slinger.service file #7

Closed Deltapie7 closed 1 year ago

Deltapie7 commented 1 year ago

Couldn't get the python script to auto run on startup... edited the slinger.service file to look like below.

Using a raspberrypi PRETTY_NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch)" NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux" VERSION_ID="9" VERSION="9 (stretch)" VERSION_CODENAME=stretch ID=raspbian ID_LIKE=debian

Change made = ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 -u /home/slingbox/slingbox_server.py From = ExecStart=/usr/bin/python -u slingbox_server.py

All started to work for me after that. Not sure if it's a good fix or not, but wanted to tell you about what I did to get it to start working.

Thanks!

I’m glad you got it going. It’s important to get the service started in the same folder as the code because the software assumes the config.ini and keys.dat are in the same folder.

Type=idle

User=slingbox

WorkingDirectory=/home/slingbox

StandardOutput=append:/tmp/sling.log

StandardError=append:/tmp/sling.log

ExecStart=/usr/bin/python -u slingbox_server.py

Restart=always

So this “should” have worked. Without having to put the full path in the exec start. Maybe it’s a permissions issue.
