https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=229487 Bug ID: 229487 Summary: Password database out of sync after binary update from 10.3 Product: Base System Version: 11.2-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: grembo@FreeBSD.org After updating multiple machines from 10.3 to 11.2 using freebsd-update(8), they all suffer from the same problem: # pw useradd -n removemenow -u 3333 -g nobody -s /bin/false -h - pw: user 'removemenow' disappeared during update At this point removemenow is in /etc/master.passwd and I can also find traces of it in pwd.db, yet: # id removemenow id: removemenow: no such user Running # pwd_mkdb -p /etc/master.passwd fixes the issue, but this is quite irritating. Also note that pwd.db has the time timestamp as master.passwd after the update (so something got rewritten there) and it also changes after running "pw". This is most likely a duplicate of #165954, still opening it, as it affects 11.2-RELEASE (and therefore should probably be mentioned in RELEASE ERRATA). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
