<![CDATA[KeexyBox's forum - DHCP]]> https://forum.keexybox.org/ Fri, 17 Apr 2026 10:38:29 +0000 MyBB <![CDATA[[solved] dhcpd can't start on all interfaces]]> https://forum.keexybox.org/Thread-solved-dhcpd-can-t-start-on-all-interfaces Thu, 08 Jul 2021 18:32:50 +0000 diozea]]> https://forum.keexybox.org/Thread-solved-dhcpd-can-t-start-on-all-interfaces Systemctl gives me:
● dhcpcd.service loaded failed failed    dhcpcd on all interfaces

So I'm not sure what's the really impact of the failed state of dhcpd service. What's your recommendation?
Tips: You should display more informations in "Services and power" (such as the detail status of each service, with the error). And add the service "logrotate"?

Do we need to indicate which scope is autoritative?

By the way, there is an issue with the time zone in the GUI. My timezone is Europe/Paris  but when I checked in raspi-config it was "London".

I've generated the dhcp file again, but no dice.
Any tips on how I can troubleshoot would be greatly appreciated! And please let me know if there's any more information I can provide.]]>
