Interface showing NO-CARRIER & DORMANT, but working

Long time Linux user, first time Arch user.  Trying to configure ArchARM on a Rasp Pi (Not sure that's related).
Note - I'm totally new to systemctl and netctl, been using Redhat-like systems for a long time....
I was converting the standard install of dhcpcd to a static IP assignment.  I did the following:
cp /etc/netctl/examples/ethernet-static /etc/netctl/eth0
vi /etc/netctl/eth0 # (and set IP, gateway, etc. as appropriate)
systemctl stop [email protected]
systemctl disable [email protected]
ip link set eth0 down #netctl seems to need this or its not happy
systemctl start [email protected]
systemctl enable [email protected] # Not sure what is netctl vs netctl-auto
At this point all was good and things were working as expected.
I then rebooted the system and when I reconnected, I looked at the network:
[root@alarmpi ~]# ip addr show dev eth0
4: eth0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DORMANT qlen 1000
link/ether b8:27:eb:c2:4e:2e brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.168.1.4/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global eth0
Note - the interface is working, I'm connecting (via SSH) over it, etc.  But, it makes no sense to me why it would indicate NO-CARRIER and DORMANT.  Why is the OS not recognizing the link as UP?  Seems the NO-CARRIER and UP/LOWER_UP flags are conflicting, no?
Thanks.
Also, any pointers on learning more about systemctl and netctl would be appreciated (can't find a good primer anywhere...)

Welcome to the bbs, however, please note ARM is covered elsewhere: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=153431
The command's output is misleading. You see another UP inside the brackets, that's the relevant one.
Please have a look at the wiki pages here first for pointers. For netctl the devs also put a lot of effort in comprehensive man pages which the wiki page tries to complement I guess.

  • Images No Longer Showing in Design View but Work Online

    Here is the live site that works - http://www.drinkupsandiego.com
    Everything works in the live site and it has been up and running for a couple of years.  I went to modify the site today in DW CC and none of the images showed up.  I noticed that the site was not defined so I did this by adding a new site and defining the root folder.  Still no images.  So I look at the assets on the right side of DW and it shows that the image folder is now called "images.jpg" instead of the correct "images" name.  If I go into my documents the folder "images.jpg" does not exist.  I then clicked on one of the broken images and selected the correct folder. The image showed up but when I look at the code it is now "<img src="images.jpg/.....>".  Again, that folder does not exist in my documents.  I went back to the site definition and clicked on advanced and identified the folder for images as "images" but when I click on it it comes back as "images.jpg"  I am baffled - I know this has to be some sort of silly fix so thank you in advance for anyone who can help.
    Gary

    Odd, I just moved all the files in the assets section from "images.jpg" to "images" and it all works.  But I am still baffled why DW created a separate folder.

  • CD shows up as blank, but works in boot camp

    My mac mini (2010) has started to not show up CDs lately.  I insert an audio CD and it comes up with a message that I have inserted a blank CD. When I do the same in Boot Camp (windows 7) it works fine.  I am running Lion.  This didn't happen when I installed Lion, it happened only in the last couple of weeks.  I tried the method in one post about creating a new user account and trying from there, but to no avail.  Any ideas short of completely reinstalling Lion?

    Hello,
    To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...
    Open System Preferences>Accounts, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
    Do CDS/DVDs work in the new account?

    Lots of conflicting info here.
    The page you linked to is using a different .swf:
    <param name="movie" value="flash/topslideshowtennis.swf" />
    which calls for swfversion (actually this means which Flash version to use)
    <param name="swfversion" value="6.0.65.0" />
    which is a really, really old version.. not sure if that even works.... change to version 10.
    Since you have the .swf in a different folder than the HTML Web page, there could very well be pathing problems if the Flash uses any external files ... like images or .xml files. Are there any other Flash related files besides the .swf? What else is in the "flash" folder?
    Your code posted above probably won't work either
    <param name="swfversion" value="15.0.0.0" />
    There is no Flash player version 15 (yet)... change that to version 10 also.
    Then there is the matter of coding errors on the page... of which there are many!
    Validate your code here:

  • KPI's Score cannot show in one context but works fine in another scorecard

    Dear experts,
    We are now working on SSM 10.1 SP07, and we encountered a issue that the same measure cannot display the score value in one scorecard,so
    we have created a new scorecard and add these measures,all works fine, any ideas from you? thanks very much!
    best wishes,
    Yanping.li

    Hi,
    Sometimes it is not that measure which is causing problem, their are chances that due to some other measure you are unable to see the score or status.
    Can you see the score of that particular KPI in the KPI detail view. ?
    To test , try to put all same measures and see if all the score is coming.

