Description
Description
I am using salt-minion on a few machines running Devuan and Debian without systemd.
These machines do not use systemd
On the older machines where I upgraded to version 3007.1 the file /etc/init.d/salt-minion is still available.
However, I did a clean install on a new machine and there /etc/init.d/salt-minion is missing.
After investigating, it seems /etc/init.d/salt-minion is no longer included in the Debian package. I found them in https://github.com/saltstack/salt/blob/master/pkg/old/deb/salt-minion.init with a note to file a bug report if you use the file.
Setup
Manual installation as described in https://docs.saltproject.io/salt/install-guide/en/latest/topics/install-by-operating-system/linux-deb.html of salt-minion 3007.1 on a clean installation of Devuan daedalus
- on-prem machine
- VM (Virtualbox, KVM, etc. please specify)
- VM running on a cloud service, please be explicit and add details
- container (Kubernetes, Docker, containerd, etc. please specify)
- or a combination, please be explicit
- jails if it is FreeBSD
- classic packaging
- onedir packaging
- used bootstrap to install
Steps to Reproduce the behavior
Install salt-minion from the Debian packages and try to start the service by running /etc/init.d/salt-minion or service salt-minion start
Expected behavior
The file /etc/init.d/salt-minion is available and salt-minion starts on systems without systemd
