[Solved] Remove uninstalled systemd units
Hello people.
I got a weird problem with lingering systemd units.
auditd.service error inactive dead auditd.service
plymouth-quit-wait.service error inactive dead plymouth-quit-wait.service
plymouth-quit.service error inactive dead plymouth-quit.service
plymouth-start.service error inactive dead plymouth-start.service
syslog.service error inactive dead syslog.service
All of these services do not exist in the filesystem, but get "started" one way or another. I'd like to resolve this problem in some way.
Greetings, peacememories.

Sadly, no. Does systemd cache its required units somewhere?
EDIT:
I checked /usr/lib/systemd to make sure and et voila, I found something. Let me just check which package those files belong to.
EDIT2:
Okay, apparently they are all owned by systemd itself? i'm confused.

[SOLVED] Network Manager systemd unit fails after update
EDIT: Reinstalling libnm-glib resolved this issue
After updating to the latest version of NetworkManager (networkmanager-0.9.8.10-3), the systemd unit fails to start. It works fine after downgrading back to the previous version though (networkmanager-0.9.8.10-1). I'm not sure if this is a bug or an error on my end; since the previous package works I've just dowgraded for the time being. For the update that doesn't work, here is the output of "systemctl status" and the systemd journal:

[SOLVED] Remove / Uninstall 'supersonic' AUR package
Hi guys, I am setting up a home server which will have OwnCloud and some music streaming with Subsonic.
I read that Supersonic was a fork of Subsonic and was available on AUR so I installed that - though I cannot seem to get it to work, it starts OK but I cannot browse to MYHOMEURL:4040.
Anyways, I am now gonna install the actual subsonic from AUR but I cannot seem to uninstall supersonic using pacman.
Pacman -Rsnc supersonic
...returns 'error: target not found: supersonic'
This is my first time using Arch and of course AUR so I cannot see how to remove this package.

[solved] emacs daemon systemd unit doesn't start
I found instructions on EmacsWiki for a systemd service file for running the emacs daemon at startup. It works just fine on my desktop, but for some reason it doesn't work on my laptop. Here's the service file (/etc/systemd/system/[email protected]):
[Unit]

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
When I run "systemctl start emacs@<username>", it fails:
$ sudo systemctl status emacs@<username>.service

Any ideas why the exact same service file might start on one computer and fail on another? If I just run "emacs --daemon" manually (or in ~/.xinitrc) it starts just fine.
Thanks.

