so I made this .service in /etc/systemd/system to run a script when a Thumb Drive is mounted, here is the code:
#!/bin/bash
[Unit]
Description=My Flash Backup script trigger
After=media-Drive.mount
[Service]
Type=notify
ExecStart=/bin/bash /home/user/Documents/Backup.sh
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
The problem is that it gives a failed (Result: protocol)
this means that I need to restart the daemon every time I want to mount the thumb drive, which just makes manually launching it from a terminal alias much easier... how to make it so that I don't need to reload?
Also, when I try to systemctl start Backup.service it gives
Job for Backup.service failed because the service did not take the steps required by its unit configuration.
See "systemctl status Backup.service" and "journalctl -xeu Backup.service" for details.
and with systemctl status Backup.service
Aug 11 20:38:22 creator-5 systemd[1]: Backup.service: Failed with result 'protocol'.
Aug 11 20:38:22 creator-5 systemd[1]: Failed to start Backup.service - My Flash Backup script trigger.
What did I understand or done wrong?
edit1: if it matters, the script is executable, and it's a rsync command
Edit2: now it works fine, now I must make it so that it works every time the drive is mounted and not only the first time in each login session.
The service now looks like this:
[Unit]
Description=My Flash Backup script trigger
After=media-Drive.mount
[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/bin/bash /home/user/Documents/Backup.sh
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Edit3: also, if possible, i'd like to make it run every 10 mins the drive is mounted...
