Bug Description
Binary package hint: upstart
Since a few weeks ago, some essential services are no longer started at bootup. I noticed that the following (and probably many more) services are not running after a reboot:
- cupsd
- sshd
- atd
- ...?
They can be manually started using "service" or "start/stop", but they are not started automatically at boot time. This means, I cannot connect to my box after a reboot, because sshd is not running, and my scheduled jobs don't run, because atd isn't there, etc.
Those services have worked reliably in the past, and I don't know what actually happened. I suspect that it's related to upstart, but I'm not sure. It looks a rather general problem to me, as it seems to affect a lot of services.

It looks like an issue with upstart indeed: ubuntuforums. org/showthread. php?p=8548144

The guys on the forum fixed it by downgrading Upstart 0.6.3-11 to 0.6.3-10.
