Upgraded to 25.04 yesterday and noticed an issue today. Sometimes systemctl --user commands, threw a "Connection refused", which was new to me. Example: user@host:~$ systemctl --user daemon-reload Failed to connect to user scope bus via local transport: Connection refused So I went to look online and found this workaround in this thread for Arch ( https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=302556 ): unset XDG_RUNTIME_DIR systemctl --user daemon-reexec I know it's a different distro, but still wanted to mention it, especially since we're also using systemd 257 and this should be fixed in 258.
