Error starting deamon traccar

flop9 years ago

Hi,

I get next error when starting the deamon.

sudo /opt/traccar/bin/traccar start
Starting traccar...
/opt/traccar/bin/./wrapper: 1: /opt/traccar/bin/./wrapper: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
Waiting for traccar..................
WARNING: traccar may have failed to start.

I'am running a vps with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64bit installed.

Who can help to solve this?

Regards,

Rob

What version of Traccar are you using? Also, what shell? It looks like a problem with Java Service Wrapper script.

Hi Anton,

Thanks for your reply. Do you have minute to look at my vps and install traccar by teamviewer?
Will be very appreciated. Sorry for my double post on the forum and github.

Regards,

Rob

You need to check wrapper.log file for error message.

It looks like you don't have Java installed or path for Java is not set up correctly.

Ok. That helped! Now install is OK.


Thank you very much.

Ubuntu 12 is pretty old version. Also, what's the architecture of the system?


burnbird8 years ago
ohh, there is x64 cpu BUT x86 Ubuntu12 ))) I don't know why our admin made such strange config.
I will create a new instance with 'true' x64
thanks a lot for pushing me to the right way


burnbird8 years ago
everything is OK. sorry )
the problem was in installing x64 version on the x32 ubuntu.
