I am trying to start networkmanager however I get Job for NetworkManager.service failed because a fatal signal was delivered causing the control process to dump core. See "systemctl status NetworkManager.service" and "journalctl -xeu NetworkManager.service" for details.

Can you show the output of systemctl status NetworkManager?

Hmm

#

Can you post your journal

#

#

Idk how you're gonna connect tho

#

Maybe output to a file then copy to some other device

barren fjord Jan 27, 2023, 2:42 PM

#

carmine olive Can you post your journal

Its very long

#

What am I looking for

#

rn_image_picker_lib_temp_f596c8c6-5329-48d7-b0ea-5929c43df0fc.jpg

#

Is AMD x86-64 normal?

#

I see something about systemd-resolved in the NetworkManager page in arch wiki, maybe that's it?

rich robin Jan 27, 2023, 2:50 PM

#

You could try enabling systemd-resolved

carmine olive Jan 27, 2023, 2:50 PM

#

barren fjord

Seems something to do with glibc from the backtrace

barren fjord Jan 27, 2023, 2:50 PM

#

What should I do

carmine olive Jan 27, 2023, 2:51 PM

#

Try what MeDerp said

barren fjord Jan 27, 2023, 2:53 PM

#

How

#

Oh I see it

#

Didn't help

carmine olive Jan 27, 2023, 2:55 PM

#

Have you tried reinstalling NM?

#

pacman -S networkmanager

#

Lowercase, typo sorry

barren fjord Jan 27, 2023, 2:57 PM

#

yes

#

i tried

#

Using the installation media inside chroot

#

Maybe I need to stop conflicting services?

barren fjord Jan 27, 2023, 3:00 PM

#

barren fjord

Maybe one of these?

carmine olive Jan 27, 2023, 3:06 PM

#

Well that's why I asked you to send it but

#

I don't see any other services that manage networks

barren fjord Jan 27, 2023, 3:06 PM

#

Yea?

carmine olive Jan 27, 2023, 3:06 PM

#

So it's not the problem

barren fjord Jan 27, 2023, 3:07 PM

#

Can it be related to system time

#

rn_image_picker_lib_temp_1941419b-e29e-4eb7-94c5-539b4a6fcefc.jpg

#

Is that normal

carmine olive Jan 27, 2023, 3:09 PM

#

Time just times a program

barren fjord Jan 27, 2023, 3:09 PM

#

Oh

carmine olive Jan 27, 2023, 3:09 PM

#

Dk if this could be related to your system clock

barren fjord Jan 27, 2023, 3:10 PM

#

The system clock looks right to me

carmine olive Jan 27, 2023, 3:10 PM

#

barren fjord

From the looks of this I get the feeling that it's a bug

#

Idk tho

#

Try using something like wpa supplicant and send the full journal

carmine olive Jan 27, 2023, 3:17 PM

#

carmine olive From the looks of this I get the feeling that it's a bug

Prob not I have no idea lmao

barren fjord Jan 27, 2023, 3:19 PM

#

That's so frustrating

carmine olive Jan 27, 2023, 3:20 PM

#

.aw wpa supplicant

little pilotBOT Jan 27, 2023, 3:20 PM

#

Arch Wiki: Wpa supplicant

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wpa_supplicant

carmine olive Jan 27, 2023, 3:23 PM

#

Wpa supplicant is a dependency of NM so you should already have it

rich robin Jan 27, 2023, 3:29 PM

#

barren fjord Can it be related to system time

It may be

barren fjord Jan 27, 2023, 3:43 PM

#

Well I can't manage to send the journal

barren fjord Jan 27, 2023, 6:16 PM

#

I've completely reinstalled arch and the error persists. Maybe I am missing some configuration step.

#

?

barren fjord Jan 28, 2023, 1:58 AM

#

Well maybe something's wrong with the package?

carmine olive Jan 28, 2023, 2:05 AM

#

barren fjord Well maybe something's wrong with the package?

Try a different kernel

#

You're using linux right?

barren fjord Jan 28, 2023, 2:06 AM

#

yea

carmine olive Jan 28, 2023, 2:10 AM

#

barren fjord yea

Try linux-lts perhaps it solves it

This error message is indicating that there is a problem with the NetworkManager service, and it is failing to start properly. The message also suggests looking at the output of the commands systemctl status NetworkManager.service and journalctl -xeu NetworkManager.service to get more information about the problem.

