Is it some issue with my power button?? Please help its important

If you just want to disable automatic suspend/hybernate, then I think entering the following commands in a terminal ought to do it.

$ sudo mkdir /etc/systemd/sleep.conf.d
$ echo -e "[Sleep]\nAllowSuspend=no\nAllowHibernation=no\nAllowSuspendThenHibernate=no\nAllowHybridSleep=no" | sudo tee /etc/systemd/sleep.conf.d/override.conf
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload

The above settings will persist across reboots. If you later decide that you want to undo the change and re-enable suspend mode, delete the /etc/systemd/sleep.conf.d/override.conf file.

Can you tell me why is this happening? It’s happening continuously now.

7

Now it’s showing a shutting down in 60s pop up and turning off immediately, even I click cancel (sometimes).

8

That does sound like your power switch is shorted. That or maybe your laptop battery is dead? With some laptops, you can remove the battery and run it directly from the wall power outlet.

10

I don’t think its an issue with battery, i guess its a problem with my power button. Can you give the command to disable power off by button press? I will do it by a terminal command or something.

I’ve never tried this, so I don’t know if it will work, but according to the documentation (man logind.conf):

$ sudo mkdir /etc/systemd/logind.conf.d
$ echo -e "[Login]\nHandlePowerKey=ignore\nHandlePowerKeyLongPress=ignore" | sudo tee /etc/systemd/logind.conf.d/override.conf
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload

Edit: I expect that if the power switch is physically damaged, the system might just hard-poweroff instead of going through the normal shutdown sequence. I think the only way you are going to get around that is to fix the switch.
