Univention Bugzilla – Bug 36971
show motd if system-setup has been aborted during installation or after text mode installation

A special message of the day (motd) should be shown during ssh/console logins if system-setup has been aborted during installation or if the text mode installation has been used. +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #36968 +++ During installation if USS has been aborted via Strg-q/ctrl-q (or something else bad happened), a message should be shown that the configuration of the system has been aborted and is continued on the next boot via USS in graphical mode or via web browser. A similar message should be shown when the text mode installation when package/GRUB installation is done and before cleanup/reboot.
The UCR template motd.setup has been modified and creates a message for Amazon AMIs if the UCR variable server/amazon is set. Otherwise a d-i system setup message is generated, that describes that the server is not configured yet. The message is now also activated during installation if - text mode installation has been used or - the browser has been closed via Strg-q/ctrl-q or USS has somehow failed/been aborted. This is achieved by setting system/setup/showloginmessage=true Package: univention-system-setup Version: 8.1.65-18.805.201411271447 User: sschwardt Branch: ucs_4.0-0 Scope: errata4.0-0
The message is only shown if univention-pam is installed. This is currently not always the case → Bug 37129.
OK: r56248 r56239 OK: ucr get system/setup/showloginmessage FIXED: 2014-11-21-univention-system-setup.yaml → r56394 OK: announce_errata -V 2014-11-21-univention-system-setup.yaml (In reply to Sönke Schwardt-Krummrich from comment #2) > The message is only shown if univention-pam is installed. This is currently > not always the case → Bug 37129. FAIL: /etc/motd.setup exists but is not shown because univention-pam is not installed FAIL: This renders this bug mostly useless as the message should be printed during univention-system-setup-boot, where univention-pam is not installed. Until then I consider this issue not to be resolved - it should not be released as-is → REOPEN
Bug 37129 will be fixed later - for now the modified motd is okay.
