Failed to execute /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install: No such file or directory
mhbaustin I recall getting that same error. Doing some research I think my vmware service is starting because the vmware-usbarbitrator service was successfully enabled and it requires the vmware service. I'm not 100% clear on all the workings of systemd, but I think the enable command we are using sees the sysv style init script in /etc/init.d and is trying to run the built in sysv wrappers to enable that command directly. Solus, as a pure systemd OS has not implemented the systemd-sysv-install script. Here's the link to the skeleton for that script, which gives some explanation: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/master/src/systemctl/systemd-sysv-install.SKELETON
After a bunch of research on systemd, I decided to try enabling the vmware.service
file but by using the full path, like this:
sudo systemctl enable /etc/systemd/system/vmware.service
And viola, it worked:
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/vmware.service → /etc/systemd/system/vmware.service
If you are not using the vmware-usbarbitrator.service
or you just want the service to install (hopefully) correctly, then maybe this command (above) could help?