  • TS2972 First night I was able to watch 2 TV shows (45 min each) with no problems, but thereafter programs will not stream without constant pause to buffer. Weather conditions are ideal and my internet comes from crappy hugesnet, but worked fine the first

    First night I was able to watch 2 TV shows (45 min each) with no problems, but thereafter programs will not stream without constant pause to buffer. Weather conditions are ideal and my internet comes from crappy hugesnet, but worked fine the first night.

    The speed may have been ok at that time and is too inconsistent/too slow overall. interference may have proven to be more of an issue since as well. If using public DNS that will provide Intermittant results
    I'm sure using a hotspot would be fine but it depends on your viewing habits. An HD movie is around 4-5GB. It would also be subject to speed. requirements so best to test to see how it compares.
    You would have to check with your Carrier if hotspot it's enabled then just to into your settings and toggle it ON

  • My iPhone 4 shows the carrier name, I can go online with my data plan, but there are no bars and I can't make phone calls.

    My iPhone 4 shows the carrier name, I can go online with my data plan, but there are no bars and I can't make phone calls.
    It worked for some time, less than a week, I made phone calls and all, and all of a sudden the problem mentioned above happened. Now I can't make any phone calls. I can go online with it, even with my Data plan, I can go to the app store (of course) but can't make any phone calls.
    Please help, this is frustrating.

    Did you already try the troubleshooting mentioned here? http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/calls/
    Also try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple lo comes up again. You will not lose any data doing this.

  • EDGE indicator shows I have it, but it doesn't work

    I was just out not too far from my house and tried to get online. The E on the interface shows up, but I try to get mail and I'm told that EDGE isn't working or not able to connect or something like that. I just checked the coverage map and I'm in the moderate zone.
    Are the maps incorrect? I got back in to the city and could connect just fine.
    Dave

    Just curious if you've tried any troubleshooting on the iPhone.
    One thing you may want to try is toggling Airplane mode. This resets all of your network connections. Go into Settings; you'll see the switch to turn it on. Turn it on and wait about 10 seconds, then turn it back off. Wait for the iPhone to return to its normal signal strength for the area, and then try EDGE again.
    If that doesn't resolve it, try power cycling. Hold the sleep/wake button until you see the red slider. Slide it to power off the iPhone. Again, wait about 10 seconds, turn it back on by pressing that same button once. When the Apple disappears and the iPhone goes to the Home screen and has full signal strength, try EDGE again.

  • I have an iPhone 4 on IOS5. I signed up for itunes match. After everything uploaded to the cloud, my songs are messed up. I'll select a song and the title will show with the right art work but a different song will start playing.  Anyone have a solution?

    I have an iPhone 4 on IOS5. I signed up for itunes match. After everything uploaded to the cloud, my songs are messed up. I'll select a song and the title will show with the right art work but a different song will start playing.  Some songs won't play at all even though they do appear in the itunes store. The artwork almost always shows u blank until you turn it to landscape then it will appear. Anyone know what's going on?

    I have found that scrolling through the album list (past albums without art) triggers the progress wheel next to the wifi symbol. You can scroll quickly through the whole collection and then wait! Artwork will appear gradually...
    However, repeat visits to the Music App might initially show no artwork again, but it might spontaneously appear more quickly this time. The bad news is that the whole Music App is now sluggish as ****...

  • My old appleID use email with domain already deactivate. So I changed my appleID and primary email and now I can not access iCloud with iOS7. ICloud shows my old appleID but I can't change it. How do I get iCloud to work with my updated ID?

    So I changed my appleID and primary email and now I can not access iCloud with iOS7. ICloud shows my old appleID but I can't change it. How do I get iCloud to work with my updated ID?

    Hi ccharat,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you did a good job editing your Apple ID and primary email address, but you didn’t sign out of iCloud on your iOS device before hand. What you may need to do in this situation is go back to the Apple ID website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the email address that is signed in with iCloud (there is no need to verify the account after editing it back to the old account, just changing it back is enough). Once your Apple ID is back to the original account, delete the iCloud account from the iOS device and be sure to keep all info on the device when prompted. After you delete the iCloud account, go back to the website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the new address. Once it is back to the account you would like, you can sign into the iCloud on the iOS device with that new account and merge all of the data when prompted. Please use the following article as a reference.
    iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5223
    Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
    Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
    Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
    Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
    Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
    Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
    I hope this helps,  
    -Joe

It seems lots of peolple were having issues before ML, but I as fine. Since ML, I am having all kinds of issues!

    Yeah, I literally have tried everything except deleting my iCloud account (I'm close, but that would require so many changes that it is way too painful to consider at this point).
    I am still waiting to hear back from Apple Support. Hopefully something can be done, or they can do a reset on their end.
    Thanks for taking the time to respond though, much appreciated!
