
tmpfs                 628M  612K  627M   1% /var/run
tmpfs                 628M  612K  627M   1% /var/lock
/dev/sdb1             147G  102G   38G  73% /var/www/html
/dev/sda6              39G  2.2G   35G   6% /home
/dev/sda7              39G  5.3G   32G  15% /usr
3. No idea what you mean in terms of exports.

4. Recent upgrade from Fedora 14 to Fedora 15 caused these headaches.

I think I should do a clean install of Fedora 15, hmm? I *really* didn't want to, but I'm left with little choice. So much stuff is wrong with this upgrade.

I think I have seen this issue before.

Try enabling selinux:

1. Edit /etc/selinux/config and edit as follows:

instead of using

SELINUX=disabled

Make it

SELINUX=permissive

save the file and reboot the system.

Remember it might take sometime for the system to come backup as selinux will be performing labeling on file system.

Once up try to start the services which you were trying before.

And yes by exports I mean did you configure any NFS shares on this server. You can find them by doing: cat /etc/exports

nothing in exports. The only shares I have are cifs based and that's another issue entirely.

I'll see what SELinux does if anything but probably will look at a clean Fedora 15 install...

Yeah, now I have no networking... at least no remote networking, and that's the only way I can interface with this computer. Time for a fresh install!
