Problem installing, not listening on port 9222 #275

Hi guys, I have a problem installing domain_exporter. I did install it using apt-get, and I see the package installed. I also added the job in my prometheus.yml. However, I see nothing is listening on port 9222. Also, the target is down in Prometheus. with connection refused. I also can't reach anything via the browser on port 9222. Am I missing something here, or did I make a mistake?

did you start the service? I'm not sure if the package you installed come with a systemd unit by default... but if it does, you probably need to enable/start it.

if it doesn't, you need to create the service manually or run the binary directly

Thanks, got it to work by creating a service. Seemed pretty straight forward to me a package comes with a service, but maybe it isn't in Linux world. Anyway, thx!
