I installed Snap.
When I run the commands, snap install --classic certbot or snap install core; sudo snap refresh core , I am getting the following error
error: cannot communicate with server: Post "http://localhost/v2/snaps/certbot": dial unix /run/snapd.socket: connect: connection refused
Any ideas how to fix?
Thanks
Do I need to enable SELinux for it to work?
I think snap runs as a daemon. Is snap "started"?
@Osiris No. It is having an error starting. It shows the following status on command, systemctl status snapd

I'm afraid I don't know how to debug snap itself, as I don't run it on my Gentoo systems (snap requires systemd while Gentoo by default uses OpenRC, so I cannot install snap even if I wanted to).
You might ask about that on the Snapcraft snap forums. I run certbot with snap but do not know how to debug snap.
