GUI Issue with graphical.target being inactive
 
I installed a basic CentOS7 server and later downloaded desktop software and am able to startx into it, but I would like to, if possible, to boot into graphical.target. When I run
Code:

systemctl list-units --type=target --all
graphical.target          loaded    inactive dead  Graphical Interface

Anyway to activate it and set the target to graphical? Thank you.

What is the output of
Code:

systemctl get-default
?

Multi-user.target

Try
Code:

systemctl isolate graphical.target
to switch from multiuser to graphical right now. And
Code:

systemctl set-default graphical.target
to boot to graphical mode by default.
