I just install the filebeat port v6.8.7 on pfSense 2.4.5 box (freeBSD 13). After that I want to start filebeat service with
service start filebeat
but it throw error:
start does not exist in /etc/rc.d or the local startup
directories (/usr/local/etc/rc.d), or is not executable
Anyone know hot to make this file work/make filebeat work please share with me the solution. I'm new to freeBSD Thanks & Regards
The service command requires that the filebeat service installed a rc script to be able to start anything. The fist thing I notice is that your syntax is wrong - you need the service name before the command.
service filebeat start
This is why you get the error that start does not exist.
If you get a similar error with service filebeat start then examine the contents of the folder /usr/local/etc/rc.d. The port should have installed a script at that location.
If the port have not made a service/rc script for you - then you can do it yourself. See...
