Hi all,

seeking some assistance kinder stuck on this.

So i have managed to install it on Rocky Linux 9 ok with "dnf install wireguard-tools" configured it fine and upto nearly last step however stuck here trying to start with "systemctl start wg-quick@wg0"

getting this error:

[root@localhost ~]# sudo systemctl start wg-quick@wg0
Job for wg-quick@wg0.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status wg-quick@wg0.service" and "journalctl -xeu wg-quick@wg0.service" for details.

 

When I check sudo journalctl -u wg-quick@wg0

I see this:

Starting WireGuard via wg-quick(8) for wg0...
Dec 08 00:52:40 localhost wg-quick[51890]: [#] ip link add wg0 type wireguard

Dec 08 00:52:41 localhost systemd[1]: Failed to start WireGuard via wg-quick(8) for wg0.

 

Now, I have already created folder /run/resolvconf with su permission still can get it to start..

 

Any guidance on this please ?

I am missing something... ?

 

many thanks
