Tips on installing XO
-
@jasonnix Yes, that looks normal to me.
-
Hello @Danp,
I installed the XO, but when I usesudo service orchestra start
command, then I can't see the web interface and I must useyarn start
. Why?
The service is running:$ sudo service orchestra status β orchestra.service - LSB: forever-service startup script for orchestra Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/orchestra; generated) Active: active (exited) since Sat 2024-03-09 05:02:50 EST; 5s ago Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8) Process: 31543 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/orchestra start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) CPU: 24ms Mar 09 05:02:47 XO systemd[1]: Starting orchestra.service - LSB: forever-service startup script for orchestra... Mar 09 05:02:48 XO orchestra[31543]: Starting orchestra Mar 09 05:02:50 XO systemd[1]: Started orchestra.service - LSB: forever-service startup script for orchestra.
No systemd?
-
It could be a rights issue. What user name did you use when you performed the
forever-service install
? -
@Danp, I did the following command:
jason@XO:$ sudo forever-service install orchestra -r jason -s dist/cli.mjs
-
IDK. The fact that it shows "active (exited)" is problematic because I would have expected to see "active (running)".
Have you checked the logs for further information?

@Danp,

Also:
$ sudo cat /home/xo/.config/xo-server/config.z-auto.json cat: /home/xo/.config/xo-server/config.z-auto.json: No such file or directory
-
Again... seems like a rights issue. What changes did you make to the config.toml file? Also, did you see this statement in the documentation?
In this config file, you can change default ports (80 and 443) for xo-server. If you are running the server as a non-root user, you will need to set the port to 1024 or higher.
-
@Danp, I just did the following:
$ cd packages/xo-server $ mkdir -p ~/.config/xo-server $ cp sample.config.toml ~/.config/xo-server/config.toml
-
@jasonnix said in Tips on installing XO:
cat: /home/xo/.config/xo-server/config.z-auto.json: No such file or directory
It is trying to create the file, but can't due to the rights issue. You may want to start over and try installing as root to avoid these problems.
-
Hi @Danp,
I used sudo. The file is located at /root/.config/xo-server/config.z-auto.json. -
@jasonnix There are settings that need to be configured to run correctly under sudo. Did you make that?
-
@Danp, Not really. Which settings?
-
@jasonnix It is in the documentation at the very bottom.
-
Hi @Danp,
Do you mean this?
I did:# rm -rf node_modules # yarn # yarn build
Then:
# nano config.toml useSudo = true
After it:
# nano /etc/sudoers xo ALL=(root)NOPASSWD: /bin/mount, /bin/umount, /bin/findmnt
Then, I tried to install XO as a system service:

Finally:

Hello,
Any idea to solve this? I have to manually start XO with theforever start dist/cli.mjs
command and when I reboot the server, the service doesn't start automatically! -

This will make the Xen Orchestra service start automatically on each and every boot.

Hi @john-c,
I did:# systemctl enable orchestra.service orchestra.service is not a native service, redirecting to systemd-sysv-install. Executing: /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install enable orchestra
Then I rebooted the system and checked the service:
# systemctl status orchestra.service β orchestra.service - LSB: forever-service startup script for orchestra Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/orchestra; generated) Active: active (exited) since Wed 2024-03-27 08:10:55 EDT; 1min 11s ago Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8) Process: 514 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/orchestra start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) CPU: 30ms Mar 27 08:10:49 XO systemd[1]: Starting orchestra.service - LSB: forever-service startup script for orchestra...

Can't login to XO:

@jasonnix I think it's time you try and use an installation script. You're clearly having issues that are specific to you.
I'd just give up on this "I don't trust scripts" thing you have if you can't figure this process out, which is really straight-forwards.
-
You may want to try removing the service and then installing it again.

Hi @Danp,
How?
