Description M. Kristall 2023-09-14 19:20:03 UTC
Description of problem:
Since a couple updates ago, I could not start netdata with systemctl / on startup

The service file distributed on epel is a bit different from the upstream service file, which does not have this problem (any longer).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
netdata-1.42.2-1.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. systemctl start netdata
2.
3.

Actual results:
(code=exited, status=233/RUNTIME_DIRECTORY)

Expected results:
active (running)

Additional info:
A workaround mentioned by Nemric on the Github issue is to comment out the following lines in the service file:

> ExecStartPre=/bin/mkdir -p /run/netdata
> ExecStartPre=/bin/chown -R netdata /run/netdata
