I followed all the steps like instructed. I filled up the config. file with my username and password and saved it. When i try to start pulseway without "sudo" comand it shows:

==== AUTHENTICATING FOR org.freedesktop.systemd1.manage-unit-files ===
Authentication is required to manage system service or unit files.
Authenticating as: root
Password:

I tried my pi account password, my pulseway password and just leaving the password empty. After that i got:

==== AUTHENTICATION FAILED ===
Failed to enable unit: Access

 

So i tried to start pulseway with "sudo" and it seems like nothing happend.
When i checked the logs i got:

I'm 100% sure that i have put my username and password correctly (Password got encrypted in the config file) The only thing i can think of is the fact that my password uses a polish symbol in it and that is creating problems.
 

I'm not very well-versed linux user so i'm just lost here. Can someone help?

 

Hi,

You don't need to fill the config.xml with username/password. As is specified at the end of the installation, in order to register the agent please run the:

pulseway-registration

as root. This will register the agent and update the config.xml file for you.

I got: An error encountered while processing the request. Please check the logs.
 

Hi @matifudokan,

The error is related to config.xml. If you will leave config.xml file intact and use that executable pulseway-registration to register your system, then you will not receive that error.

Jan 07 07:47:36 Serwer pulseway[5538]: Received request Stop monitoring service 'Invalid username and/or password (295).'

So i deleted everything i have put into config.xml but when i try to registrate it goes like this:

pi@Serwer:~ $ sudo pulseway-registration

Would you like to register or unregister the system?

Hi @matifudokan,

Please check the system log to see what error is reported there or send it to us.

This?

Please delete the file /etc/pulseway/config.xml

rm /etc/pulseway/config.xml

And then run pulseway-registration

 

I have deleted the config.xml  and got tha same "An error encountered while processing the request. Please check the logs.". After checking the status i got this:

Hi @matifudokan,

Please verify that you can access the Pulseway server from that system:

At this point i have no idea what this is but i guess i have a connection?

I just checked the logs

pi@Serwer:~ $ systemctl status pulseway.service
● pulseway.service - Remotely Monitor and Control IT Systems

So i tried to open the config.xml with nano and it wanted to create a new file. So i guess the config file isn't there even after i re-installed pulseway?
