Simple! 😘
systemctl restart wings
Debian/Ubuntu: apt install sos
Fedora/Alma/Rocky/RHEL: dnf install sos
Then run sos report --clean and upload the file it generates so we can review it.
I'm a bit confused as to why you're getting cucked by polkit.
@kindred dawn
ubuntu
If you're on Ubuntu, then go ahead and run sudo apt install sos, then once the package is installed run sudo sos report --clean. It will give you a file, you'll need to copy it to your home folder then download it from your server to upload here.
Can you show me a screenshot?
ok that worked
Cool beans, and the other command is working as well?
no
What's it saying?
it says command not found
What release of Ubuntu is this?
cat /etc/os-release should tell you if you aren't sure.
18.04
ok
Oh, make sure you use sudo with it or else it won't work properly: sudo sosreport
it said command not found, I also found an error message in the install of the sosreport package
Show me that error?
ok that did a bunch and I dont see any errors in it
That's good, try running sudo sosreport now.
If it asks for a case number, just hit enter.
ok it started
Cool beans, it'll take a few minutes.
what does this tell us?
It just gathers a bunch of logs and debugging information, I wouldn't normally need this but something weird is going on with systemd and policykit.
Did it give you the path to the file?
yes
sudo mv /path/to/file ~
Then download it using Filezilla or however you normally pull off files.
this might sound weird but how do I conect FileZilla to the server to get that file
Oh, you've never downloaded a file off your server before?
You see the row of text boxes up top, right?
Yeah, but prefix the server IP with sftp:// or else it will try to use FTP instead.
ok
Did FileZilla get you connected okay?
You put your server in like this, right? sftp://12.34.56.78
yea I put the wrong ip
Ah, that'll do it lol
it has several ips kinda forgot witch one was the main one
No worries.
ok got it
Cool beans, drag it here, I'll download it and check a few things, I think I know what went wrong.
ok one sec its not leting me drag on drop im going to dowload it and then do it
Yeah, you have to download it to your computer then Discord will let you upload it.
On the server, run sudo chown myusername ~/sosreport-* replacing myusername with whatever your username is.
Then try downloading it again.
ok
It shouldn't give any output if it worked properly.
Looking now.
@kindred dawn When restarting wings, did you use sudo? sudo systemctl restart wings
pretty sure I did
I didn't not that I look at command logs
I did not do it with sudo
when i did it worked
yea thanks man
