samba - Jun 2017 - Upgrading samba from jessie (4.2) to stretch (4.5) in AD mode...

Mandi! L.P.H. van Belle via samba
  In chel di` si favelave...

Sorry, forgot to say:
> For any debian samba 4.1.x and debian samba 4.2.x upgrades to 4.5 and up 
I've seend that (on list archive, or in some debian bugs, i don't
remember) but seems not relevant to me bacause i've had just do
'classic upgrade', eg i was just in AD mode when upgrade from 4.2 to
4.5.


Because i've snapshotted the VM before doing the upgrade, i can give it
a second try.

But provide me some hints on steps to reproduce...

Ok, my collegue reply.

Simply and temporary commented out the:

	server role = active directory domain controller

in smb.conf, let dpkg do the postinst and then uncommented back.

Looking at the postinst script, seems that try to explicit run the
/etc/init.d/winbind init script, while in ad mode winbind is run by
other mean (samba-ad systemd stanza).

Better to fire up a bug in debian BTS?

Offer still valid.

Which version of samba did you upgrade to ?
Where did it come from, a Debian repo or Louis's ?
Which package is the postinst script in ?

If I can get this info, I will check just what the script is trying to
do.
