[SOLVED] systemd user unit for lsyncd

After following the the systemd/User - Basic setup wiki article I have successfully setup user services for systemd.  I've also setup a systemd user "unit" to run lsyncd.  The user unit appears to start successfully based on the unit status shown below.  Only problem is lsyncd isn't running and I'm not seeing any relevant errors or info with journalctl.  If I run the script defined in ExecStart on the command line lsyncd starts as expected.  Any ideas or pointers?
OUTPUT from "systemctl --user lsyncd.service":

Try changing the service type to forking instead of simple. Or look for an lsycd option that keeps it running in the foreground.

Thanks for the pointer, it worked!  After reading in detail the different types available "forking" does seem the most appropriate type for a daemon written as lsyncd.  I believe using an lsyncd option named "detach" would have worked with the "simple" type but forking seemd more appropriate in my case.
Also as an update to my original post I have completely removed the use of the shell script and am now calling lsyncd directly in my defined systemd unit.  Also using the %h variable for the home directory now.

  • Trouble with some custom SystemD/User unit files

    Good evening all,
    I'm trying to move programs out of my .xinitrc file and my window manager's startup hooks into systemd user unit files for ease of management, and hopefully more resilient.  I have followed the setup on the wiki page for SystemD/User session (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sy … asic_setup) and already have some services already running:

    Some of them are using unit files provided by the package, others I wrote the unit file for.  The services that are failing that are causing the state to be degraded are:
    ╭─vendion@tyre ~

    LOAD = Reflects whether the unit definition was properly loaded.
    ACTIVE = The high-level unit activation state, i.e. generalization of SUB.
    SUB = The low-level unit activation state, values depend on unit type.
    4 loaded units listed. Pass --all to see loaded but inactive units, too.
    To show all installed unit files use 'systemctl list-unit-files'.
    I had to write the unit files for each of these.

    I know that my unit files for these services work because if I manually start them with "systemctl --user start <service>" then they work just fine, but when systemD is trying to start them when I login they fail.  I have dbus setup like the wiki says to, and "DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS" is defined.  I also have the DISPLAY environment variable set in /etc/systemd/system/[email protected]/display.conf like the wiki suggests as well.  I know that SystemD user sessions still may not be ready for prime time but I could use a better way to manage these startup programs than the .xinitrc file.
    Thanks in advance for any help

    i suppose there is a code whitch resets the default bounds when
    the component is beeing added to the JTable.Technically, the Component returned by the getCellRendererComponent() is not added to the JTable, it's just used as a rubber stamp.Mmm, I was wrong: at least with the basic L&F, the Component is (temporarily) added to a CellRendererPane, which is a children of the JTable.
    Moreover, I witnessed that both setBounds() and doLayout() are called before the component is actually painted...
    I've never used a compound component as a renderer, but I assume the issue is common (did not have time to search nor try it myself). You may investigate whether the JPanel is appropriately laid out, by inserting some breakpoints/logs at appropriate places (setBounds, doLayout,...)Did this on an extra-short example, and it did render correctly...
    somehow the textfield's bounds where not set anymore.Note that the Javadoc for Cellrendererpane states that +"After the component is painted it's bounds are reset to -w, -h, 0, 0 so that, if it's the last renderer component painted, it will not start consuming input"+.
    That does not explain why the w and h are 0, but at least it's clear that depending on where you put your logging statement makes a big difference about the accuracy of the bounds logged

  • [Solved] systemd-user-session: Best way to pass global ENV vars?

    Hey guys,
    So when using the [email protected] from the user-session-units what's the best / cleanest way to set global environment variables for that systemd --user instance (and thus, all programs spawned from it)?
    What I'm talking about is /etc/profile and $HOME/.profile.
    For example, I usally configure my XDG_CONFIG_HOME and XDG_CACHE_HOME in my ~/.profile. But since systemd --user is being started by systemd --session none of these environment variables are loaded.
    The solution I've come up is to change the ExecStart in the [email protected] file to something like this:
    ExecStart=/usr/bin/sh -c "source /etc/profile; source $HOME/.config/bash/environment; exec /usr/lib/systemd/systemd --user"
    I know I could use the `EnvironmentFile` option to load the environment variables from a file, but it's not as flexable as a bash script.
    Am I thinking about this problem wrong? Is there a more "systemd --user"-y way of solving the problem?
    Last edited by EvanPurkhiser (2013-08-12 03:02:48)

    I've more or less solved this using my own user-session units. I still don't know if my method would really be considered the proper way or not though.

  • [SOLVED] systemd --user: "Failed to open private bus connection:"

    EDIT: The solution was to set DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS, as suggested by gtmanfred in irc.  By putting the following before executing systemd --user, the error vanished:
    export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=/run/user/$(id -u)/dbus/user_bus_socket
    ===================
    Original problem:
    Everything on my box appears to be working ok, but I'm getting this error consistently in tty1 and at the top of journalctl (as user) whenever I start systemd --user:
    systemd[3975]: Failed to open private bus connection: Unable to autolaunch a dbus-daemon without a $DISPLAY for X11
    I roughly have my system setup per this wiki section https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sy … ur_Session.  I start systemd --user via a small script in my .bash_profile. Here are my relevant dbus{.service,socket} files, from the package user-session-units mentioned in the wiki:  (Edit: xorg is started through xorg-launch-helper, also from that wiki page)  Edit2: I'm not using autologin.  I noticed that under the autologin section of that page, DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS is set to some path.  In my setup that isn't set anywhere, so I may try to copy that later but I don't have time to play with it right now.  Will post back later.

