Error. Socket doesn't exit. Is daemon running?

Support AUR

Hi
Im new to the forum so sorry if wrong category

I tried downloading this (cant post links)
razer-laptop-control-git
razer-laptop-control-dkms-git

the download went perfecty fine. but when i try to execute the command i get the error : Error. Socket doesn’t exit. Is daemon running? and i honestly dont know how to fix this

the command i used was ‘‘razer-cli help’’ wich is a command. this should display the other commands i can use to change RGB/fan/power control. the controls for the RGB/fan/power control give the same error

Kind regards.

That should give you a clue that it requires a background service to run.

pacman -Ql razer-laptop-control-git | grep service

You’ll see there is one. You can enable it to start on boot and start it now with one command:

systemctl enable --now razerdaemon
4

executed both commands and it still gives the same error

kind regards
