+ # Troubleshooting Avahi

3
+ ## Resetting the cache
4
+
5
+ Avahi keeps a cache of old results. To reset the cache, kill the daemon. It will
6
+ auto-restart.
7
+
8
+ ` sudo avahi-daemon --kill `
9
+
10
+ ## Stopping the daemon
11
+
12
+ If you really want to stop the daemon, killing it is not sufficient because it
13
+ will just restart. To stop it completely:
14
+
15
+ ```
16
+ sudo systemctl mask avahi-daemon.socket
17
+ sudo systemctl disable avahi-daemon
18
+ sudo systemctl stop avahi-daemon
19
+ ```
20
+
21
+ ## Problem: Failed to create avahi group: Not permitted
22
+
23
+ Avahi is not set up to publish records by default. This has to be explicitly
24
+ allowed in the config file. In /etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf, add the following
25
+ lines:
26
+
27
+ ```
28
+ [publish]
29
+ disable-user-service-publishing=no
30
+ ```
31
+
32
+ Then restart the daemon
33
+
34
+ ```
35
+ sudo systemctl restart avahi
36
+ ```
You can’t perform that action at this time.
