Unable to register authentication agent: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.

Hi guys .,

when i am trying to update or start any service it is giving error ?

[root@myliveserver~]$ systemctl start fail2ban

** (pkttyagent:15019): WARNING **: 10:05:16.814: Unable to register authentication agent: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed: Cannot determine user of subject
Error registering authentication agent: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed: Cannot determine user of subject (polkit-error-quark, 0)


i am using cwp7 webpanel
hosting few live websites.

This has been addressed previously:

Or simply:

Code: [Select]

mount proc -o remount,hidepid=0
systemctl restart polkit.service
(Also consider upgrading to AlmaLinux 8 or 9.)
