The CumulusMX.runtimeconfig.json file is included in the zip, so not sure why your second install does not have it?

[dazza1223]

Hey mate
Yes it is in that folder and if I run it just with the command it works great

But running as a service it throwing this error

[mcrossley]

file access rights then?

[dazza1223]

Yep I've checked that and permissions

Why do you have the number 2 on the filename CumulusMX2.dll on your service file? Because it seems to cause the system to assume the number 2 also in CumulusMX2.runtimeconfig.json which of course does not exist.

[dazza1223]

Because I'm following the guide what Mark said someone posted about running 2 cmx on the same machine as a different services

AH! Good spot!

[SamiS]

So the correct way is to also rename the json, or not to rename the dll at the first place?

[freddie]

I seriously doubt you would need to rename DLLs. Perhaps the systemd service file.

[mcrossley]

Correct, just rename the service file. The DLLs should not be renamed.

[dazza1223]

I wish it was that easy just to re name the service file because I did and it still giving me the same error?

[freddie]

The service name has no bearing on this error message, so you must still have one of your renamed files present. Might be easier to reinstall both instances from the zip file.
