Troubleshooting Linux Services

The following topics provide possible causes for service issues and describe how to troubleshoot:

Flex Gateway Service Failed to Run

The flex-gateway.service status displays failed after running the systemctl list-units flex-gateway* command.

Diagnose

To diagnose the service failure, run the following command:

journalctl -u flex-gateway

Error 1: “Panic: could not read platform configuration”

If the output of the journalctl command includes this line:

flex-agent[3253]: panic: could not read platform configuration: open : no such file or directory

The problem can be resolved by running chmod on the files created during registration.

Other Services Failed to Run

If your error does not appear, attempt to restart Flex Gateway:

sudo ldconfig
sudo systemctl restart flex-gateway
