 raitobezarius | This is the remote builder system, right? Not the local system? Because you have clearly nixremote listed there so I am confused as to how you can get that error | 11:38:29 |
 Rutile (Commentator2.0) feel free to ping | i think i actually had that error too somewhen, but fixed it by just making the user trusted, which works in my case but very much shouldn't be the solution

 crop | yes i only have that user on the remote system. | 11:50:02 |
| crop | which user? and making it trusted by a setting that is not just changing the nix.conf to something like trusted-users = root nixremote ? | 11:51:27 |
| raitobezarius | it's already listed trusted user | 11:52:05 |
| crop | this is the error on the client side:
this derivation will be built:
/nix/store/73mm7rw8wcl5sm306sxxrflcs8rxcgha-foo.drv
building '/nix/store/73mm7rw8wcl5sm306sxxrflcs8rxcgha-foo.drv' on 'ssh://nixremote@silent'...
error: cannot open connection to remote store 'daemon': error: reading from file: Connection reset by peer
error: unexpected end-of-file
| 11:53:16 |
| crop | i found the problem the nixremote user was in the nixbld group ... and somehow this broke stuff ... i am currious why this is the case. | 11:58:03 |
 zitrone | i added a comment to the relevant issue in the lix bugtracker | 11:59:26 |

 aloisw | Ah right this is builder chown, I confused it with the one after failed builds. I think your analysis is correct and indeed that's another failure mode of auto-allocate-uids. | 12:06:26 |
| raitobezarius | oh that's very VERY spicy | 12:55:38 |
| raitobezarius | can you open an issue with that? | 12:55:43 |

systemctl cat nix-daemon` show? | 14:47:37 |
| raitobezarius | you have a large enough open files limit but you are running a very old lix which is not supported anymore, i think you should try to update your system via NIX_REMOTE=local to latest stable | 14:48:45 |
| Aijokey | https://github.com/Aijokey/nix_configs/blob/main/configuration.nix | 14:50:15 |
| raitobezarius | perhaps, your channel is old? | 14:50:49 |
| raitobezarius | you seem to be using a 24.11 or 25.05 channel I'd say | 14:50:56 |
 hexa | it's 25.05 | 14:50:58 |
| Aijokey | Redacted or Malformed Event | 14:51:27 |

| raitobezarius | did you run nix-channel --update ? | 14:52:15 |
| hexa | in nixos-25.11 lixPackages.stable.lix is 2.93.3 | 14:52:29 |
| Aijokey | yes | 14:52:46 |
| raitobezarius | so i guess all that's left is to run NIX_REMOTE=local nixos-rebuild switch now | 14:53:02 |
| Aijokey | ❯ NIX_REMOTE=local nixos-rebuild switch now

| Aijokey | I have lock that not fixing by reloading | 14:56:47 |
| raitobezarius | ah so you have a lock that stuck | 14:57:03 |
