My guess is that it goes like this: 1. shepherd starts =E2=80=98networking=E2=80=99, which triggers the start= of =E2=80=98wpa-supplicant=E2=80=99 (PID 398), which immediately =E2=80= =9Cfails=E2=80=9D. Thus =E2=80=98networking=E2=80=99 is not started. 2. shepherd continues and starts =E2=80=98wpa-supplicant=E2=80=99 directl= y (PID 400). This time it fails for good; after 5 seconds, since the PID file didn=E2=80=99t show up, shepherd says again that it could not be start= ed. Indeed, by looking at shepherd.conf from: guix gc -R $(guix system build gnu/system/install.scm) | grep shepherd.co= nf one can see that =E2=80=98networking=E2=80=99 comes before =E2=80=98wpa-sup= plicant=E2=80=99 in the expression: (for-each start '(=E2=80=A6 networking =E2=80=A6 wpa-supplicant =E2=80=A6= )) So why is =E2=80=98wpa-supplicant=E2=80=99 marked as failing to start on th= e first attempt? The only reason I can think of is if =E2=80=98read-pid-file=E2=80=99 from (= shepherd service) returns immediately and returns #f instead of a number. That can actually happen if the PID file exists but is empty (or contains garbage). You would expect wpa_supplicant to create its PID file atomically: write it under a different name, then rename(2)=E2=80=A6 but no: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- int os_daemonize(const char *pid_file) { #if defined(__uClinux__) || defined(__sun__) return -1; #else /* defined(__uClinux__) || defined(__sun__) */ if (os_daemon(0, 0)) { perror("daemon"); return -1; } if (pid_file) { FILE *f =3D fopen(pid_file, "w"); if (f) { fprintf(f, "%u\n", getpid()); fclose(f); } } return -0; #endif /* defined(__uClinux__) || defined(__sun__) */ } --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- So there is a possibility, albeit unlikely, for shepherd to see the PID file after it=E2=80=99s been open but before it=E2=80=99s been written to. = (This problem is not limited to the installer.) I=E2=80=99m not 100% convinced that this is what=E2=80=99s happening there = but that=E2=80=99s the only lead I have. I=E2=80=99m surprised we haven=E2=80=99t seen other = reports before. Thoughts?

Could you check whether the sequence of events in /var/log/messages always looks like the snippet I showed? Could you also: 1. Let the installation image boot; 2. Confirm with =E2=80=98herd status wpa-supplicant=E2=80=99 that the =E2= =80=98wpa-supplicant=E2=80=99 service is marked as stopped (failed to start); 3. Show the contents /var/run/wpa_supplicant.pid, and check whether they correspond to the PID of a running =E2=80=98wpa_supplicant=E2=80= =99 process. ? Besides, do you have a Guix(SD) installation, recent or not, that uses wpa_supplicant? If so, does it suffer from the same problem (=E2=80=98wpa-supplicant=E2=80=99 service fails to start)? Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.

Service wpa-supplicant has been started. again and again incessantly, one immediately after the other with no time in between. By the way, the network connection only failed sometimes when I tested Guix 1.0.0, but since I started using a Guix disk image from a more recent Guix, wpa-supplicant apparently always fails.

Awesome, thanks for testing. Note that I made similar changes in shepherd, which I=E2=80=99ll probably release as 0.6.1 so we can use it in Guix 1.0.1: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/shepherd.git/log Ludo=E2=80=99.
