Firewalld Active: failed

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server SLES Configure-Administer

Hello All,

I’m trying to start firewalld in SLES 15-SP1 but I get the following errors:

[CODE]systemctl status firewalld.service
● firewalld.service - firewalld - dynamic firewall daemon
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/firewalld.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)

systemctl start firewalld.service Job for firewalld.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status firewalld.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

Version:

firewalld-0.5.5-4.24.9.noarch

On this machine AppArmor is currently Active: active (exited). I don’t know if this has something to do with firewalld not starting!

Can anyone provide some guidance/tips!

Get the arguments that the firewalld daemon is started up with.
Most probably that is inside /etc/sysconfig/firewall or /etc/sysconfig/firewalld

Then run manually :

/usr/sbin/firewalld --nofork --nopid ARGUMENTS-FROM-CONF
