Here's what it says: root@khufu:~# systemctl status plocate-updatedb.timer ○ plocate-updatedb.timer - Update the plocate database daily Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/plocate-updatedb.timer; disabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: inactive (dead) Trigger: n/a Triggers: ● plocate-updatedb.service
I noticed the "disabled" line, so I enabled it. Now it says root@khufu:~# systemctl status plocate-updatedb.timer ○ plocate-updatedb.timer - Update the plocate database daily Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/plocate-updatedb.timer; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: inactive (dead) Trigger: n/a Triggers: ● plocate-updatedb.service We'll see how it goes tonight. -- Ron Murray <r...@rjmx.net> PGP Fingerprint: 4D99 70E3 2317 334B 141E 7B63 12F7 E865 B5E2 E761 On Mon, 2022-04-18 at 20:49 +0200, Steinar H.