[SOLVED]MPD, PulseAudio & Systemd/User
Since the advent of skype 4.3 I've had to switch to using pulseaudio. Things seems to be working fine except for the interaction between pulseaudio and mpd. My goal is to attain the same functionality as I had before when I was just using alsa. The main problem seems to be that the mpd daemon starts before pulseaudio. This means that when I reboot, for example, my music doesn't automatically keep playing. However if I toggle mpc (or open ncmpcpp and unpause) then it works fine.
What I have done
1) I installed mpd using the script found on the wiki
1a) copied ~/.config/mpd/mpd.conf to /etc/mpd.conf and uncomment #user line so it runs as my user
1b) enabled the mpd service with systemctl so it starts on boot, as directed to from 1)
2) Applied the workaround detailed here to make pulseaudio play nice with mpd
From what I can understand this results in the mpd daemon using the /etc/mpd.conf file which mirrors my local one (but I think the process is still started as root?)
If I don't do 2) then I get a problem where if I try to open pavucontrol I get an error saying I'm unable to connect and the system feels very unresponsive. Two second delays navigating around in thunar for example.
fuser /dev/snd/* outputs
» sudo fuser /dev/snd/*
/dev/snd/controlC0: 440
/dev/snd/controlC1: 440
/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p: 440m
» ps aux | grep 440
quiv 440 1.2 0.1 495964 13248 ? Sl 15:16 0:05 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog
quiv 2259 0.0 0.0 11668 2296 pts/0 S+ 15:23 0:00 grep --color=auto 440
For now I have added in
if grep -q "state: pause" /home/quiv/.config/mpd/state; then
mpc toggle
fi
to my ~/.xinitrc as a work around to get pulse and mpd to work together properly. However it doesn't seem to work all the time. If I leave my music playing then when I reboot the system with reboot it seems that somtimes the state is being saved as paused, and other times as play. I suppose I could just mpc toggle without checking, but I don't want a situation where if I happen to not be playing music that every time I reboot my music starts playing.
Other things I have tried are;
A) not using pulseaudio with mpd.
B) not using systemd to manage mpd. Instead I manually started it in .xinitrc and pointed it to my ~/.config/mpd/mpd.conf file. I believe this means it runs as my own user instead of as root. When I did this I commented the username line and also undid 2) from above in ~/.config/mpd/mpd.conf
The problem with A) is that if I use alsa with mpd, mpd hogs my soundcard. My card becomes unselectable in pavucontrol and I cannot use it with pulseaudio., meanng no skype. The benefit of doing this (this is how I used to do it before I needed pulseaudio) is I have no problems with mpd's state being saved incorrectly.
The problem with B) is the mpdstate is saved incorrectly when for example I issue reboot. I can reproduce this by changing my currently played song then rebooting. When I boot back up mpd resumes playback from the previous session instead of recognizing the last thing I was playing. I had a search around on the forums and I found this issue which seems to describe what is happening. There doesn't seem to be a solution there instead a suggestion to user systemd (which I would like to do!) instead to manage mpd. Rasi's post details a unit file but I'm unsure what to do with this.
Looking at the wiki it seems like maybe I am supposed to provide this file so that it overwrites the default mpd.service unit. So I followed the steps listed there. First I created the directory /etc/systemd/system/mpd.d/ then made the user.conf file inside. I tried just putting the additional arguments in
[Service]
User=YOUR_USER
PAMName=system-local-login
I also remember trying to overwrite the entire [Service] section of the original by using
[Service]
User=YOUR_USER
PAMName=system-local-login
ExecStart=
ExecStart=/usr/bin/mpd --no-daemon
because I think just adding the addtional parameters might not have worked. But I'm not sure on this point, maybe both ways worked. This seemed to work but I had the same problem as above. The state was still being saved incorrectly sometimes when I rebooted. I would get a previous session instead of the most recent change. So I tried the other method for overwriting systemd unit files and made the file /etc/systemd/system/mpd.service in which I pasted Rasi's entire unit file. This also seemed to work, but still the incorrect state problem happened.
At this point I didn't know what to try. It seemed like the only option left was to set up mpd using a local configuration and setting up a systemd/User session and managing it that way. The wiki indiciated that if I did it this way I would not have to use the method 2) above. However I was/still am hesistant about doing this. I'm new to arch and the systemd/User wiki page seems very intimidating. I worry that I will create problems that I won't understand how to solve using this method just for the chance that mpd will function correclty with pulse. However I seemed to have exhausted all my possible options so I thought whatever I'll try it anyway! I'm certain I probably haven't done it right however.
So once again I turned to the wiki to help me with setting this up. However I can't make sense of the article. I don't know if I should follow ONLY the Setup since systemd 206 or if I should follow both setup sections? I decided to follow only the first section. I use no DE so I commented out the
[[ -z $DISPLAY && $XDG_VTNR -eq 1 ]] && exec startx
line in my ~/.zprofile. When I set up my system I followed the Automatic login to virtual console. I left this file alone, but upon second thoughts maybe I should have disabled this too? I don't understand if using xlogin-git to austoart Xorg, as described in the systemd/User page, requires me to get rid of this too. I think xlogin-git just starts Xorg so automatic login via getty should be fine?
Immediately when I boot in using systemd to manage my session I notice that there are problems. I don't think my environment variables are being sourced from .zshenv because my panel fails to load. If I kill the panel and load it again it works. This makes me think there is something wrong with the order of units started with systemd.
» sudo journalctl --this-boot --no-pager | grep -i panel ~
Jul 05 16:25:39 lorelai bash[494]: /home/quiv/.config/bspwm/panel/panel: line 16: : No such file or directory
Jul 05 16:25:39 lorelai bash[494]: /home/quiv/.config/bspwm/panel/panel: line 17: : No such file or directory
Jul 05 16:25:39 lorelai bash[494]: /home/quiv/.config/bspwm/panel/panel: line 18: : No such file or directory
In each instance panel is trying to do things based on $PANEL_FIFO which is exported from ~/.zshenv but it doesn't appear to be set at the time systemd starts things up. Apart from these problems, which are probably undoubtedly due to the fact I failed to set up systemd/User properly, I still have problems with mpd. The state seems to be remembered correctly now, however when I reboot I still have to toggle mpc for it to start playback. It seems to be the same problem as when I use setup detailed intially. I suspect perhaps once again there is something wrong with the order here. MPD starts before pulse so it doesn't find anything to play through, then once I issue the mpc toggle command pulse is started and all is happy.
A final note is that I was getting this error yesterday when using systemd/User
● mpd.service - Music Player Daemon

