lvm2: execution failed

[omnigenous]

I'm getting this error on every boot in tty1:

dinit: lvm2: execution failed - setting up standard input/output descriptors: No such file or directory

I checked /var/log/dinit/lvm2.log and it is empty

I can't find anything online with same exact error, not sure if it is anything to do with dinit, let me know.

Hi. Please post your lvm2 service description for more info.

Hint: Did you do dinitctl reload when your service was loaded and you changed service description after that (if it's the case)?

/etc/dinit.d/lvm2:

type      = scripted
command   = /usr/bin/vgchange --sysinit -a y
logfile   = /var/log/dinit/lvm2.log
restart   = false
after     = udev-settle

I didn't change anything myself.

The likely problem is that the configured logfile directory, /var/log/dinit/, doesn't exist (yet) when the service starts. The service needs correct dependencies so that any required directories have been created and the root filesystem is read-only, or alternatively, it needs to use a different logging type.

This is an issue that should be reported to Artix (I'm assuming this is from Artix?), it's not an issue with Dinit itself.

For a workaround, add log-type = buffer and remove logfile = /var/log/dinit/lvm2.log from the service description file.

Thanks, I did post on Artix forum, haven't got a response just yet.

Also, meta question. Should I close discussion after I choose an answer?

No need to close, I think discussions can stay open indefinitely.
