[RESOLVED] Permission denied on serposcope.pid

Hi,

I cannot start the serposcope service, see the error message :

service serposcope start
Starting : serposcope... start-stop-daemon: unable to open pidfile '/var/run/serposcope.pid' for writing (Permission denied)
- Failure

I don't find how I can give rights.
Can you help me ?

_ OS (linux/windows/macosx...) : ubuntu 14.04

_ serposcope version : 2.0.0

_ java version : java version "1.8.0_66"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_66-b17)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.66-b17, mixed mode)

Thank you ;-)

hello, you need to start the service as root.

sudo service serposcope start

Thanks for your perfect answer, it works !

You might update the french installation webpage : https://serposcope.serphacker.com/fr/doc/install.html
update this : Sur Linux, utilisez la commande service serposcope start|stop|restart|status.
to this :        Sur Linux, utilisez la commande sudo service serposcope start|stop|restart|status.
