[Solved] ananicy breaks s6

22 August 2020, 06:46:26

After installing ananicy and putting “exec ananicy start” in the rc.local file, my system becomes borked. I can’t launch sway or even use the poweroff command to shut off the computer. I had to uninstall ananicy and remove it from the rc.local file for s6 to work again. ananicy does include cgroups rules. Could this be breaking s6?

We start s6 service really not from /etc/rc.local.
Please learn how to start service on s6

Please be careful with the rc.local file. You can very easily break things if you put bad commands in there.

I took a quick look at this program on github and it explicitly depends on systemd. It runs "systemd-notify" multiple times, so you're unfortunately out of luck here.

My machine is ok now, but that explains everything. Thanks for the info. I’ll make an issue on his GitHub page (https://github.com/Nefelim4ag/Ananicy) and see if he can make the program more modular, and support other init systems. I’ll upload an ananicy-s6 package if that time comes.
