How to autostart? #217

Open waleedqq opened 5 years ago

waleedqq commented 5 years ago

Trying to run this on startup but can't get it working. If I run the command openpyn au -t 10 --p2p or --country-code au --max-load 70 --top-servers 10 --pings 3 --p2p I connect to the VPN and can confirm this using "curl http://ipinfo.io/ip" (is there any other way?)

But when I run sudo systemctl enable openpyn a symbolic link was created the first time, but when I populate the openpyn.service with the parameters above and reboot my raspberry pi I am still not connected? Moreover if I run sudo systemctl start openpyn nothing happens, I do not connect to the VPN and I press cnrtl+C to cancel the operation

You've to use -d in order to update the systemd service

-d, --daemon Update and start Systemd service openpyn.service, running it as a background process, to check status "systemctl status openpyn",

Do you have tried it?

I rebooted the pi and issued another curl command and the IP had reset back to my default public IP....

Jorman commented 5 years ago

but you don't start it after sudo openpyn au -t 10 --p2p -d try sudo systemcts start openpyn

PS. do you have configured it with --init, before do all?

waleedqq commented 5 years ago

Yes I started the first time with --init, typing in my credentials but didn't know how to pass the default parameters through my formatting was not working.

When I try

sudo systemcts start openpyn the cursor goes to the next line without any prompt or other text. During that time there is no messages or errors and if I create a new session the IP does not change. I'm baffled at this issue lol.

maybe a status can indicate why dont start. If your system have journalctl you can see more log Use 2 session of putty and in one type journalctl -u openpyn.service -ef then in the other one try to start openpyn and in the 1st one you can see what happen I don't use a raspberry so maybe you've to adapt some command in order to work

waleedqq commented 5 years ago

That didn't work, no output from journalctl -u openpyn.service -ef

Is there anyway to check that the VPN is active other than checking my public IP address?

Jorman commented 5 years ago

you have to look at system log, search about your system, maybe you've only to install it

waleedqq commented 5 years ago

ok for a fresh install, how do I get it auto start? can you tell me that much?

Jorman commented 5 years ago

We need to understand why won't start, so log are needed. Without log I can't tell you so much

jotyGill commented 5 years ago

what version is this? check by running openpyn -v if it is not 2.7.5 upgrade by sudo python3 -m pip install openpyn --upgrade re initialise sudo openpyn --init try connecting openpyn au . kill it. then sudo openpyn au -d

paste logs cat /var/log/openpyn/openpyn.log cat /var/log/openpyn/openpyn-notifications.log

waleedqq commented 5 years ago

Reset the Pi and Followed your instructions exactly. I am running 2.7.5. Any help would be appreciated :)
