pi@duet3:~ $ cat /etc/systemd/system/ustreamer@.service
cat: /etc/systemd/system/ustreamer@.service: No such file or directory

Looks like the first one is there, but not the second.
I think it's something with my editor but don't know how to check to see.

@luckyflyer maybe try making it executable?

sudo chmod +x /etc/systemd/system/ustreamer@.service

(long shot)

luckyflyer

tried it,

pi@duet3:~ $ sudo chmod +x /etc/systemd/system/ustreamer@.service
chmod: cannot access '/etc/systemd/system/ustreamer@.service': No such file or directory

@gtj0 @bearer
Been reading up on the cat command, was wondering if that would be a good way to create and save the missing file?

A Former User

hmm, does the filename have a : at the end?

sudo mv /etc/systemd/system/ustreamer@.service: /etc/systemd/system/ustreamer@.service
sudo chmod +x /etc/systemd/system/ustreamer@.service

@gtj0 said,
@luckyflyer Are you sure the ustreamer@.service file is located in /etc/systemd/system and that it's named exactly that?
I noticed that in

ls -al /etc/systemd/system

that in line 29 it is

ustreamer@.service:

With a colon, instead of

ustreamer@.service

Is this a problem?

luckyflyer

They say great minds think alike................ maybe, I don't know lol.

well, you can use cat and heredoc to create files like so

cat << EOF > /tmp/yourfilehere
These contents will be written to the file.
        This line is indented.
EOF

but redirects and sudo gets messy so you'd need something like

cat << EOF | sudo tee /tmp/yourfilehere
These contents will be written to the file.
        This line is indented.
EOF

but you'll have to deal with escaping on the command line etc. i to use it from time to time, but its not always the best option.

sudo mv renames it

sudo mv /etc/systemd/system/ustreamer@.service: /etc/systemd/system/ustreamer@.service
sudo chmod +x /etc/systemd/system/ustreamer@.service

edit thats better.
