Title: [SOLVED] iwd issue
Post by: robto on 01 December 2022, 17:14:46
I just downloaded iwd . version 2.0
all is well but when i set nameresolving service to resolvconf then iwd does  not start. by default iwd uses systemd-resolvd since this is openrc so with setting resolvconf it does not start with error: start-stop-daemon: /usr/libexec/iwd died. please help
EDIT: when resolvconf is not specified then the iwd service starts and i also gets an ip address and can ping 9.9.9.9 but cannot resolve domain names bcuz this is openrc.

Did you try setting your nameserver through /etc/resolv.conf ?

thanks for reply. I am looking for a solution and while i  am trying to solve it. i came across these issues.
i ran command
Code: [Select]
/usr/libexec/iwd
This gave error of:
No usable resolvconf found on system
Module resolve failed to start

then upon debugging with:
Code: [Select]
/usr/libexec/iwd -d
gives some more info but issues were:
Trying to find resolvconf in $PATH
Trying to find resolvconf in default paths

So please help .. its about 2 days and i am stuck here. Thanks
Note: I have resolv.conf file and with correct nameservers.
