Help - list all services

tempvuan1 · 2022-02-01 23:53:52

Hello,
What is the preferred method for listing all installed services in Devuan (Chimaera)?

From debian and derivatives, i was used to command:
service --status-all

Regards,

Hi tempvan1,
I think you need to use the whole path
/usr/sbin/service --status-all

Thanks

To su to root, type "su -"
I think that may be your solution. It's in the release notes.

That certainly works. However, for me so does the bare service --status-all (as an ordinary user, under chimaera, tested just now).

The OP can view all installed services (ie, even those not running) by checking /etc/init.d/.

If you've migrated from the Redhat world where you were comfortable with "chkconfig --list",

apt-get install -y sysv-rc-conf

and see if you like "sysv-rc-conf --list".

I have open-rc and so we can use,

rc-update

to view status.

you can add, del or change a service and start level.

rc-update del nethack-common default
rc-update add nethack-common off

I have seen that the old service commands mostly still work, I don't use many of them, and only know a few.

status gives +-? results

service --status-all

type "service" to see the command options.

Hope this helps.
