62 | - Check daemon's status: | ||
42 | ```sh | 63 | ```sh |
43 | sudo service tox-bootstrapd start | 64 | sudo systemctl status tox-bootstrapd.service |
44 | ``` | 65 | ``` |
45 | 66 | ||
46 | Verify it's running: | 67 | - Check the log for errors: |
47 | ```sh | 68 | ```sh |
48 | sudo service tox-bootstrapd status | 69 | sudo grep "tox-bootstrapd" /var/log/syslog |
70 | # or | ||
71 | sudo journalctl --pager-end | ||
72 | # or | ||
73 | sudo journalctl -f _SYSTEMD_UNIT=tox-bootstrapd.service | ||
49 | ``` | 74 | ``` |
50 | 75 | ||
51 | Get your public key and check that the daemon initialized correctly: | 76 | - Make sure tox-bootstrapd user has write permission for keys and pid files. |
77 | |||
78 | - Make sure tox-bootstrapd has read permission for the config file. | ||
79 | |||
80 | - Make sure tox-bootstrapd location matches its path in tox-bootstrapd.service file. | ||
