Instructions for Debian
The following commands are to be executed as root:
1. In `tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon` file change:
- `CFG` to where your config file (`conf`) will be; read rights required
- `DAEMON` to point to the executable
- `PIDFILE` to point to a pid file daemon would have rights to create
2. Go over everything in `conf`. Make sure `pid_file_path` matches `PIDFILE` from `tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon`
3. Execute: `mv tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon /etc/init.d/tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon`
4. Give the right permissions to this file: `chmod 755 /etc/init.d/tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon`
5. Execute: `update-rc.d tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon defaults`
6. Start the service: `service tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon start`
7. Verify that the service is running: `service tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon status`
You can see daemon's log with `grep "tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon" /var/log/syslog`
Troubleshooting:
1. Check the log for errors with `grep "tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon" /var/log/syslog`
2. Check that paths in the beginning of `/etc/init.d/tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon` are valid
3. Make sure that `PIDFILE` from `/etc/init.d/tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon` matches with the `pid_file_path` from `conf`
4. Make sure you have write premmision to keys and pid files
5. Make sure you have read premission to config file
