23.7 Legacy Series / [SOLVED] Can't seem to get netdata to start on boot
« on: September 09, 2023, 02:09:02 pm »
Hi,
I've installed netdata and followed the on screen instructions but they do not seem to work.
I've tried things in other posts to no avail, but they were for versions older than 23.7.3.
I've also set netdata_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf.d/netdata and that results in it starting but it does not survive a reboot.
I'm not quite sure what other info I can give that will help you help me but here's some output with the instructions I've followed,
Thank you,
Jiffy

Code: [Select]
Quick start for local-only use:
1. sysrc netdata_enable="YES"
2. service netdata start
3. Go to http://localhost:19999/
4. <Optional> Connect to Netdata Cloud using the netdata-claim.sh script:
https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/agent/claim#claiming-script
# sysrc netdata_enable="YES"
netdata_enable: -> YES
# service netdata start
Cannot 'start' netdata. Set netdata_enable to YES in /etc/rc.conf or use 'onestart' instead of 'start'.
# vi /etc/rc.conf.d/netdata
# service netdata start
Starting netdata.
# service netdata status
netdata is running as pid 65602 65766.
Thank you,
Jiffy
