Your root user is not in the sudoers file (/etc/sudoers). This file controle who has the permission to run commands with sudo. Create a custom template:

Code: [Select]

mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/sudoers
vim /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/sudoers/10root
and put this into it:

Code: [Select]

root    ALL=(ALL) ALL
then expand the templates:

Code: [Select]

expand-template /etc/sudoers
and try to restart your service
