Systemd services running as part of the system systemd aren’t generally permitted to reach into user home directories and change content. Even if you are using runuser (which doesn’t change the fact). If you launched it as part of the user’s systemd session it would be fine. I’m not sure if ProtectHome is enabled by default but I think Selinux also blocks it by default. Put the pid file in someplace like /run. -- Jonathan Billings -- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
