samba and lighttpd won't start automatically (v6.4) [solved]

[BennyBubble]

Hi,

Recently I've installed dietpi on my rpi 2 b+, all works well, very happy !
However after installing samba server and lighttpd/mariadb (using dietpi-software), I noticed they won't start automatically.
After boot I first have to ssh into the rpi and start both services, after which both run flawlessy !

How (and were) can I set the way they start up ? I prefer both services start direclty after booting.

Any hints greatly appreciated !

Solution:
It turns out there is a delayed start voor dietpi-services, after a while they seems to be running.
Still didn't figure out how long after boot the services are running but they do after a while.

Hi,

After reboot, please check service status results (paste results):

Code: Select all

dietpi-services status

First command after boot :

root@myPi:~# dietpi-services status
[ OK ] Root access verified.

DietPi-Services
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Mode: status

[ INFO ] DietPi-Services | cron inactive (dead)
[ INFO ] DietPi-Services | smbd inactive (dead)

Any thoughts ?

After dietpi-services start :

root@MyPi:~# dietpi-services start
[ OK ] Root access verified.

I assume these services should start automatically but how ?

I am having this same issue. basically, all of my services do not start after reboot... all show inactive (dead)... I can enable all and everything starts working just fine... I can probably fix it with a scheduled task, but I'd like to know what is actually going on...

@oldirtdog
I believe it's due to a known bug in v6.21, resolved with v6.22 ETA this weekend.

Please try to resolve:

Code: Select all

sed -i '/After=/s/[[:blank:]]multi-user.target//' /etc/systemd/system/dietpi-postboot.service
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable dietpi-postboot
