Hello,

i installed nbfc from yay - S nbfc
everything worked well first time i launched it.
Then, at reboot i try to launch it again and i get : connection refused.

systemctl status nbfc                                     ✔  3s 

Hello,

Moved to #support:aur
If you check the comments from AUR (en) - nbfc then most users suggest to use another package, like nbfc-linux or nbfc-git … The one you installed has to be run as described in this discussion:
[SOLVED][systemd] daemon does not start shell script after login / Newbie Corner / Arch Linux Forums

Hello,

thank for moving the post and for your response. I think it isn’t the same problem, what i don’t understand is that if i remove nbfc with yay -R nbfc and reinstall it, it will works:


 sudo systemctl enable nbfc --now                         ✔  10s  
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/nbfc.service → /etc/systemd/system/nbfc.service.
    ~  nbfc config --apply "Asus Zenbook UX410UQ"                       ✔ 
    ~  nbfc status -a                                                   ✔

when i reboot and try to launch nbfc again it will fail with: “connection refused”

Thank you

What do you mean? Once you enabled a service it will automatically start at next reboot.

After reboot the nbfc service seems launched but any command with nbfc output “connection refused”

I think i have the same problem :

erdosb commented on [2018-02-08 10:11]

if I run ‘mono /opt/nbfc/nbfc.exe status -a’ (or 'bash -c ‘nbfc status -a’ to get rid of the fish shell caused problem) I get the following error: “Connection refused” (I also tried with sudo, but got the same.) Any help is appreciated.

Remind you that AUR is Arch User Repository, it is created for Arch, it is unsupported on Arch and it is unsupported on Manjaro.
