Hi, Adam Williamson at RedHat suggested I post here, so please don't be too hard on me. I have a couple of systemd units which are reported as in error: ------------------------------------------ [palooka@f15 ~]$ systemctl list-units --all --no-pager|grep error ip6tables.service error inactive dead ip6tables.service livesys-late.service error inactive dead livesys-late.service [palooka@f15 ~]$ sudo systemctl disable ip6tables.service Couldn't find ip6tables.service. [palooka@f15 ~]$ sudo systemctl disable livesys-late.service Couldn't find livesys-late.service. [palooka@f15 ~]$ ------------------------------------------ ip6tables is not installed on my system, and I know that livesys-late is a remnant of having installed from a Live CD. As can be seen above, when I try to "disable" them, systemctl tells me that it can't find these services. So what I want to know is why are they being reported as in error, and how can I delete them, or otherwise remove them from the scope of systemctl? Adam suggested I look for broken symlinks in /etc/systemd/system, but I see nothing untoward there: ------------------------------------------- [palooka@f15 system]$ pwd /etc/systemd/system [palooka@f15 system]$ ls -lR .: total 24 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 42 Apr 8 22:33 dbus-org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.service -> /lib/systemd/system/NetworkManager.service lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 May 18 20:52 default.target -> /lib/systemd/system/graphical.target drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Apr 8 22:33 default.target.wants drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Apr 8 22:33 getty.target.wants drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 May 18 20:18 graphical.target.wants drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 May 21 22:43 multi-user.target.wants drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Apr 8 22:33 network.target.wants drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Apr 8 22:33 sysinit.target.wants ./default.target.wants: total 0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 53 Apr 8 22:33 systemd-readahead-collect.service -> /lib/systemd/system/systemd-readahead-collect.service lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 52 Apr 8 22:33 systemd-readahead-replay.service -> /lib/systemd/system/systemd-readahead-replay.service ./getty.target.wants: total 0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 34 Apr 8 22:33 getty@xxxxxxxxxxxx -> /lib/systemd/system/getty@.service lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 34 Apr 8 22:33 getty@xxxxxxxxxxxx -> /lib/systemd/system/getty@.service lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 34 Apr 8 22:33 getty@xxxxxxxxxxxx -> /lib/systemd/system/getty@.service lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 34 Apr 8 22:33 getty@xxxxxxxxxxxx -> /lib/systemd/system/getty@.service lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 34 Apr 8 22:33 getty@xxxxxxxxxxxx -> /lib/systemd/system/getty@.service lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 34 Apr 8 22:33 getty@xxxxxxxxxxxx -> /lib/systemd/system/getty@.service ./graphical.target.wants: total 0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 49 Apr 8 22:33 system-setup-keyboard.service -> /lib/systemd/system/system-setup-keyboard.service ./multi-user.target.wants: total 0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 33 Apr 8 22:33 crond.service -> /lib/systemd/system/crond.service lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 May 18 21:27 irqbalance.service -> /lib/systemd/system/irqbalance.service lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 42 Apr 8 22:33 NetworkManager.service -> /lib/systemd/system/NetworkManager.service lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 35 Apr 8 22:33 ntpdate.service -> /lib/systemd/system/ntpdate.service lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 May 21 22:43 ntpd.service -> /lib/systemd/system/ntpd.service lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 36 Apr 8 22:33 remote-fs.target -> /lib/systemd/system/remote-fs.target lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 35 Apr 8 22:33 rsyslog.service -> /lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service ./network.target.wants: total 0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 42 Apr 8 22:33 NetworkManager.service -> /lib/systemd/system/NetworkManager.service ./sysinit.target.wants: total 0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 40 Apr 8 22:33 hwclock-load.service -> /lib/systemd/system/hwclock-load.service [palooka@f15 system]$ -------------------------------------- Is there a problem? -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
