systemd-222 still having issues with systemd-tmpfiles-setup failing on boot Unit systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service has begun starting up. Jul 11 09:46:55 harrisl-desktop systemd-tmpfiles[5102]: Cannot set file attribute for '/var/log/journal', value=0x00800000, mask=0x00800000: Inappropriate ioctl for device Jul 11 09:46:55 harrisl-desktop systemd-tmpfiles[5102]: Cannot set file attribute for '/var/log/journal/d95f715e390a4d5b5874f8840006d101', value=0x00800000, mask=0x00800000: Inappropriate ioctl for device Jul 11 09:46:55 harrisl-desktop systemd-tmpfiles[5102]: Cannot set file attribute for '/var/log/journal/remote', value=0x00800000, mask=0x00800000: Inappropriate ioctl for device Jul 11 09:46:55 harrisl-desktop systemd[1]: systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE Jul 11 09:46:55 harrisl-desktop systemd[1]: Failed to start Create Volatile Files and Directories. -- Subject: Unit systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service has failed my /var/log/journal is on a reiserfs volume that is mounted with acl option. I have also tested adding my account and it worked: getfacl: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names # file: var/log/journal # owner: root # group: systemd-journal # flags: -s- user::rwx user:harrisl:rwx #effective:r-x group::r-x mask::r-x other::r-x So acl is working but still errors on startup. I thought this bug was fixed
It's probably the new entries in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/journal-nocow.conf. Can you try running chattr +C /var/log/journal and see if that reproduces the "Innapropriate ioctl for device" message?
chattr +C /var/log/journal chattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device while reading flags on /var/log/journal
note: /var/log is on a raid 10 array
I opened an issue upstream.
lucy ~ # chattr +C /var/log/journal chattr: Operation not supported while setting flags on /var/log/journal lucy ~ # df -T /var/log/journal Filesystem Type 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/vg02-rootlv xfs 210276028 101202852 109073176 49% / So not just reiserfs??

(In reply to Mike Civil from comment #5) Please move discussion to the upstream issue.