  • [Solved] Systemd user service and timer dbus error

    I have installed arch recently and added a few of my own services, for example the acpi_call commands and such. Now I want to create a systemd service that runs every 5 minutes and execute a script.
    I searched a lot and I found that I must use timers. I got the thing with the timers working, but because my script has to do with a specific user, I want it to run only every 5 minutes when i am logged in as that user.
    I tried to put the files in /etc/systemd/users, .config/local/users and all the possibilities but everytime i want to enable it, it says dbus connection refused.
    Can somebody please provide me a way to execute a systemd service every 5 minutes while I am logged in as a specific user?
    I did follow the wiki and created a dbus service and all. Everything works on that side but i can't enable my user service.
    thanks!

  • [SOLVED] systemd/User, starting a Dependent service

    I am missing something simple here.  I have two services.  Once is dependent on the other.
    I got the first service to start with:
    $ cat ~/.config/systemd/user/[email protected]
    [Unit]
    Description=Syncthing - Open Source Continuous File Synchronization for %I
    Documentation=https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/wiki
    After=network.target
    [Service]
    #User=%i
    Environment=STNORESTART=yes
    ExecStart=/usr/bin/syncthing -no-browser -logflags=0
    Restart=on-failure
    SuccessExitStatus=2 3 4
    RestartForceExitStatus=3 4
    [Install]
    #WantedBy=multi-user.target
    WantedBy=default.target
    This autostarts upon logging in with i3 and gnome.  No problem (now).
    The problem I have is with the notifier/watcher:
    $ cat ~/.config/systemd/user/[email protected]
    [Unit]
    Description=Syncthing Inotify File Watcher for %I
    Documentation=https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing-inotify/blob/master/README.md

    Restart=on-failure
    ProtectSystem=full
    ProtectHome=read-only
    [Install]
    #WantedBy=multi-user.target
    WantedBy=default.target
    Installed it into my namespace, like I did with the parent service:
    $ systemctl --user enable [email protected]
    On system startup/login, the service is "Dead (inactive)."
    But, I can start it manually:
    $ systemctl --user start [email protected]
    And the status of the service shows it logging and working, picking up changes, etc.
    I must be missing a configuration parameter in the service file.

    You know how you stay up late and everything you do right seems to be wrong?
    When I ran:
    systemctl status [email protected]
    ...it showed inactive (dead) and is the reason I made this thread. 
    Changed it to this:
    systemctl --user status [email protected]
    Allowed me to see it started.  *head smack*
    And btw, I tried "syncthing@%i.service" and it worked too!  I reverted back to "[email protected]" to verify %i fixed it, but it started as well as before.  So "%i" seems agnostic and would work as well.

    Strangely devmon.service does not appear in the log of the boot process at all.  However, it says something about the user session at some point, if that helps:
    May 16 22:16:43 marchine systemd[1]: Starting user-1000.slice.

    But after starting devmon manually, the log says something about multiple instances:

    May 16 22:27:22 marchine devmon[1416]: 1416 ? Ss 0:00 /bin/bash /usr/bin/devmon
    The service file looks like this (I didn't change anything):
    [Unit]
    Description=devmon Service
    [Service]
    Type=simple
    User=%i
    # Set DISPLAY for popup dialogs

    ExecStart=/usr/bin/devmon $ARGS
    [Install]
    WantedBy=multi-user.target
    As I said before, I found a workaround which does it for me at the moment.  I'm happy about any new informations which may help me to deal with similar problems in the future, but it's no emergency.
    Thanks, y

  • [SOLVED] systemd .service file for ruby rainbows server

    I am trying to create a systemd .service file for a ruby rainbows server.
    http://rainbows.rubyforge.org/
    does anybody have experience with a forking deamon under systemd?
    Mine immediatley terminates after starting.

    This is a .service file that will work:

  • [SOLVED] systemd-arch-units conflicts with mdadm and xinetd packages

    Trying to upgrade my testing box today to latest/greatest and running into a file conflict between systemd-arch-linux providing systemd profiles for xinetd and mdadm which also think they control the same files:
    error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
    /usr/lib/systemd/system/mdadm.service exists in both 'mdadm' and 'systemd-arch-units'
    /usr/lib/systemd/system/xinetd.service exists in both 'systemd-arch-units' and 'xinetd'
    Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
    Should I just do a force? I am not relying on systemd yet. Or should I just remove systemd?

