> Its not working , and modt keep getting errors when i run commend "systemctl status"

I cannot reproduce this. What was the exact error?

Every Ubuntu Desktop system by default has /etc/update-motd.d/50-motd-news and /lib/systemd/system/motd-news.timer installed, but does not have /etc/default/motd-news so it is disabled by default, and no one is reporting problems with units being in an error state.

I have tested in an Ubuntu 22.04 lxd container, which also has /etc/default/motd-news by default; changing it to ENABLED=0 and running 'systemctl start motd-news.timer' does not result in any error state. Nor does rebooting the system.
