NocoDB on Truenas

[hocus]

Hi, I am install NocoDB in TrueNAS jail by this instruction: https://gist.github.com/Zamana/e9281d736f9e9ce5882c6f4b140a590e but then i want start NocoDB with command: "service start nocodb" I get No such directory or file. But then I push command: "cd /usr/local/share/nocodb/nocodb-seed && npm start" NocoDB starts.
Can give advice why and what I should do?

The syntax is service nocodb start, not service start nocodb.

Yes, I use:

root@nocodb:~ #
root@nocodb:~ # service nocodb start
env: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/nocodb: No such file or directory
root@nocodb:~ #

I made mistake in this post.

You need to create that script as documented in step 7 of the instructions you linked.

This script created at /mnt/xxx/iocage/jails/nocodb/root/usr/local/etc/rc.d and set permission: chmod +x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/nocodb

Please post the output of ls -l /usr/local/etc/rc.d inside your jail.

Next: head /usr/local/etc/rc.d/nocodb

That looks all fine. So something in that script does not work as intended. One of the best ways to debug shell scripts is this:
sh -x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/nocodb start

The last couple of lines of the output will probably be sufficient to spot the problem.

I get:

Code:

root@nocodb:~ # sh -x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/nocodb start
+ $'\r'
: not foundetc/rc.d/nocodb:
+ $'\r'
: not foundetc/rc.d/nocodb:
+ . $'/etc/rc.subr\r'
: No such file or directory
root@nocodb:~ #

You probably edited the file on Windows and created a superfluous carriage return character at the end of each line. You need to use one of the Unix editors while logged in via an SSH terminal window, then paste the file into that and save.

If you don't know/like vi, there's the ee ("easy editor") or you could pkg install nano and use that.

Wow. Its work... I think much easier create on windows and copy via FTP... Thanks :)

I think much easier create on windows and copy via FTP.

If you want to do that, you need to use an editor that supports Unix line endings. Notepad doesn't. Notepad++ and VSCode do.

Or use ASCII mode for your FTP transfer - that will convert on the fly. These protocols are really old ...
