Editing the logind Configuration File for RHEL 7.X

Before installing or upgrading Logger on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7.X, you must modify the inter-process communication (IPC) setting of the logind.conf file.

To modify the logind.conf file for RHEL 7.X:

  1. Navigate to the /etc/systemd directory, and open the logind.conf file for editing.
  2. Find the RemoveIPC line. RemoveIPC should be active and set to no.

    Remove the # if it is there, and change the yes to no if appropriate. The correct entry is:

    RemoveIPC=no
  3. Save the file.
  4. From the /etc/systemd directory, enter the following command to restart the systemd-logind service and put the change into effect:

    systemctl restart systemd-logind.service
