I cannot get a configuration in the home directory to work. All of these dont work with a configuration.nix in home/nixos while the working directory is the normal default startup directory of home/nixos:

  • sudo nixos-rebuild switch --upgrade-all -I nixos-config=configuration.nix
  • sudo nixos-rebuild switch --upgrade-all -I nixos-config=home/nixos/configuration.nix
  • sudo nixos-rebuild switch --upgrade-all -I nixos-config=/home/nixos/configuration.nix
  • sudo nixos-rebuild switch --upgrade-all -I nixos-config=~/configuration.nix

sudo nixos-rebuild switch --upgrade-all works though but targets /etc/nixos/configuration.nix

@balanced_design:matrix.orgbalanced_designThats the error for sudo nixos-rebuild switch --upgrade-all -I nixos-config=/home/nixos/configuration.nix11:05:45
@k900:0upti.meK900Yeah the issue is that your config is wrong11:05:54
@balanced_design:matrix.orgbalanced_designI guess Ill give the error for each11:05:55
@k900:0upti.meK900You're trying to import nixos-wsl both the channels way and the flakes way11:06:07
@k900:0upti.meK900And you need to decide which one you're using11:06:13
@k900:0upti.meK900You can't have both11:06:18
@balanced_design:matrix.orgbalanced_designThe configuration.nix is the default starting one with some comments?11:06:35
@k900:0upti.meK900It's not11:06:40
@k900:0upti.meK900 nixos-wsl.nixosModules.default is something you added 11:06:47
@k900:0upti.meK900Remove that11:06:51
@balanced_design:matrix.orgbalanced_designOk wow your right, I thought I put the configuration bad to my copy of the starting one11:08:30
@balanced_design:matrix.orgbalanced_design* Ok wow your right, I thought I put the configuration back to my copy of the starting one11:09:06
@balanced_design:matrix.orgbalanced_designSorry. Thank you so much11:09:42
@balanced_design:matrix.orgbalanced_designI guess if I didnt have the comments I would have noticed I forgot to remove that line11:10:07

@k900:0upti.meK900 They're trying to ship 6.6 again 02:10:28
@nzbr:nzbr.denzbr (they/it)They also added a mount at /run/user, so we'll need to watch if that breaks again11:14:11
