Re: [SOLVED] Setting static IP

What file is this and it's location?  Also are you using a network manager?

Is that a typo in the mystery configuration file or is that a transcription error?

How have you enabled the relevant networking services? Have you ensured that only a single networking service is enabled and running? Use 'systemctl status' to see an overview of running services.

How are you determining this? Please post verbatim terminal output rather than vague descriptive (and potentially incorrect) summaries.

It is in my /etc/systemd/network/30-wireless network file. All of my config is in there.

I used systemd-networkd to do that.

I used systemctl network status -a to determine that.

Im not using any network managers i just used systemd-networkd to enable my iternet connection. And if i use dynamic ip via typing DHCP=yes into that config file instead of static one i got my succesfull connection. But the main point is this gonna be my mini server computer so i need a static ip with proper port forwarding settings.

Re: [SOLVED] Setting static IP

Assuming that you provided correct information, which I doubt, since your last statement is a proof against that, I see at least two problems:
1) The keyword "Address" (contains two ds in English) is misspelled as @Head_on_a_Stick pointed out.
2) Your config file is missing the suffix ".network". This, however, is disproved by your statement, that just changing its content to a DHCP configuration works, so you provided us with a wrong / incomplete filename above.

I used systemctl network status -a to determine that.

I assume you want to keep that output a secret to make us helping you more difficult?
