I might be reading this wrong, but the "ExecStart" command is a shell script
which basically says "if the $START_DAEMON variable does not equal 'true', >>> then echo 'aborted' and stop". Given you get sh printing the word 'aborted',
I think you're reading that branch.
Did you set "START_DAEMON=true" in /etc/default/fwlogwatch or similar?
there is no such stuff in the confs...
I reply to you on debian-user-french yesterday
fwlogwatch.service use /lib/systemd/system/fwlogwatch.service
which use conf file /etc/default/fwlogwatch
and if START_DAEMON is not "true" it does exit 1
So you just need to put in /etc/default/fwlogwatch
START_DAEMON='true'
Did you check the right file /etc/default/fwlogwatch ? What version do
you have ? Provide us :
dpkg -l fwlogwatch
~/Bureau$ dpkg -l fwlogwatch

ii fwlogwatch 1.4-4 amd64 Firewall log analyzer
apt says it it upto date.
here is what the cron daily conf says for it :
[..]
as said, /etc/fwlogwatch.config is all commented out except for the pid
file.
I don't know where you find "/etc/fwlogwatch.config"
sorry, mistaping ;) it's in '/etc/fwlogwatch/fwlogwatch.config'
in this script I found :
CONFIG=/etc/default/fwlogwatch
oups, the only place I'vee not checked... you're right it was there at
false, dunno why... changed it for 'true'.
and still crashing...
looking at the 'systemctl --failed' log it appears that it lacks the '/var/log/messages' directory, another thing that has not been created
at installation of fwlogwatch...
IMHO that should be corrected in the installer...
BTW, now its up and running. :) let's see if I get messages from it ^^)
Thanks everyone :)
