Several systemd services failed on fresh installation
Hi, I installed Arch with the latest iso a few weeks ago.
Now I saw services failing.
I disabled everything that refers to krb (kerberos), because I don't need it yet.
But there are 2 failed services left, I don't know how to solve them loading. Or If it is a good idea to disable them too, because I don't know what they are for:
mdadm.service
systemd-journal-upload.service
Thank you for your help.
JD
mdadm is for RAID. And for all systemd services, you can read the relevant man page to see what it does.
Not a Sysadmin issue, moving to NC....

ITunes 9.0 install problem: iPod service fails to start, installer quits
Hi,
I tried to upgrade my iTunes from 8.XXX(I think it was latest 8) to 9.0 but run into this problem where the installer tries to start the iPod service and fails. The installer can not continue any more and it has to be rolled back. I uinstalled 8.xx and tried again but same result. I also tried the suggestion in another thread about stopping the AppleMobileDevice service and removing the folder but it did not help. This is the error message:
"Product: iTunes -- Error 1920. Service 'iPod Service' (iPod Service) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."
I am logged in as the admin so I do have sufficient privileges.
Is any one having the same problem? How do I make it work? I am using Win XP-Pro SP3 32bit.
Thanks

I also unistalled the itunesbabd quicktime and now I can't get it to download. It keeps sticking. I am concerned that my library is gone. I have no way of backing my files, laptop.
I was finally able to make it work. I did the following steps:
1. Delete/unistall every thing related to Apple/iTunes
2. Delete itunes folder if its still there.
3. open MSCONFIG->General->check off 'Load Startup Items'->click 'ok'
4. Reboot
5. Install iTunes
6. You can turn on Load Startup Items after iTunes installs.
Hope this help. Thanks for all the help. It sure was annoying!!!! -
[SOLVED] systemd : services failing to start on boot
I have removed sysvinit completely as per the systemd wiki pages.
I don't usually re-boot very often so I'm not sure exactly when the problem started.
I only noticed this problem about 4 or 5 days ago.
But now whenever I reboot my machine 2 services fail consistently.
adsl.service
colord.service
They both start flawlessly once I can log in at a console.
I'm using kde and in the last couple of days, while trying to fix my problem, the kdm service has failed to start a couple of times too - saying there is no X server.
Before switching to systemd I never had any of these problems using the old rc.conf method. My DAEMONS array had the adsl service start after the network service.
I need some help and advice to find out what is causing the problem and how to fix it.

That seems to confirm your theory.
eth0 link is not up when attempting to start colord and adsl
So the $64,000 question:
How do I defer them until eth0 is ready?
Or how can I force the eth0 link to be up before colord or adsl try to use it?

Systemd service failing on boot
Hello, im new to Arch and systemd
When I boot my computer the sabnzbd service fails to start, but if i start it manually afterwards it works fine.
I can make it work by adding a 'sleep 10' to the .service file but that seems like a hack and I'd like to learn the correct way.
It seems as though the sabnzbd.service is starting before the /run tmpfs partition has been mounted but I dont know.
I'm hoping someone smarter than me knows the answer to this
Thanks
Dave

Systemd service conventions on package installation and removal
If a package contains systemd service files, is there an expectation that the services are started/enabled during install and stopped/disabled during removal?
No. Leave that to the user. The only thing that you may want to do is add a message to the install script's post_install function to remind the user.

Thank you for your suggestion. Unfortunately it does not work. Out of 4 boots, 3 time I ended up with blank screen. Interestingly, in the last boot I was able to switch to tty1 just after screen went blank and managed to log in to tty. I've restarted the kdm.service then manually in hope the image will be restored, but it wasn't. The restart of kdm then made the screen totally blank and I was unable to switch to tty anymore.
Is it possible that radeon module in kernel has some slow initialization procedure and if X requires its services before it is properly initialized it ends up with blank screen? -
[solved] systemd services not starting at boot (or at all)
On my router, some systemd services fail to start at boot.
The services are :
adsl (pppoe connetction on the wan interface)
shorewall (funny again for a router)
logind (brings up only tty1, and not the others with a 'timeout' error)
adsl starts fine manually after booting up
the others don't work, I have to launch shorewall with the old sysvinit rc script (and it works)
I really don't know, what happened to logind...
Last edited by scar (2012-11-30 10:20:44)cups: avahi client failed
adsl: timeout (ppp0 running on eth0, the service did not found eth0)
shorewall: did not work by the systemctl command, only with the old rc script
I'm not sure if there was an error with logind, but I've had only tty1, not all the others (I have not touched /etc/inittab)
since this was a very old install (but up to date), I've decided to reinstall the whole thing,
Everything works
(But reinstalling does not solve any problem, it erases the problems...)

