which electrum_server and electrum_rpc locates file to $USER/.local/bin/ directory service file fails otherwise.

I guess it depends on how you install electrumx. e.g. $ pip install . vs $ pip install --user .

ArmanTheParman commented 4 months ago

Oh, right. Maybe I'll add a comment to say that, so the user knows/learns, as I just did.

The instructions I read here didn't say to include "--user" as far as I recall. I'll dig more tomorrow.

sudo pip3 install . installs the binaries in /usr/local/bin

It could be because I was trying all sorts of solutions to get rocksdb installed with python (failed over and over). I'll do a clean up and try again.

You're absolutely right, but the instructions in readthedocs.io do not indicate 'sudo'. Without sudo, pip and pip3 installs to $HOME/.local/bin With sudo it installs to /usr/local/bin

I suggest either the documentation should be adjusted, or the service file should reflect the results of following the documentation.