  • [SOLVED] systemd/user interface not working

    I cannot use user service files, because systemctl gives me this error:
    $ systemctl --user status
    Failed to get D-Bus connection: No such file or directory
    It's been a while since I used a user service file, so I don't know when it started exactly.
    How can I further diagnose this? I've done everything in the wiki related pages, so I'm clueless right now...
    Thanks in advance

You can grep journalctl using the '--no-pager' option if you desire, otherwise just use less/more. I'd look at the boot logs and see if it spit any errors out about creating the session, etc.
    Thanks for your reply!

  • [Solved] systemd/user : how to exit window manager & stop X?

    Solution: Jump to https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 6#p1262166
    I have set up my system to user systemd units to start my environment (roughly following the wiki).
    My problem is that I cannot exit my window manager (using “io (exitWith ExitSuccess)” in Xmonad): the service file starting the WM (xmonad) stops/exits with success, but the xorg.service keeps
    running. I need to switch to TTY2, systemctl --user stop xorg.service by hand, then switch to TTY1, execute Ctrl-C, and then I finally get my login
    prompt back.
    This is a bit annoying, and I don't know how to fix it.
    Here are the relevant (I think) unit files:
    # xmonad.target
    [Unit]
    Description=XMonad
    Wants=xorg.target
    Wants=xinit.target
    Requires=dbus.socket
    AllowIsolate=true
    [Install]
    Alias=default.target
    # xmonad.service
    [Unit]
    Description=Starts Xmonad
    Before=xinitrc.target
    After=xorg.target
    Requires=xorg.target
    [Service]
    ExecStart=/usr/bin/xmonad
    Environment=DISPLAY=:0
    Restart=no
    [Install]
    WantedBy=xmonad.target
    RequiredBy=xorg.service
    As you can see, I have added the RequiredBy=xorg.service line at the bottom, hoping that if xmonad.service exits, so should xorg.service - but to
    no avail.
    What do I have to do in order to completely stop X and get my login prompt on TTY1 back?
    EDIT: I am of course using the user-session-units.

  • [Solved] No user manual for Digikam

    Hello,
    I want to use digikam to manage my photos but I can't find the manual. I looked in the digikam's help menu but it seems I don't have digikam-doc package installed. There is no such package in the repositiories. When I downloaded the package from sourceforge it didn't contain help files in english, which is wierd. Additionally the link to the handbook (in pdf) on the project's homepage is invalid. Until yesterday I used the online html version but it went dead also. Does anyone have the html or pdf version of digikam handbook downloaded? I would be very happy if someone shared it with me.
    Regards,

    I see that digikam package own files like

    /usr/share/doc/kde/html/en/digikam/index.docbook
    /usr/share/doc/kde/html/en/showfoto/index.docbook
    and a couple /usr/share/doc/kde/html/en/kipi-plugins/*.docbook
    Maybe they have some sort of info.
    About that 404, you should open a bug report if there isn't one already, like http://digikam.1695700.n4.nabble.com/PD … 34313.html back in March.
    Edit: The wiki http://userbase.kde.org/Digikam has some info and tutorials too.

  • [Solved] Starting systemd --user as a systemd --system process?

    Hey guys,
    I would like to run systemd --user as a system service using this .service file I wrote:

    EDIT: I just realized that the systemd-user-session-units package will only include specific units at build-time weather I have have the programs or not. You're right, I should just use this package!
    Well, to be honest, maybe I'm trying to hack around a problem that doesn't even really exist, but I don't think the systemd-user-sessions-units package meets my needs.
    The way I would like to have my user sessions setup is something like this:
    I would like to have an instance of systemd --user always running under my user so I can keep things like transmission-daemon always running, even when I don't have a user session open. When I do start my user session (via logging into getty) I want to bring my systemd instance up to a certain target. For example, logging in via tty1 should bring up graphical.target, which will start X11 and all that, while logging into any other tty will start console.target (for stuff like ssh-agent etc).
    Thinking more about this I suppose there's really no reason I couldn't use the [email protected] from systemd-user-session-units, but since I won't use most of the other user units included, I would rather just not use it.
    Here's what my .profile looks like:
    if systemctl -q is-active systemd-user@evan
    then
    # Default systemd to the console target
    target="console"
    # If we're logging in from VT1 start the graphical target
    if [[ $XDG_VTNR == 1 ]] && ! systemctl --user -q is-active graphical.target &> /dev/null
    then
    export DISPLAY=:0
    target="graphical"
    fi
    # Set all environment variables in the systemd --user instance (still working on this)
    env | systemctl --user set-environment -
    # Bring up systemd --user to the specified target
    systemctl --user start ${target}.target
    fi
    source "$HOME/.bashrc"

  • [solved] systemd: Start process as specific user

    Hi,
    I plan to use bittorrent-sync, and want to run it for each user separately. So I would like to modify the service to run the process as the user instead of root. Like bittorrent-sync@user1… and so on.
    Is this possible?
    Thanks
    Last edited by silentsnake (2013-04-27 15:13:25)

    Thanks to you too, WonderWoofy.

    Restart=on-abort
    User=%i
    Group=users
    [Install]
    WantedBy=multi-user.target
    This allows me to run one instance per user with its own configuration. Since it's a server with no users actively working on, I think this is the way to go. But will investigate the systemd user session for my desktop clients.

  • [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

    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.
