Hi,

Up until recently I had sssd running on a ubuntu machine for 10 months. This machine has an identical setup to 20 other ones. When i try to restart sssd i get the following error:

root@perf-hpc01:/var/log/sssd# systemctl status sssd.service

● sssd.service - System Security Services Daemon

Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/sssd.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

Jun 16 11:08:39 perf-hpc01 systemd[1]: sssd.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

If i look at my sssd.log (the only one that had something written to it), I see:

(Fri Jun 16 11:08:39:282642 2017) [sssd] [main] (0x0010): pidfile exists at /var/run/sssd.pid

I have my debug level set to 10.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