but it doesn't seem to happen anymore.
Also I have no idea if I'm even supposed to use it like this but
» sudo systemctl --user enable mpd ~
Failed to get D-Bus connection: Connection refused
I tried this because I was wondering if mpd was even using the correct service when using systemd/User. I thought perhaps it just was using the one in /etc/systemd/system/ instead of /usr/lib/systemd/user/. I'm still not sure about this.
In the end I've exhausted whatever I can think of. I'm sure I've done a lot of things wrong but I tried my best. Hopefully somebody knows what I've done wrong and can help me.

Well shit. I guess I didn't need to do all that other stuff. I only wish I'd known about this before wasting most of my day. Thank you very much, everything appears to be working flawlessly now. -
Ninit Boot Preparation Automation and Systemd Unit File Converter
I figured I should try to learn more about init systems and started looking at ninit (AUR entry). Now, I know there's other init systems like ignite, runit, OpenRC, etc., but I haven't gotten around to trying those yet. Furthermore, I also looked at ninit's little brother minit and really liked it, but it didn't have all of the features I was looking for before starting to experiment.
So during my experiments in my virtual machine (I discovered that my classes were not as fast paced as I thought they would be, except for the labs), I decided that I should write up a basic boot-up, some sample daemons, and a script to convert systemd units to other services for other files. Both still largely in the works, but the boot prep stuff DOES work. A few other things were taken into consideration, such as not having to copy one's /etc/modules-load.d/'s contents into some other file because the stuff at the end of the udev prep stage will read those in and killing off all the daemons configured in daemons/depends before bringing down the system (note: I haven't checked to see if it's intelligent to try backtracking the dependencies of those stopped daemons to make sure any daemons brought in with deps are down).
I don't think I've got the clock-related preparation set up right just yet or some of the other boot stages that I haven't considered (eg: raids, volume groups, etc), but other than that, it should be usable. If anyone wants to do further testing with the unit converter script or the ninit stuff, do let me know. The unit converter script only converts Service files for now, and some of the additional details about services files haven't been considered yet. I do plan on expanding the unit file converter to other init systems once I get the nitpicks with ninit sorted out so people who want to move away from systemd have plenty of choices with less typing.

archwiki wrote:The user will be logged out when X is killed. In order to avoid this, remove the exec part from the script.
EDIT: so, i set up my new bash_profile according to this:
. $HOME/.bashrc
if [[ -z "$DISPLAY" ]] && [[ $(tty) = /dev/tty1 ]]; then
startx
#logout
fi
then change
Restart=no
in
Restart=always
Perfect!
I'd like only to know how can i achieve this: i want that if it is my first login, i'm autologged in, but if that's not my first login, i'd like to have autologin stopped.
Is there a way? The only i came up with is something like: wrote 1 to a file during first login, and then check that file during later logins. If there's a 1, then do not autologin, else autologin...but it is so stupid idea!

