I have written the following systemd service to login at the wireless at boot:
[Unit]
Description=Wireless network connectivity (%i)
Wants=network.target
Before=network.target
BindsTo=sys-subsystem-net-devices-%i-device
After=sys-subsystem-net-devices-%i-device
[Service]
Type=oneshot
RemainAfterExit=yes
ExecStart=/usr/bin/ip link set dev %i up
ExecStart=/usr/bin/wpa_supplicant -B -i %i -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
ExecStart=/usr/bin/dhcpcd %i
ExecStop=/usr/bin/ip link set dev %i down
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
I then enable
it but I get the following error every time I boot my computer:
[abc@arch ~]$ systemctl --failed
UNIT LOAD ACTIVE SUB DESCRIPTION
● network-wireless@wlp3s0.service loaded failed failed Wireless network connectivity (wlp3s0)
However if I manually start this service after boot with:
systemctl start network-wireless@xlp3s0
the service starts as expected.
This is the content of wpa_supplicant.conf
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=wheel
network={
ssid="TeliaGateway30-91-8F-1C-B2-29"
#psk="A80871A90A"
psk=b4d8a1e9ad665eed0178fea6f141134e795e15183a661848b371a41bb73a6844
}
Why is this services starting ok when starting it manually but not at boot and how can I change it to start at boot?
EDIT: Added error output: This is what error im getting:
[abc@arch ~]$ journalctl -b -u network-wireless@wlp3s0.service

EDIT: I have found one potetential error, it seems as if the network interface changes name from wlan0 during boot, however i have tried starting the service with wlan0 but with no change in the result.
The reason the service stops at boot is because the ip
command cannot find the interface. According to the man page for systemd services that is enough reason to fail the service.
As you noticed yourself the interface gets renamed or is not ready yet at boot.
After=
statementsystemd-analyze
command if the ordering at boot is correct Personally I would make dhcpd and wpa_supplicant separate services and use systemd's networkd or an udev rule to bring up the interface (if that is even needed). There are a lot examples of unit files for wpa_supplicant
and dhcpd
online maybe have look at those?
