The missing () caused parts of the escripts to be added to the
ExecStartPost line instead of inside the script.
This caused postgresql start to fail under certain conditions.
In certain cases, for example when custom OpenLDAP modules are
compiled into the binary, users may want to override the package used
for OpenLDAP.
This is especially common in setups where LDAP is the primary
authentication source, as good password hashing mechanisms need to be
enabled as extra modules.
The 6.0 changelog notes that systemd support was rewritten. The effects
of that seem to be twofold:
* Redis will silently fail to sd_notify if not built with libsystemd,
breaking our unit configuration.
* It also appears to misbehave if told to daemonize when running under
systemd -- note that upstream's sample unit configuration does not
daemonize:
https://github.com/antirez/redis/blob/unstable/utils/systemd-redis_server.service
Currently, sudo doesn't work in a NixOS container running inside a Nix
build, because Nix's seccomp filter doesn't allow setuid programs. In
any case, runuser is a bit lower-overhead than sudo.
By default, postgres prefixes each log line with a timestamp. On NixOS
logs are written to journal anyway, so they include an external
timestamp, so the timestamp ends up being printed twice, which clutters
the log.
* Add a module option to change the log prefix.
* Set it to upstream default sans timestamp.
This seems to have worked in 15f105d41f (5
months ago) but broke somewhere in the meantime.
The current module doesn't seem to be underdocumented and might need a
serious refactor. It requires quite some hacks to get it to work (see
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/86305#issuecomment-621129942),
or how the ldap.nix test used systemd.services.openldap.preStart and
made quite some assumptions on internals.
Mic92 agreed on being added as a maintainer for the module, as he uses
it a lot and can possibly fix eventual breakages. For the most basic
startup breakages, the remaining openldap.nix test might suffice.
