What does this error mean and how can I fix it:
systemd[1671]: Failed to start Tracker metadata extractor.
░░ Subject: A start job for unit UNIT has failed

░░
░░ A start job for unit UNIT has finished with a failure.
░░
░░ The job identifier is 372 and the job result is failed.
It is this:
$ systemctl cat --user tracker-extract-3.service
# /usr/lib/systemd/user/tracker-extract-3.service
[Unit]
Description=Tracker metadata extractor
ConditionUser=!root
[Service]
Type=dbus
BusName=org.freedesktop.Tracker3.Miner.Extract
ExecStart=/usr/lib/tracker-extract-3
Restart=on-failure
# Don't restart after tracker daemon -k (aka tracker-control -k)
RestartPreventExitStatus=SIGKILL
Slice=background.slice
[Install]
WantedBy=default.target
Tracker is a file indexer that extracts metadata from files. It just fails to start.
Nothing to fix. It restarts on-failure:
Restart=on-failure
There is something wrong with it on my system though:
# systemctl --user status tracker-miner-fs-3.service

@whatthe ok… then add this:
systemctl --user edit tracker-miner-fs-3.service
Add there (as explained in the commented text):
[Service]
Environment=G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=Tracker
and save it.
Run this in one terminal:
journalctl --user --follow --unit tracker-miner-fs-3.service
and at another terminal this:
systemctl --user restart tracker-miner-fs-3.service
journalctl --user --follow --unit tracker-miner-fs-3.service
journalctl --user --follow --unit tracker-miner-fs-3.service

So, another instance of tracker-miner-fs-3 is already running. So check your processes and which one starts it.
How can I check that?
