Cannot reload udev rules

[kuxiade]

I configured the udev rules to the /etc/udev/rules.d folder to allow non-root users to access the device. When I run sudo udevadm control --reload to update the rules, I get an error that "Failed to send reload request: No such file or directory".

# reload rules
> sudo udevadm control --reload
Failed to send reload request: No such file or directory

What should I do to reload the rules?

if you get Failed to send reload request: No such file or directory that means your udev service is not running. Check with sudo service udev status before reloading, and if not running start it with sudo service udev start.

Seems to work now.

This command does not apply to Arch Linux.
