    There was a bug previously where nextdns would flip between “not installed” and “running”. I’ve not looked at what was changed to fix that but maybe it could be linked?

    It’s more reliable to use this command on Ubuntu to see if NextDNS CLI is running or not:

    $ systemctl status nextdns

      Thanks, I found the post of where the code was updated to what I am seeing. 
       

      Seems like the error I am receiving was added intentionally but I don’t know why I am even receiving that. Is it just a false positive message or is it actually stopping and running. 
       

      Seems to be something with systemd, you think I should move to a base OS like freeBSD where systemd won’t be an issue?