You could contact the iBook Store support in your country, however I doubt you paid in advance so there is no loss. The missing book may have been removed from sale by its author.

I am having exactly the same problem with my eMac. I tried to use the Find function as was suggested, but was not able to come across anything labeled ".ComcastBoot" The Comcast folks had no explanation other that telling me that this is some file or something that the computer created during installation.
It is frustrating to have to do a Force Quit to shut down. I did notice that doing a force quit does not affect the internet service and the .ComcastBoot icon does not return to the desktop unless the computer is restarted.
Might there be any other suggestions?

[solved]Trying to insert a blocking systemd unit into the boot process
What i'm trying to do is to start (and *wait* for it to complete) a unit before starting another.
In particular, i need to create and mount a partition on the fly before any filesystem gets mounted.
My unit file is:
# cat /etc/systemd/system/early-boot-koko.service
[Unit]
Description=Configurazione ottimale per il boot da rete
[Service]
Before=systemd-remount-fs.service
#Nice=19
#IOSchedulingClass=3
#IOSchedulingPriority=7
Type=oneshot # is forking instead of oneshot needed here?
ExecStart=/root/scripts/early-boot.sh
TimeoutSec=0
#StandardInput=tty
RemainAfterExit=yes
I created even created an override to systemd-remount-fs.service and added early-boot-koko.service to the "After" array:
]# cat /etc/systemd/system/systemd-remount-fs.service
# This file is part of systemd.
# systemd is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it

Wants=local-fs-pre.target
ConditionPathExists=/etc/fstab
[Service]
Type=oneshot
RemainAfterExit=yes
ExecStart=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-remount-fs
But when i boot, i notice that early-boot-koko.service is still running while systemd-remount-fs has exited :
# systemctl |grep 'early\|remount'
early-boot-koko.service loaded active running Configurazione ottimale per il boot da rete
systemd-remount-fs.service loaded active exited Remount Root and Kernel File Systems
...but i need early-boot-koko.service to complete before systemd-remount-fs is started.
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks.

[Solved] Overriding systemd Unit Files Isn't Working
I'm trying to set up some custom dependencies for various services, some of which are supported packages, some are custom packages I've developed. I am running into problems following the procedure described here - specifically, service files in /etc/systemd/system are ignored, and the only way to override them is to edit the files in /usr/lib/systemd/system. I have verified this issue on both a VPS instance and my desktop. Both systems were originally built well before systemd and have been converted to pure systemd systems. Does anyone else see these issues, or know of any reason this would be happening and/or how to resolve it?
Steps to reproduce. This example uses httpd and mysql, but I've tested it with several other services, always with the same results:
Enable the service unit and create a new override:
systemctl enable httpd.service
rm /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/httpd.service
cp /usr/lib/systemd/system/httpd.service /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/httpd.service
Edit /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/httpd.service, adding a line 'Wants=mysqld.service' to the [Unit] section.
Make systemd changes effective, and verify them. The first command results in an error that says "Failed to issue method call: Invalid argument". The final command will show an empty list ("Wants="), when it should list mysqld. Running systemd-delta also shows no override.
systemctl reenable httpd
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl show -p "Wants" httpd.service
Change the replacement unit file to .include the packaged unit file:
cat > /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/httpd.service << __EOF
.include /usr/lib/systemd/system/httpd.service
[Unit]
Wants=mysqld.service
__EOF
Repeat step #3, with the same results
Reenable the package's unit:
rm /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/httpd.service
systemctl enable httpd.service
Edit the original unit file in /usr/lib/systemd/system/httpd.service, adding the 'Wants=myslqd.service' to the Unit section
Repeat step 3
Result is the correct and expected one this time ("Wants=myslqd.service")

About the autologin@.service systemd unit file
Hi!
I switched some days ago, from slim to [email protected] (in systemd), and i'm really happy with my choice.
But I'm having a problem: autologin works perfectly, but if i exit the session from xfce4 menu (if i kill xserver), tty1 will stay black, and i can't login there again, but i have to switch to another tty and login there.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
