Posted by Juan Carlos on 05/12/17 05:50 PM
I installed OpenACS using the following instructions:
https://openacs.org/xowiki/ubuntu

Now im trying to create an instance of the server using this instructions: https://openacs.org/doc/install-openacs-keepalive

But I can't find this directory

/var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/etc/daemontools/run

Hi Juan,

Since you already ran the install-ns scripts[1], another method of controlling the server should already be installed.

What results do you get from typing:

status 5-9

If result is '5-9 start/running, process <some number>' then nsd is already running.

If result is 'status: Unknown job: 5-9' then nsd might not be installed, or has another service name provided by the install-ns.sh and install-oacs.sh scripts.

If result is '5-9 stop/waiting', then openacs can be started with:

sudo start 5-9

Its not working. I used status 5-9. And it showed me this
Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused

Sorry, you might need to type 'sudo' before it:

sudo status 5-9

Looks like you're advancing via the other thread, so won't pursue this one any further.

Note for anyone trying to install ubuntu via ubuntu's package system:
