Autoinstaller kills xinetd

LarsenD

Regular Pleskian
This happens in around 30% of the cases when I run CLI autoinstaller to update/install/remove packages.

Code:
Patches were installed successfully.
The changes were applied successfully.
Synchronizing the Debian APT package index files...

# pgrep -lf xinetd || service xinetd start
Starting internet superserver: xinetd.

# pgrep -lf xinetd || service xinetd start
849 /usr/sbin/xinetd -pidfile /var/run/xinetd.pid -stayalive

As you can see, after the autoinstaller finishes, xinetd is not running and has to be started again.
 
To see a more detailed log, you could use over the command line:

export PLESK_INSTALLER_DEBUG=yes
/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/autoinstaller ....
This will force a more detailled output on the screen, as well in the corresponding autoinstaller - log - file for this instance. You can now investigate what caused the issue, that xinetd couldn't be restarted during or after the completed autoinstaller process.
