right, so it's not looking into /root/.config but in /.config. What do you get with grep ExecStart /lib/systemd/system/serialoscd.service ?

giuliomoro What do you get with grep ExecStart /lib/systemd/system/serialoscd.service ?

Can you try this again?

jonnybela

ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/serialoscd

giuliomoro

Guess you missed this:

infinitedigits use it:

ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/serialoscd -c ~/.config/serialosc/

jonnybela

Not quite sure what you mean

typing grep ExecStart /lib/systemd/system/serialoscd.service
only returns
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/serialoscd

i.e .it doesn't return -c/.config/serialosc

giuliomoro

you need to edit /lib/systemd/system/serialoscd.service and replace

ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/serialoscd

with

ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/serialoscd -c ~/.config/serialosc/

then do systemctl daemon-reload; systemctl restart serialoscd and it should work

jonnybela

mmm, same errors unfortunately

jonnybela

returns
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/serialoscd -c ~/.config/serialosc/

giuliomoro

And show the new log?

jonnybela

referring to this ?

giuliomoro

ok, that's a different log: the path is being picked up and now it fails with ~/.config/serialosc/. That's progress.

What do you get with

ls -l ~/.config/serialosc/

jonnybela

total 0

Try to edit /lib/systemd/system/serialoscd.service and replace

ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/serialoscd -c ~/.config/serialosc/

with

ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/serialoscd -c /root/.config/serialosc

(i.e.: replace ~ with /root and remove the trailing slash)

then do systemctl daemon-reload; systemctl restart serialoscd

jonnybela

Success! I see the written m000xxx.conf file now and it always runs on and picks up a fixed port number

Thank you so much for helping with that! Im only just starting to use linux so really appreciate your help

giuliomoro

Weird that ~ reportedly worked above... good things work now for you.
