[arch-general] systemd permissions on run?
Did something change recently w.r.t this? I have smbd, postgresql, and squid all failing on me with the following error:- systemd[1]: smbd.service: Permission denied while opening PID file or unsafe symlink chain: /var/run/smbd.pid systemd[1]: postgresql.service: Permission denied while opening PID file or unsafe symlink chain: /var/lib/postgres/data/postmaster.pid systemd[1]: squid.service: Permission denied while opening PID file or unsafe symlink chain: /run/squid.pid The bug tracker only turns u #56966 and #56828 which both have to do with the 'nobody' user.

More curiously, this does NOT happen on another Arch laptop I have (with those same services running). My ls -la results in /run seem to turn up the same thing, nor are there any differences in shadow/gshadow/passwd etc.

Do these seem similar? https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/6632 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=888976 Cheers, -- Leonid Isaev
