[Solved] Failed to auto start signalk-server on boot

[volksbar]

Hello,

I installed signalk via the command line instruction on signalk's github repo. However, I need to manually start "signalk-server" from the terminal in order to access the localhost signalk interface.

I would like to auto start the signalk-server on boot. I tried:

sudo systemctl enable signalk.service
sudo systemctl enable signalk.socket


But it did not auto start and the error is:

● signalk.service
    Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/signalk.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
    Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Fri 2023-11-24 00:40:02 CET; 5min ago
TriggeredBy: ● signalk.socket

When I run signal-server-setup, I got:
"pi@openplotter:~ $ sudo signalk-server-setup
/usr/bin/env: ‘node’: No such file or directory"

But the node was installed:
"
pi@openplotter:~ $ node -v
v21.2.0
pi@openplotter:~ $ which node
/home/pi/.config/nvm/versions/node/v21.2.0/bin/node
"

Any ideas? Any hints to debug is helpful. Many thanks!
