I've got systemd-44-23.fc17.x86_64Yeah, some of my other machines seems to have survived. But all I know, is that on a stripped down, headless box, this update broke Apache, until I took out PrivateTmp out of httpd.service. Only systemd was updated, apache wasn't. That's all I can figure out for now. The error message text wasn't very helpful, and googling it around found a bunch of references to PrivateTmp, so I took it out, and systemctl start httpd.service worked. Put it back, systemd refuses to start it, take it out, it works.Did you check to see if you have any selinux log entries pertaining to this? "Operation not permitted" smells selinux-ishy to me.This stripped down box does not use selinux. Jan 14 06:54:40 shorty kernel: [ 3.219771] SELinux: Disabled at runtime. Jan 14 06:54:40 shorty kernel: [ 3.249018] type=1404 audit(1358164472.135:2): selinux=0 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 /etc/selinux/config has SELINUX=disabled The only thing that comes to mind that I have non-standard is: [root@shorty ~]# ls -al /var/www lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 11 Apr 19 2011 /var/www -> ../home/www But if this caused some unfathomable problem with systemd's PrivateTmp, I'd expect apache to barf, instead of systemd whining.That isn't a broken link, is it, or some permissions issue where systemd (or Apache) doesn't have access to /home/www? I can see /var/www being a symlink to /home/<someuser>/www or even /home/www, but does the apache user have write access to it?
As I wrote before: after disabling PrivateTmp for httpd.service, Apache comes up just fine.
It would quite an impressive accomplishment if the presence of PrivateTmp directive in httpd.service would somehow break and unbreak, repeatedly, a symlink somewhere else in the filesystem.
Furthermore, if, somehow were that to be the case, everything that I've ever learned about Unix or Linux tells me that it would be apache crapping all over my syslog, instead of systemd.
