Hi,

...

I have been getting the following error whenever I try to run journalctl:

Assertion 'size > 0' failed at src/journal/mmap-cache.c:615, function mmap_cache_get(). Aborting. zsh: abort journalctl

Initially I thought it had something to do with the new sealing key functionality of systemd, so I ran journalctl --setup-keys which ran without a problem. However this error persists even after generating the sealing keys, so now I'm not so sure if they're related. I'm running systemd 189-3 (with systemd-sysvcompat 189-3) from the testing repo with permanent logging enabled (I have a /var/log/journal directory created). Does anybody have an idea what could be causing the problem? I apologize if this is some standard issue that may have been covered on the wiki, in which case I would greatly appreciate if someone were to point me in the right direction.

TIA.

I can confirm this. After update to systemd 189 I have the same problem. Systemd 188 works fine on my computer.

I still haven't fixed this issue. Strangely though it works fine on my desktop (which also is using systemd 189 from testing). It's rather puzzling. -- Aurko Roy GPG key: 0x20C5BC31 Fingerprint:76B4 9677 15BE 731D 1949 85BA 2A31 B442 20C5 BC31
