Hi, Working with a test DO process, to install a package/module install npm . . . Failed to restart ssh.service: Transaction contains conflicting jobs 'stop' and 'restart' for ssh.service. Probably contradicting requirement dependencies configured. See system logs and 'systemctl status ssh.service' for details. Could not execute systemctl: at /usr/bin/deb-systemd-invoke line 142. Failed to restart ssh.socket: Transaction contains conflicting jobs 'restart' and 'stop' for ssh.service. Probably contradicting requirement dependencies configured. See system logs and 'systemctl status ssh.socket' for details. . . Trying to figure out what/where I can research to try to resolve this. Checking different 'net sites haven't produced a solution. The test system already had/has a working ssh/sshd process. Obviously, the sshd can't be stopped! I did try to "update" with no improvement systemctl status ssh.service ● ssh.service - OpenBSD Secure Shell server Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/ssh.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Drop-In: /etc/systemd/system/ssh.service.d └─00-socket.conf Active: active (running) since Thu 2023-12-28 00:27:05 UTC; 10h ago Docs: man:sshd(8) man:sshd_config(5) Main PID: 8096 (sshd) Tasks: 1 (limit: 2323) Memory: 10.3M CPU: 51.961s CGroup: /system.slice/ssh.service └─8096 "sshd: /usr/sbin/sshd -D [listener] 0 of 10-100 startups" Dec 28 11:13:34 ubuntu-s-1vcpu-2gb-nyc1-dd sshd[152596]: Connection reset by 198.235.24.214 port 64902 [preauth] Dec 28 11:15:40 ubuntu-s-1vcpu-2gb-nyc1-dd sshd[152599]: Invalid user wireguard from 104.248.13.51 port 58520 Dec 28 11:15:40 ubuntu-s-1vcpu-2gb-nyc1-dd sshd[152599]: pam_unix(sshd:auth): check pass; user unknown Dec 28 11:15:40 ubuntu-s-1vcpu-2gb-nyc1-dd sshd[152599]: pam_unix(sshd:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser= rhost=104.248.13.51 any thoughts/comments? thanks -- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
