Livepatch is off

Asked by Raoul Sodogandji

Hello,

I need your help with fixing this problem.
I felt like someone attacked my network and deactivated my LivePatch and activate it on a virtual device so that it will stop working on mine. I only have one device so I don't understand what the message is about. I'm nervous and I need your help.
My account is associated with this email address i am sending you from. Can you please help?

Here the below message i get every time i try to activate my LivePatch.

Failed to enable Livepatch: cannot enable machine: this machine ID is already enabled with a different key or is non-unique. Either "sudo canonical-livepatch disable" on the other machine, or regenerate a unique /etc/machine-id on this machine with "sudo rm /etc/machine-id /var/lib/dbus/machine-id && sudo systemd-machine-id-setup" server response: machine id already registered: machine id already registered

Did you try
sudo rm /etc/machine-id /var/lib/dbus/machine-id && sudo systemd-machine-id-setup
as suggested in the error message?
