[systemd-devel] systemd-update-utmp fails

[Michael Olbrich]

Hi,

systemd-update-utmp fails here like this:

systemd-update-utmp[413]: Failed to write utmp record: No such file or directory

I'm not sure why. /var/run/ is writable but for some reason /var/run/utmp
is not created. If I touch /var/run/utmp before running systemd-update-utmp
it works and /var/run/utmp is updated.
I don't really know how this stuff works. Where is /var/run/utmp supposed
to be created?

Regards,
Michael
