Hello, It appears you haven't launched BIRD for it to 1. create the socket, and 2. to listen on it. If you don't have any other manually started running instances (to verify, run ps -aux | grep bird and check if there are any other instances), you should just run systemctl start bird and if you want it to auto-start, systemctl enable bird. P.S.: sorry for mailing in private, I clicked on the wrong button. On 22.3.2020 г. 10:56, Fabiano D'Agostino wrote:
Hi, thank you I tried to do systemctl stop bird, but I got this error: Failed to stop bird.service: Unit bird.service not loaded.

Hello, the "proper" way to start BIRD would be to use systemd with systemctl start bird, or if you're using init.d /etc/init.d/bird start. Most other ways aren't really advised, unless they are done for debugging.
