I’m unable to stop it.

BASHY $ time sudo systemctl stop waydroid-container
Job for waydroid-container.service canceled.

I have been able to stop it, if I keep going, but I’m not able to start it again, so I think some parts of it is still running.

Can I make sure none of it is running?

Also, I’m trying to make a bug report in github, but it asks for

/var/lib/waydroid/waydroid.cfg
/var/lib/waydroid/waydroid.prop
/var/lib/waydroid/waydroid_base.prop
/var/lib/waydroid/waydroid.log

Where are these in NixOS?:wink:

waydroid should have a desktop file named Shutdown Waydroid. The lxc container probably keeps running as you otherwise cannot start it anymore?

If they are generated by waydroid they should be in the same location. If they come shipped with the package they are in the nix store next to the waydroid binary.
The log could also be inside journalctl.

That is supposed to be in /run/current-system/sw/share/applications?

Yeah I’ve never seen a Shutdown Waydroid desktop file.

@famadorian did you try sudo waydroid session stop?

EDIT: after testing on my machine I’m actually able to stop the waydroid-container service, and running waydroid via desktop file starts up the service again. Maybe I’m missing something here.

I was able to stop it before, but I think maybe something has crashed somewhere, cause I tried to mount bind some directories in there. I have unmounted them, but it might be related. It probably works again if I reboot, but I don’t really want to do that now;)

It’s just weird that systemctl stop waydroid-container can’t give me any error message why it can’t stop it.
