Cannot make whereami work on Ubuntu 15.04

Asked by Danil Smirnov

I've installed whereami on my laptop with Ubuntu 15.04. Unfortunately I could not manage to make it work when resuming my laptop - there is not messages in syslog nor running my commands configured in whereami.conf. It works when I do service whereami reload but not when the laptom resuming from the suspend state (RESUME_LOCATION set to auto in apm.conf).

Did you configure it in /etc/whereami/whereami.conf

?

Of course I've configured detect.conf, whereami.conf and apm.conf. I've set set DEBUGWHEREAMI 1 in detect.conf but there are no output in syslog after laptop resume.

If you add the:

service whereami reload

to run when the system wakes up from suspend etc, it should be OK.

Very ugly workaround... :( There should be better way to use this software...

I suggest you report a bug, considering Vivid only has a month or so support, you may want to upgrade to Wily
