{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DiscussionForumPosting","headline":"Journal polling not working on Ubuntu 24.04","articleBody":"This code was working on Ubuntu 22.04, with python3-systemd version 234:\n```py\n j = systemd.journal.Reader()\n j.this_boot()\n j.log_level(systemd.journal.LOG_INFO)\n j.add_match(SYSLOG_IDENTIFIER=\"kernel\")\n\n # Seek to the end of the journal to only capture new entries\n j.seek_tail()\n\n while True:\n if j.wait(10):\n for entry in j:\n # do things\n```\n\nBut on Ubuntu 24.04 and python3-systemd version 235, it is not working anymore. Especially, the \"for\" loop does not encounter any item. If we try to run `next(j)` it immediately raises StopIteration, even if `j.wait(timeout)` returned APPEND.\n\nI also tried the \"Example: polling for journal events\" code from the documentation (https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/python-systemd/journal.html#example-polling-for-journal-events) and it is not working.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/SkytAsul","@type":"Person","name":"SkytAsul"},"datePublished":"2025-06-18T12:52:35.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":1},"url":"https://github.com/146/python-systemd/issues/146"}
