"failed to contact portmap" error when stopping nfs-kernel-server

[Dan Delaney]

Binary package hint: nfs-kernel-server

I recently installed Ubuntu 6.06 AMD64 with the nfs-common and nfs-kernel-server packages. Both start fine, but when I stop nfs-kernel-server I get the following log entries:

kernel: [4135744.722833] nfsd: last server has exited
kernel: [4135744.722838] nfsd: unexporting all filesystems
kernel: [4135744.724273] RPC: failed to contact portmap (errno -5).

Portmap is still running, so why does RPC report that it can't connect to portmap?

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.

As there has been no activity on this bug and no response to a request for more information for several months, I'm closing this report as invalid. If you can still reproduce this problem with Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, please reopen the bug.
