Re: [Nfsen-discuss] installation without action

hello Peter
i have one step more, but far away a solution.
root# perl ./install.pl etc/nfsen.conf
Setup NfSen:
Version: 1.2.4: $Id: install.pl 49 2006-02-27 14:35:02Z peter $
Perl to use: [/usr/bin/perl]
NFSEN does not want to run as root!
now /usr/local/nfsen is created, but empty
/var/nfsen is not created. even, if i create manually
nothing happens.
if i change uid to webnoby, which is the user for
the http-task, it askes for root:
webnoby> perl ./install.pl etc/nfsen.conf
nfsen setup wants to run as root
below my etc/nfsen.conf, maybe something wrong
hmmm....
best regards
hans

# Configuration of NfSen:
# Set all the values to fit your NfSen setup and run the 'install.pl'
# script from the nfsen distribution directory.
#
# You should not need to changes anything after NfSen is installed,
# besides the NfSen plugins at the bottom.
# When you make any changes in the plugins section, run 'nfsen reload'
# to make sure nfsen-run gets notified about your plugins.
#
# Do not change any other settings after NfSen is installed.
# otherwise you must rerun the install.pl script.
#
# The syntax must conform to Perl syntax.
