OneDrive 2.4.25 expects 2.4.23

Help
1

I expect this is an error:
I have onedrive 2.4.25 but when I execute “systemctl --user status onedrive@onedrive.service”, it’s clear that service is looking to start 2.4.23:

Process: 10616 ExecStart=/nix/store/g2p5whp0kb2q0ks620j9xl7pyq16l1x5-onedrive-2.4.23/bin/onedrive --monitor --confdir=/home/mornar/.config/onedrive (code=exited, status=203/EXEC)

This is due to stale /home/mornar/.config/systemd/user/onedrive@onedrive.service.
Shouldn’t this file be overwritten as part of rebuild?

Well, turns out it’s not created with a rebuild after onedrive is enabled.
Am I missing a step?

The onedrive NixOS module doesn’t create systemd units under $HOME, so you must have made those manually at some point. Additionally, the NixOS module runs a launcher that looks for config under $HOME/.config/onedrive in order to run the various instances.

I suggest blowing away your local unit files and then do systemctl –user daemon-reload followed by systemctl –user start onedrive-launcher.

Thanks, Peter.

I’m sure I did not create the following file. It has references to specific nix store directories - I’m sure it was auto generated.

Also, although onedrive is working, the directories in the [Services] section do not exist (anymore).

What is the right way to recreate this file?

Maybe you copied in the generated file in order to test out some adjustments without having to rebuild your configuration every time? I have done that before and also being bitten by the “my manually used file is referencing something old”.

The nixos generated user units all end up under /etc/systemd/user. $HOME/.config/systemd isn’t touched.

What is the right way to recreate this file?

The module should have created the correct file under /etc/systemd/user.

I get it now, thanks!
For some unknown reason, I created the file in $HOME/.config/systemd. I removed it now as I see no use of it.
Then I reloaded the daemon and restarted the launcher.
All seems to work ok now.
