Creating the symbolic link should be all that's required to have it enabled ie no need to run 'systemctl enable...' after that. I can't replicate the error you're getting, so hard to advise further...

What does the following command report?

Code:

---

systemctl status r8169-reload.service

Hi, I get this:

I can't begin to think what is causing that error

For reference, I get

Code:

---

# systemctl status r8169-reload
r8169-reload.service - Reload wireless driver after system resume
  Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/r8169-reload.service; enabled)
  Active: inactive (dead)

---

Can you show what your service file looks like?

Code:

---

cat /etc/systemd/system/r8169-reload.service

---

It is important to note that I'm doing all of this in an openSUSE 13.2 environment, whereas you are doing this with Tumbleweed. I'm not sure how this might impact here, but clearly it is. Hopefully, others can chime in here. You may need to submit a bug report for this. The underlying issue with the r8169 driver (following resume) could also be reported, since we're effectively only attempting to work around that issue here.

That's it! The very first "[" bracket before "Unit" was missing. It still shows me the errors, but at least my NIC now reconnects on resume. I'm sorry to have taken your time with silly oversight on side and thank you for the info. I have learned something new and got my issue resolved thanks to you.

I started to suspect a syntax error of some kind, but not possible to know without seeing the .service file you created. Anyway, I'm glad you checked and found the missing character, and it is now working to your satisfaction! Yes, it's all part of the learning. :)
