Ninety second shutdown delay: "A stop job is running for system logging service"

[broadstairs]

I can find no reason for rsyslog to have been installed on my system, I may have missed something but I don't think so.

I have exactly the same problem on my laptop.
By removing rsyslog as suggested here, the problem was fixed.

However, I also have a virtual machine with virtualbox and there i have no issues.
So this is a little strange...

Many thanks for the tip.

Are you sure that rsyslog is installed in that VM?

I have double checked and you are right: rsyslog was not installed on that virtual machine.
But I have just installed it (just for the sake of testing) and the problem appeared on the VM also.

By removing rsyslog, the problem disappeared.

Sorry for confusion.
Again, many thanks.

Just to point out there is bug 1200682 which is ongoing. See earlier in this thread.
