I can't unmask a service on Kubuntu Wily 15.10
I'm using Kubuntu Wily 15.10 (fully upgraded). It already had installed the cryptsetup
package.
I'm trying to start the cryptdisks service but I get this:
$ sudo service cryptdisks start
Failed to start cryptdisks.service: Unit cryptdisks.service is masked.
And yes, it's masked.
$ sudo systemctl list-unit-files | grep cryptdisks
cryptdisks-early.service masked
cryptdisks.service masked
If I try to unmask the service, nothing happens.
$ sudo systemctl unmask cryptdisks-early.service
$ sudo systemctl unmask cryptdisks.service
$ sudo systemctl list-unit-files | grep cryptdisks
cryptdisks-early.service masked
cryptdisks.service masked
Take note that systemctl unmask
does not return anything. What can I do?
Check if you have a symlink /etc/systemd/system/cryptdisks.service
or /lib/systemd/system/cryptdisks.service
to /dev/null
. If so, delete the symlink manually.
And also for cryptdisks-early.service
.
After that:
sudo apt-get remove cryptsetup
sudo apt-get install cryptsetup
