Hi,

At Each reboot from my fedora server 34 the same story occurs since a recent update

I m getting this :

Global

resolv.conf mode: stub

Which is what I get when I m restarting the service but it’s still annoying.
Especially since I can’t set any global dns server since there is not /etc/resolvconf folder.
But anyway since the configuration didn’t change, it must be a wrong startup booting sequence for resolvectl

I think I’m experiencing the same issue, but I’m using Fedora workstation. I, too, installed an update recently that seems to have broken DNS. I have a pretty generic setup, HP Pavilion laptop, no VPN, home router with DHCP. I took some (possibly bad) advice from the internet and modified /etc/systemd/resolved.conf, adding my local router as DNS and Google DNS as fallback. Nothing changed when I did this, but after I issue the command sudo systemctl restart systemd-resolved.service it begins to work again, until the next reboot.

Perhaps you can start collecting diagnostics:

nmcli general status; nmcli connection show; \
networkctl --no-pager status; networkctl --no-pager list
5

At which stage ? When it fils or even after the restart of the process?

That’s the stage after having the service restarted and when it is working. Network manager is activated. Systemd-networkd is not loaded.

Your issue might be related to the following:
1840790 – systemd-resolved preserves DNS for inactive wired connections
A possible workaround is replacing NetworkManager with systemd-networkd.

7

What would you recommend on a server?

8

Yep, this is how I set up the networking on my servers:

Okey I will give it a go then

Hi, this is happening to me too in Fedora 34 Workstation.

I’ve opened this bug report: 1977661 – systemd-resolved not working after boot

11

Did you reference this forum thread just for the sake of the argument ?

12

Now yes :wink:

13

@jorti @vgaetera the problem has been resolved in the new kernel update 12.13
Still going to configure with systems-network but it’s nice that it has been resolved

But just FYI, there is now a little bug (if we can call it that). A stall in the startup process at the next step after reach boot partition or root partition? After having accepted the password for encrypted partition

14

I remember why I didn’t use it. It is not compatible with cockpit correct ?
