Public bug reported:
Hello,
since the 18 of April 2020 some of my Ubuntu 20.04 (focal) installations
report the following error:
May 18 17:27:06 city systemd[1]: Starting Refresh fwupd metadata and update
motd...
May 18 17:27:06 city systemd[1]: fwupd-refresh.service: Main process exited,
code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
May 18 17:27:06 city systemd[1]: fwupd-refresh.service: Failed with result
'exit-code'.
May 18 17:27:06 city systemd[1]: Failed to start Refresh fwupd metadata and
update motd.
At first I thought this is sporadic and will go away, but since one
month this error is reported constantly.
This only happens on machines that was installed from a focal ISO file.
Installations that was upgraded form earlier Ubuntu version to focal
work fine. Also machines that are already on a newer Version of Ubuntu
don't show this problem.
Trying to start the fwupd-refresh.service manually on the affected
machines shows the following:
sudo systemctl status fwupd-refresh
● fwupd-refresh.service - Refresh fwupd metadata and update motd
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/fwupd-refresh.service; static; vendor
