Hi Bjoern, > > I'm trying to create a systemd timer for a user to run duply daily. > > For one user the enabled worked fine, but another one: > > > > systemctl --user enable backup.timer > > Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory Are you truly logged in as this second user for whom it does not work, or just su(1)'d, etc? My guess is there's a user.service running for the user ID where it works, and not for the other one. Examine the output of «systemctl status 'user@*.service'» for dbus-daemon and differences between the two users. -- Cheers, Ralph. https://plus.google.com/+RalphCorderoy
