Temporary failure in name resolution

21 May 2023, 09:58:43

Installed artix from base runit iso yesterday night. After reboot got "Tepmorary failure in name resolution" when trying to ping anything. Today I booted from the live cd and noticed I can't ping anything from live cd either. Downloaded the latest iso and tried to connect to wifi again using wpa_cli, now it pings. Chrooted into the installed system and reinstalled wpa_supplicant and dhcpcd. Still no result. Pinging 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 gives "Network is unreachable".

Also, I seem not to understand how to restart services using runit. When I issue "sv restart wpa_supplicant" is says that the file is not found(both on the installed system and live cd). What I could've done wrong?

Unlike the DE ISOs, base only install what you instruct them to. Make sure you install wpa_supplicant-runit with basestrap.
See https://wiki.artixlinux.org/Main/Runit#Basic_usage too.