You can try the following steps to troubleshoot the issue:

Run the command systemctl status NetworkManager.service to check the status of the service and see if there are any errors or warnings.
Run the command journalctl -xeu NetworkManager.service to view the log of the service and see if there are any relevant error messages.
Check the configuration files for NetworkManager, which are typically located in /etc/NetworkManager/. Make sure that there are no syntax errors in the configuration files, or any incorrect values set.
Check the status of the network interfaces by running the command ip link or ifconfig to see if they are up and running.
Check if there's any other service that might be conflicting with NetworkManager, like systemd-networkd or network-scripts
Restarting your system might also help to fix the problem
If none of the above steps resolve the issue, you can try uninstalling and reinstalling NetworkManager.

Please note that the above steps are just some examples of how you can troubleshoot the problem, and the exact steps may vary depending on your specific system configuration. If you are still having trouble, you might want to consult the documentation or forums for your specific operating system or consider getting help from an expert.

I tried everything, including reinstalling Arch.
However, the error persists. I documented my installation process command by command. I'll send it here so you guys can take a look, see if maybe I missed some step? https://gist.github.com/MaiTheLord/24ba892a84a2c35f58b3aa6304915068

rich robin Jan 28, 2023, 2:00 PM

#

Everything seems fine there

barren fjord Jan 28, 2023, 2:13 PM

#

what should I do then

carmine olive Jan 28, 2023, 3:12 PM

#

barren fjord what should I do then

Have you tried what I said?

#

linux-lts

barren fjord Jan 28, 2023, 3:25 PM

#

yes

#

it didn't change anything

carmine olive Jan 28, 2023, 4:28 PM

#

No idea then

raw wedge Jan 28, 2023, 4:34 PM

#

barren fjord yes

Next time try pacstrap networkmanager wpa_supplicant dhcpd iwctl

#

That’s all the relevant wifi management tools

#

In addition to what you already pacstraped

raw wedge Jan 28, 2023, 4:35 PM

#

barren fjord what should I do then

I think dhcpd is the issue hear but I advise you cast a wide net

barren fjord Jan 28, 2023, 4:36 PM

#

do I have to install them using pacstrap? can't I use pacman -S?

carmine olive Jan 28, 2023, 4:36 PM

#

barren fjord

dhcpd is not the issue

rich robin Jan 28, 2023, 5:00 PM

#

barren fjord do I have to install them using pacstrap? can't I use pacman -S?

you can

#

it may be good to try other network software like iwd and see if they work

raw wedge Jan 28, 2023, 5:09 PM

#

barren fjord do I have to install them using pacstrap? can't I use pacman -S?

Unless you’re connected to a network

barren fjord Jan 28, 2023, 5:09 PM

#

I can chroot again

#

wpa_supplicant is already present

#

and I don't use wifi, so I just need to try dhcpd right?

raw wedge Jan 28, 2023, 8:08 PM

#

barren fjord and I don't use wifi, so I just need to try dhcpd right?

Yes

barren fjord Jan 28, 2023, 8:08 PM

#

do I need to enable it or something?

raw wedge Jan 28, 2023, 8:09 PM

#

barren fjord do I need to enable it or something?

Yes

#

Or download it if you don’t already have it

#

Then reboot

barren fjord Jan 28, 2023, 8:10 PM

#

I do need to download it.

#

I meant, do I need to enable it after I install it?

raw wedge Jan 28, 2023, 8:13 PM

#

Yes

barren fjord Jan 28, 2023, 8:13 PM

#

using systemctl I assume

#

just to to make sure, its dhcpcd, not dhcpd right

raw wedge Jan 28, 2023, 8:14 PM

#

It is dhcpd

#

dhcpd

barren fjord Jan 28, 2023, 8:14 PM

#

is it in pacman?

barren fjord Jan 28, 2023, 8:41 PM

#

oh its in pacman under the name dhcp

barren fjord Jan 28, 2023, 8:42 PM

#

raw wedge Yes

which service do I need to enable though? dhcpd4 or dhcpd6

barren fjord Jan 29, 2023, 8:33 PM

#

well I can't get it to work

rich robin Jan 29, 2023, 8:36 PM

#

You could try and see if it works on another network software like iwd

barren fjord Jan 29, 2023, 8:56 PM

#

isn't it specifically for wifi

barren fjord Jan 29, 2023, 10:36 PM

#

not sure if I showed this yet

carmine olive Jan 29, 2023, 10:41 PM

#

Yep, you did

carmine olive Jan 29, 2023, 10:42 PM

#

barren fjord not sure if I showed this yet

These files are from glib2 and glibc

#

I'm guessing it's something to do with those libs

barren fjord Jan 29, 2023, 10:44 PM

#

https://libsoup.org/glib/glib-Threads.html#g-private-get

#

could that be causing the segfault

#

I guess its trying to deref it?

#

but its null?

carmine olive Jan 29, 2023, 10:46 PM

#

no idea sorry
