Hello together,

I am facing an issue with my Icinga2 after
apt update and apt upgrade

I cant start any Icinga service anymore and when I try to install or update only icinga2 package i get this error.
Any Ideas on this?

Same problem. I am still researching. I think the new blogpost is interesting.

Would it help to reinstall icinga?
Im really under pressure to make the system run again and I cant find any solution on this.

A new installation did nothing for me. My solution, since it is critical to the company, is to restore your backup. I am currently testing the fix in my Icinga2 test environment.

Sadly I dont have any backup, because I am in Test Environment.
But I think It would help to install and older Version of icinga2 to not face this issue.

apt-get install icinga2=2.13.7-1

apt-get install icinga2-bin=2.13.7-1+ubuntu20.04
apt-get install icinga2=2.13.7-1+ubuntu20.04

If the issue was a circular dependency in the config then your system is already broken, you just may not know it yet. 2.14 does us a nice favor by detecting that and rejecting the config.
