  1. Btsync With Systemd On Linux Doesn't Connect On Startup

    in Sync Troubleshooting

    Posted

    Hi,

     

    I had looked at that service file on the AUR. I've tried versions of it that do the same thing. The service file I posted is very similar but waits on a slightly more advanced neworking target and specifies the multi-user target for its WantedBy condition rather than the default target which I believe will be the same thing on arch.

     

    I've put in place a workaround from here:

     

    https://github.com/rodolpheh/nm-dispatcher-btsync

     

    I installed the 50-btsync file into my /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/ folder and ran:

    sudo -ichmod +x /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/50-btsyncgroupadd btsync-usersusermod -a -G btsync-users "<MY-USERNAME>"

    This method of starting the systemd service has the advantage that it handles things like VPNs better.
    It does seem like a problem though that this is necessary on some systems.

     

    Using this method I no longer get the error message about

    NAT-PMP: Unable to map port with NAT-PMP.

  2. Btsync With Systemd On Linux Doesn't Connect On Startup

    Hi,

     

    I've tried setitng up BTSync with systemd on Linux (Fedora 20). I followed the instructions here:

     

    http://forum.bittorrent.com/topic/23948-btsync-fedora-at-startup-and-working-start-stop-service/?p=68468

     

    Which I've got loading for my user on boot OK but when it loads it always fails to connect to any peers until I reboot the service. It always almost immediately connects to a local peer once I've restarted the service.

     

    Here is the log where it fails to connect:

    And here is the log after I reboot the service:

    I notice that there is always a network unreachabel message on the failed connection attempt at boot. And I've noticed now that there also seems to be a NAT-PMP error message as well.

     

    I have told it to wait for networking in a couple of ways in the systemd service file: "After=network.target" and "After=network-online.target". But neither has helped.

     

    Here is the current state of my service file:

    [Unit]Description=BitTorrent Sync for %iAfter=network-online.target[Service]Type=simpleUser=%iExecStart=/usr/local/bin/btsync --nodaemon --config %h/.sync/sync.confRestart=on-abortWorkingDirectory=%h[Install]WantedBy=multi-user.target

    And I have it enabled on boot for my user with:

     

    systemctl enable btsync@michael
