the same with docker
Hi @Zx-EvM -- this error can be safely ignored. WSL doesn't use Upstart to start processes at system boot. If you work closely with Upstart, this might cause some surprises for you; the message is informative to people who work directly with initctl, upstart, etc that WSL doesn't yet expose that functionality. If that's not your use case, then as you have observed, mongodb itself works.
Incidentally, just a heads-up for you / to set expectations: WSL is beta software in this release. Some companies of late have had "beta" releases that are really production-ready. But WSL really is traditional beta software: There are many things that it does correctly; there are also many things that are still in progress so don't work yet. It's typical to hit messages such as this one, or to encounter tools that don't completely work yet, etc. Feel free to look through the tickets filed in this bug-tracker; you'll quickly get a sense of the state of the Bash-on-Ubuntu-on-Windows feature.
If you're comfortable with that, cool! It's great to have another beta user, and to know about this error message. If this error message is causing any actual problems for you, or if you have any trouble using mongodb or other tools, folks here would be glad to help. If you do, please fill out the template that comes with the ticket; that information is needed to help identify what underlying kernel features might be misbehaving or not yet implemented.
Hi @Leeqong -- Docker is actually a separate/existing issue (and a more complicated one) -- unlike mongodb, it doesn't start at all), and is tracked by #85 . There's a bunch of discussion on that ticket; feel free to read it for background.
Hi @aseering thanks. That is, there is a likelihood that this (and other) errors will be corrected in some time?

I really have only one error with install MongoDB in Windows Linux Subsystem here https://github.com/Microsoft/BashOnWindows/issues/796
@Zx-EvM -- errors are definitely being corrected in general; they typically stage a batch of fixes once every week or two. You may need to join the Windows Insider Fast Ring ([EDIT] in the "Windows Insider Program" section inside Settings) in order to get them more quickly, though Microsoft hasn't yet really explained how updates are going to look after the recent Anniversary Update release. (Note that the Fast Ring is a pre-release version of all of Windows, so you may find bugs in things other than WSL.)
This particular message isn't preventing anyone from using mongodb, and fixing Upstart support is conceptually hard (it handles Linux's boot process but WSL doesn't need to boot), and Upstart itself is deprecated and will go away entirely if/when WSL updates to be based on Ubuntu 16.04. (It'll be replaced by systemd, which is even more complicated :-) ) I don't work at Microsoft myself (I'm just a user), but if I had to guess, I'd say that other bigger blockers and easier-to-fix errors are probably higher on their priority list.
Incidentally, if you think this particular failure should be higher priority, the way to make that happen is to file it here and find people who care about it and get them to vote for it.
Incidentally, if anyone reading this wants a workaround for getting these sorts of init scripts running at Windows system boot, I've posted a comment here that explains how to do so:
There is a workaround here for the Upstart issue: https://www.nesono.com/node/368
Same situation when running Shiny Server, but I figured out, Thanks to @etatus
Shiny Server is a server program from RStudio, Inc. that makes Shiny applications available over the web. Shiny is a web application framework for the R statistical computation language.
reproducible example and reference :
sudo apt-get install r-base
sudo R -e "install.packages(c('shiny', rmarkdown'), repos = 'https://cran.rstudio.com/')"
sudo apt-get install gdebi-core
wget https://download3.rstudio.org/ubuntu-12.04/x86_64/shiny-server-1.4.7.815-amd64.deb
sudo gdebi shiny-server-1.4.7.815-amd64.deb
sudo dpkg-divert --local --rename --add /sbin/initctl
sudo ln -s /bin/true /sbin/initctl
please cc @Zx-EvM

Same error when apt-get purge openssh-server -y
in a fresh installation.
This is a very good article on the change from upstart to systemd that explains pretty much everything https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers#Common_Problems
In my case, solved with a fresh installation.
same error when service nginx restart
@wanderself - upstart
service is currently not available on WSL. Alternatively, you can start the service by sudo /etc/init.d/nginx start
.
For me this did the trick:
cat > /usr/sbin/policy-rc.d <<EOF
#!/bin/sh
exit 101
EOF
chmod +x /usr/sbin/policy-rc.d
dpkg-divert --local --rename --add /sbin/initctl
ln -s /bin/true /sbin/initctl
Since i was using docker i also found this one really useful: https://blog.jayway.com/2017/04/19/running-docker-on-bash-on-windows/ Which allows you to only have your containers stored on your main docker system rather than on both
I install MongoDB in Linux Subsystem with
sudo apt-get install mongodb
and when I try to start it with
sudo service mongodb start
I have the following errorMongoDB really starts but what is this message/error
initctl: Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused
and how to fix it? Have a official solution to this problem?I reset my Windows 10 Pro x64 three days ago (on clean HDD). At the moment in
Settings -> Update & Security
not offered any updates to fix