Tip regarding the "systemd[1]: Failed to start Journal Service" error
Just a tip regarding the well-known
systemd[1]: Failed to start Journal Service
error (which I ran into last weekend) to maybe save one or two among you a couple of hours of your time:
The error is described here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=151012 as well as in several other threads in other language boards / in other forums etc. It is usually (as in the linked thread) 'solved' by reinstalling the system - good old Windows magic, also useful when dealing with systemd.
The Problem with this error is that you do not get into your system. Instead, systemd will print you the mentioned "Failed to start Journal Service" error message a couple of million times. There are also no logs that you could retrieve (when booting from a livesystem) and that would give you any helpful hints, since journal is systemd's logging service, old-style system logs are not kept, and the dmesg log doesn't survive the reboot with default settings.
As pointed out in the above mentioned thread, you will see a few more instructive error messages when adding 'emergency' to the kernel line in the bootloader config.
Now there may be plenty of reasons why the systemd journal service might not work. The most common and most annoying, however, appears to be this one:
In this case you will see that the problem actually lies in
systemd[1]: Cannot open /etc/machine-id: No such file or directory
Now, 'man machine-id' reveals that "the /etc/machine-id file contains the unique machine id of the local system that is set during installation. (...) The machine ID is usually generated from a random source (...)". It is obviously perfectly justified to refuse to boot the system because an absolutely insignificant random number is missing. As far as systemd is concerned anyway.
Usually, it seems, the /etc/machine-id is set by /usr/bin/systemd-machine-id-setup during installation or system upgrade. It is not documented anywhere that this is a rather important step and that you should better check if this was or was not actually done before rebooting. Obviously (but for no apparent reasons) systemd fails to run this (or to run this successfully) sometimes.
Also to be recommended: Always retain (back up) your old kernel and initramfs and edit your bootloader config appropriately to be able to boot with your old kernel again ... just to have one or two options left to get back into the system in case of running into an unpleasant surprise from the side of systemd or other packages.
The solution is, obviously, to create this file /etc/machine-id ... You probably want to do that from a livesystem (if you want to try it from the emergency shell, you would need to remount / (i.e. root) as rw and hope that systemd will not punish you for that) by just running the program that was designed for creating this file manually: /usr/bin/systemd-machine-id-setup
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.s … devel/7528 states that it might also work with merely creating the file 'touch /etc/machine-id'. Though I didn't try that since I had enough fun with systemd for one week and didn't want to break my system again just to see if that works.Jristz wrote:
ackalker wrote:Sorry for necrobumping this.
Generating the machine-id in a consistent way is very important when working with KVM and containers, where the machine-id can be set for the VM or container. See `man systemd-machine-id-setup`.
Again, _don't_ just put some random UUID in there, especially not in the systemd package install script, this makes provisioning Arch Linux containers a PITA.
If you thing that the way that arch is handlynbg the machine-id is wrong or can be improved, then file a bug.
He already did.
Jristz wrote:Anyway, I thing if reinstalling systemd package or if systemd have a command to reinitialize the machine-id file.
Like so many of your posts, I had to read this a half dozen times before it made any sense. I think you're hinting at the utility that ackalker already pointed out in the post you're replying to. And, if you read the install scriptlet, you wouldn't need to think about whether or not reinstalling would be an option. You would know that it isn't. -
[solved] What makes systemd-logind.service fail?
After last update made yesterday I was unable to reboot. With the help of an installation cd and chrooting I disabled my graphical login manager lxdm which, when started, seems to do nothing and the system is stuck.
Without lxdm service enabled, I can start xfce4 with
startxfce4
from commandline and everything seems to run fine.
But the booting process gives me several messages telling that the service systemd-logind failed. Apart from the virtual console created while booting and the one running X11 there is no other one (no login prompt when pressing strg+alt f3 e.g.)

What I figured out so far is this in addition:
- krusader does not start- there is no response or message in the konsole when firing up this application.
- I can only mount nfs-shares with the option "-o nolock" otherwise I get, e.g.
mount.nfs: rpc.statd is not running but is required for remote locking.
mount.nfs: Either use '-o nolock' to keep locks local, or start statd.
mount.nfs: an incorrect mount option was specified

I have no idea why this is happening, or what to do to try and fix it - any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Following is the information I think is necessary for assistance:
Note that I have /usr on a separate partition, which I suspect is possibly involved in the issue somehow.
Here's my fstab:
[root@anton ~]# cat /etc/fstab
# /dev/sda5

Here's the relevant output from mount (note that my root (sda5) partition is not being mount with the options I specified in fstab):

When I removed or modified the the mount options in the bootloader kernel command line, there was no change to the status of the fs after boot-up. I had changed it at one point from 'ro', to 'rw'; but doing so had no affect on the output of the mount command.
However, I did finally identify the cause: turns out if I specify 'data=writeback', in fstab for the root partition, then systemd-remount-fs.service fails, as per my OP - leaving me with a 'ro'-mounted root filesystem. Simply removing that, or changing it to 'data=ordered', solved the issue: when I rebooted, the root partition was mounted as per my fstab config.
So, my fstab now looks like this:
# /dev/sda5

... and all is now well.
I'll mark this as solved, but I'll also ask: why does specifying 'data=writeback' on my root partition cause the systemd-remount-fs.service to fail? Any experts out there know?

