Hi,
I installed Guix package manger on my machine running Fedora 30 using the
automatic script recommended in the Binary Installation
part(https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Binary-Installation.html
(https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Binary-Installation.html)).
While running guix commands, I got the following error:
guix build: error: failed to connect to `/var/guix/daemon-socket/socket':
Connection refused
I found that guix-daemon process is not running( `ps -aux | grep "[g]uix"`
returned nothing). There is a guix-daemon.service file in /etc/systemd/system/
but running `systemctl start guix-daemon` is not running the daemon.
Manually starting the daemon with `
~root/.config/guix/current/bin/guix-daemon
--build-users-group=guixbuild`
as mentioned in the 5th section of Binary Installation starts the daemon and
guix works normally as expected.
Thanks and Regards,
Hari G
