The name org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1 was not provided [solved]

hello
when I do:
"service domoticz start"
I have:
"Failed to start domoticz.service: The name org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1 was not provided by any .service files
See system logs and 'systemctl status domoticz.service' for details."

Don't see much in logs, perhaps I don't know which ones to look at!

I didn't tried "service domoticz stop" nor "reboot"... afraid not be able to restart!
A the present time, domoticz is running...

If Domoticz is already running, why do you want to start it?

Are you trying to run multiple instances?
What version are you running?

Usually "service domoticz restart" doesn't give an error even if domoticz is running.
My comment was to say that I didn't want to test "service domoticz stop" just to see if the issue will be solved after a stop.

I don't need to start it now, but when I want to do it, I don't want to have this issue, as I am aware of it right now. So I would like to solve this issue before having a problem!

just to do

Code: Select all

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo service  domoticz reload
sudo service  domoticz restart
sudo service  domoticz status
and it was ok