[SOLVED]systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service fails
Hi,
I have installed arch on an old laptop (dell inspiron 6000). I haven't used arch linux for last 2 years. It seems system management style has changed drastically.
Anyways, systemctl status systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service returns this;
● systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service - Create Volatile Files and Directories
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service; static; vendor preset: disabled)

Is this something that I should be concerned? I don't really know what this service supposed to do?
If I should be concerned, how to troubleshoot it? Keep in mind that this is a fresh arch install.

RCU Installation - Service Name of fresh DB installation
Hi,
I am setting up SOA suite 11g. I have Oracle 11.1.0.7 DB (fresh installation) and I my lsnrctl is showing following information;

Port: 1521
Service Name: *<--- I dont know what to provide here as I didn't create any databases on server yet*
Username: sys
Password: ******
Role: sysdba
Am I missing anything....?Hi,
I found the solution and some more useful information which I wanted to add here for future reference.
To run RCU, we need to create a DB first in Oracle and then LSNRCTL will pick up that database and start listening on default port (1521). Use you DB name as Service name which can be verified as follows;

The command completed successfully
Also I found out during my RCU installation we need some more settings before and after creating DB to run RCU successfully;
*1) DB_BLOCK_SIZE Settings*
The default initDB_NAME.ora file create DB with *'db_block_size=4096'*, if that the case you'll see following error while installing RCU;
RCU-6002:The specified database does not meet the minimum requirement to load metadata repository.
RCU-6080:Global prerequisite check failed - Check requirement for specified database
RCU-6107:DB Init Param Prerequisite failure for: DB_BLOCK_SIZE
Current Value is 4 KB. It should be greater than or equal to 8 KB.
User should have sysdba or dba privilages.
It is irreversible :(. You have to drop and create DB again with following parameter in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/initDB_NAME.ora file;
db_block_size=8192
*2) User Previlages*
You can not use SYS/SYSDBA to connect to Oracle DB from RCU setup. To grant SYSDBA permissions to the ORACLE DB user first apply following command from shell;
$ orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapw$ORACLE_SID password=PASSWORD entries=4 force=y
Note: In above command the password is Unix/Windows login password not SYS password.
Now, login into SQLPLUS prompt using sys/sysdba to finally grant SYSDBA opermission to normal Oracle DB User as follows and restart DB to apply changes;
SQL> grant sysdba to aia; <-- Grant SYSDBA permission to user 'aia' in this case
Grant succeeded.
SQL> grant dba to aia;
Grant succeeded.
SQL> startup force;
ORA-32004: obsolete and/or deprecated parameter(s) specified

Instead of installing SQL server instance you selected add node which is to be selected when SQL server installation is to be made on Node which is being added to cluster. Since your OS is not clustered I am sure you selected worng option.
Please right click on setup file and select run as administrator. Now installation window which pops up on that on left hand side select
installation and then on page that appears select 'New server standalone installation or add feature to existing installation'.
You already have SQL server 2008 installed on your machine as per feature discovery report

I'm installing the newest version of Itunes over the last version on my laptop. win 7 pro os. it starts the install then a error msg comes up stating that Bonjour service failed to start. verify that i have sufficient priveleges to start system services. I can't retry, ignore only cancel which un-installs all that it has installed and reverts me to the last version which i had. any idea?
it starts the install then a error msg comes up stating that Bonjour service failed to start. verify that i have sufficient priveleges to start system services.
Sometimes we can get past that one by disabling the Bonjour Service prior to the install.
In your Start menu, right-click Computer and select "Manage".
Expand "Services & Applications".
Open "Services". (Perhaps maximise the screen to better see what's going on.)
Right-click the Bonjour Service and select "Properties".
In the General tab, set the Startup type to "Disabled":
... and click OK.
Restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time? -
Error during iTunes 10 installation - iPod Service failed to start
Hi Everyone,
I am getting this error during installation of iTunes 10(Windows XP).
+*"Service (iPod Service)failed to start.Verify that you have sufficient priveleges to start system services."*+
*Can any of you please help?* I ignored it first and continued with the installation. Then tried to update iphone to iOS 4.1 which crashed. I had to go to Apple store to get my iphone restored. I am having trouble installing itunes and cannot restore data from backup.
I tried uninstalling itunes and deleted all itunes data as suggested by the guy at the Apple store. Still not working. Will appreciate if someone can help resolve this error. Thanks.I just got off the phone with Apple tech support. The problem with that iPod Service is a problem with XP Service Pack 3, but can be fixed this way:
1. Right click on "My Computer", select "Properties"
2. Click on the Advanced tab.
3. in the Startup and Recovery section, click the Settings button.
4. Click the Edit byutton to edit your boot.ini file in notepad.
5. Look for "/noexecute=" in the file and change the word after the equals to "optin" (sorry - I don't remember what the original setting was anymore).
6. Save the file, close notepad, click the OK button on Startup and Recovery window, then reboot.
The warning message about the iPod Service should stop. Also, this helps with iPhones that are not recognized by Windows or iTunes after an install fails.
