Hello,
Since I upgraded to the latest version of TDE, when I turn off my computer I often get this message :
"Job -c scope / stop running (min sec ) /"
Many times I have to wait a long time before the computer turns off. It's annoying when it's late and you want to sleep. Why this message when I shutdown the computer.
Thank you , cheers. André

Hello,
I don't receive any answer to my question above.
I would like to clarify that this problem occurs when I shutdown in the graphical mode of the TDE menu and not with the command "shutdown -h" in a console mode. Otherwise, I wouldn't have written my problem. above. Cheers, André

Hello.
In my subjective observation, the cause of this could be either arts or display manager (tdm). Personally, I always have problems with these components. Therefore, I have disabled TDM, and I turn off the computer after exiting the graphical environment.

To add a bit to the confusion: some GNOME apps delay shutting down for a considerable amount of time, e.g. "obs-studio" is such a candidate. The "do you really wanna qui?" dialog usally does not appear when shutting down, but the shutdown is delayed.

In KControl->TDE Components->Session Manager, enable 'Show logout status dialog'. Hopefully in the dialog you might be able to see the process stalling the shutdown.

this doesn't seem to be helpful and doesn't seem to be TDE related. Provide better information what exactly is hanging on shutdown. You can achieve this by pressing ESC or enable verbose (remove quite) at boot.
When we know what exactly hangs, one may come up with an idea.
Look here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1264468/shutdown-delay-a-stop-job-is-running... or here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=295529
and finally you may try this https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/vmn5ut/a_stop_job_is_runnin...
but it is always better to fix if possible, what is not working properly.

This problem is related to the TDE Logout menu. If I create an icon on the TDE desktop with this command "shutdown -h now", the computer shuts down very quickly without error messages.
what does this message mean ? : "Job -c scope / stop running (min sec ) /" The shutdown stop and many times I must wait a long time.

to me it looks incomplete. it usually looks like the attached (see https://askubuntu.com/questions/1264468/shutdown-delay-a-stop-job-is-running...)
and you have to know what is causing the issue. I have no idea what -c scope should be.
The TDM uses ACPI if I remember correctly, so it is not exactly the same as "shutdown ...."
I can also not say if it is really TDE or some other package.
but when you know what is hanging, then you can inspect it and solve it

This is just a wild guess, a shot in the dark; but I had something similar happening a couple of years ago. My memory is fuzzy, but I think it was when I was running Debian.
A process called rpcbind (I think that's correct) seemed to hang on indefinitely, and my system wouldn't shut down. Usually I shut down by command line, but sometimes I use the menu; now when I use the menu, I seem not to have any problems.
I don't know if this process was the cause, or only a symptom. I don't have more information, aside from what apt-cache search tells me about it:
rpcbind - converts RPC program numbers into universal addresses
This was, as I said, a few years ago, several reinstallations and unpgrade. I have since switched to Devuan, but don't know if it helped; I know only that I don't see it any more.

Try setting shutdown in the login manager
Where is "the login manager" (as the screenshot attached) ? I do'nt find it... Thanks. André

With Login Manager, this is a window to manage the login, (see the screen image). What is the difference between a clickable icon on the desktop, or by the bottom left icon of the tde-desktop taskbar ?

I don't understand your question.
I access the login manager from the TDE control center and the login manager is located in "System Administration".
The shutdown section here is set (I did not change anything) to Allow everybody localy, Command for Halt is /sbin/poweroff and command for renoot is /sbon/reboot.
The thread, however, speaks of shutting down.
I usually do this by a right-click on the Desktop, then "log out" and I get a choice of Log out, Shutdown, Restart, Freeze, Suspend, Hibernate, Hybrid hibernate and Cancel, which almost always works (I did not try Freeze, Suspend, Hibernate, Hybrid hibernate on this desktop computer; On laptops Suspend usually works, Hibernate not always).
My system is MX Linux (version 23, based on Debian Bookworm).

In the case of OP with poweroff there is a delay, but with shutdown there is no delay, so I suggested to try setting shutdown command instead of poweroff (or may be the script he uses to shut down)

Which OS do you use?
Failure (or delay) to shutdown from TDM has been a widespread problem here among my various installations on openSUSE, Fedora, Mageia, Debian & Ubuntu going back at least 6 months. Installations it happens on seem too random to discern any pattern of which do, which don't, much less why, and since it happens on shutdown, I not usually of any mind to pursue at least to record that it occurred on the affected installation itself so that with a fresh mind later I might investigate.
