System has not been booted with systemd as init system (PID 1). Can't operate.
You ran systemctl inside an environment without systemd as PID 1 — a Docker container or older WSL.
Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory (systemctl --user / timedatectl)
The command needs the D-Bus/systemd bus, which isn’t available in this session — common over su, sudo -u, cron, containers or WSL.
SELinux is preventing ... / avc: denied { read } for pid=... (permission denied despite correct permissions)
SELinux blocked the access — file permissions look fine, but the file’s security context or a boolean doesn’t allow the service t…
Context.startForegroundService() did not then call Service.startForeground() / ForegroundServiceStartNotAllowedException
A foreground service didn’t call startForeground() within a few seconds, or the app tried to start one from the background where…
Job for nginx.service failed because the control process exited with error code
systemd tried to start the service, but its start command failed. The real reason is in the service’s status/journal.
exec /docker-entrypoint.sh: no such file or directory (CRLF line endings / missing interpreter)

Windows Update error 0x80070422 (service is disabled)

Failed to start x.service: Unit x.service not found

Docker container keeps restarting (Restarting (1) x seconds ago)
The container crashes on start and its restart policy (always/unless-stopped/on-failure) starts it again in a loop.
spec.ports[0].nodePort: Invalid value: 80: provided port is not in the valid range. The range of valid ports is 30000-32767

ECS task stopped: CannotPullContainerError: pull image manifest has been retried ... / ref pull has been retried
The ECS task couldn’t pull its image — no network route to the registry, missing ECR permissions, or a wrong image tag.
Docker container exits immediately (Exited (0) / Exited (1) right after start)
The container started and its main process finished at once, so the container stopped — Docker containers only live as long as PI…
Azure Container Registry: unauthorized: authentication required, visit https://aka.ms/acr/authorization (AKS ErrImagePull 401)
Pulling/pushing to ACR wasn’t authenticated — Docker not logged in, or AKS/App Service lacks AcrPull on the registry.

passwd couldn’t update the password — the root filesystem is read-only, /etc/shadow has wrong permissions/attributes, or a PAM ru…

Linux: Permission denied
Your user (or the service user) lacks read/write/execute permission on a file, directory or one of its parents.
Webhook signature verification failed (Stripe, Razorpay, GitHub…)
Your endpoint computed a different HMAC signature than the one the provider sent, so the webhook is rejected.
user is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.
Your account isn’t allowed to use sudo.
Service has no endpoints (no endpoints available for service / Endpoints: <none>)
The Service’s selector matches no ready pods, so traffic to it is refused or returns 503.
java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial ... requires android.permission.X
The app called an API that needs a permission it hasn’t declared or the user hasn’t granted at runtime.
Targeting S+ (version 31 and above) requires that one of FLAG_IMMUTABLE or FLAG_MUTABLE be specified when creating a PendingIntent
Apps targeting Android 12+ must declare PendingIntent mutability; missing flags crash.
nginx: [emerg] bind() to 0.0.0.0:80 failed (98: Address already in use)

The container tried to run a binary built for a different CPU architecture (arm64 vs amd64) — or a script with a broken shebang /…
