MoveQuit Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 (edited) I've installed btsync on an Ubuntu 14.04 headless server following the Debian-based instructions here: http://help.getsync.com/hc/en-us/articles/207689576-Installing-Sync-on-Linux I have not yet created a btsync user, working within root at the moment. I tried to dpkg-reconfigure btsync but the only outcome of that command is that btsync starts: dpkg-reconfigure btsync No /usr/bin/btsync found running; none killed. Starting Bittorrent Sync This is what I currently have in /etc/btsync drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Feb 29 14:55 ./ drwxr-xr-x 111 root root 12288 Feb 29 14:26 ../ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 207 Feb 29 15:07 config.json -rwxrwxr-x 1 root root 222 Feb 23 08:01 init_user_config.sh* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 226 Feb 29 15:08 user_config.json This command has allowed me to connect to the GUI (because it's by default listening to 127.0.0.1), but it's a temporary fix. btsync --nodaemon --webui.listen 0.0.0.0:8888 I would like to figure out how to actually configure it correctly, what am I doing wrong? Thanks! Edited February 29, 2016 by MoveQuit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoveQuit Posted March 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 I didn't get this working, but I'm no longer going to be using Bittorrent Sync (much too slow), so the point is moot. Thanks anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 I wonder how you installed the package without creating btsync user? I looks like it's not registered. check with "sudo service btsync status" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
