Hi, I have NetworkManager 1.10.8 on Fedora 28 here. Networking is up and working fine but nm-online -s fails, even though nm-online (without -s) succeeds: $ nm-online Connecting............... 30s [online] $ nm-online -s Connecting... 30s Connecting... 29s Connecting... 28s ... Connecting............... 0s [offline] I'm not even sure what causes this state to know where to even start looking for the problem. Clearly given the description for the -s argument, NM doesn't think it's started up, but everything that needs to be up for networking to be working is up. Not sure what's useful in diagnosing this sort of thing but for starters:
hi, nm-online in "--wait-for-startup" mode is very different from the regular mode (as the manual page explains). Essentially, --wait-for-startup waits until you see a message NetworkManager[1206]: <info> [1527852777.2184] manager: startup complete in the logfile After that point, startup is always considered completed. Hence, -- wait-for-startup only matters, after starting NM daemon (e.g. during boot). `nm-online -s` is thus only useful in conjunction with /usr/lib/systemd/system/NetworkManager-wait-online.service. And plain `nm-online` is probably never useful :) If you enable level=TRACE logging (see [1]), you will also see messages: manager: check_if_startup_complete returns FALSE because of eth0 which tells you reasons why NM thinks startup is not completed yet. If you dig further, search for "pending.action" messages: (eth0): add_pending_action (1): 'carrier-wait' (eth0): remove_pending_action (0): 'carrier-wait' As long as there are such pending actions on a device, startup-complete won't be reached either. Pending-actions are not the only reason for blocking startup-complete, but a common one. best, Thomas [1] https://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/tree/contrib/fedora/rpm/NetworkManager.conf
