Supernode failed to start

harryzcy commented 2 years ago

supernode can not start on Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS. I compiled from source from 3.0-stable branch.

When I try to run it using sudo supernode -p 1234 -v, it exit immediately with an exit code 0.

My supernode version:

Welcome to n2n v.3.0.0.r1044.6dac89f for Debian bullseye/sid

   basic usage:  supernode <config file> (see supernode.conf)

            or   supernode [optional parameters, at least one] 

 technically, all parameters are optional, but the supernode executable
 requires at least one parameter to run, .e.g. -v or -f, as otherwise this
 short help text is displayed

  -h    shows a quick reference including all available options
 --help gives a detailed parameter description
   man  files for n2n, edge, and superndode contain in-depth information

On Linux and without providing -f, it will usually run in the background. You'd probably see the supernode using ps or top then.

Please try to add -f to see it run in foreground.

Did you run the supernode as root?

Unfortunately, the 3.0-stable supernode fails and exits immediately if it is not run as root.

That solves it. Thank you!
