I've installed e2guardian several times on different computers without having problems. Now there's a problem an I can't find the reason. The problem ist relatet to sslmitm. When I switch it off there's no error message. When it is switched on:


sudo service e2guardian restart
Job for e2guardian.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status e2guardian.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

I've checked all settings mentioned in notes/ssl_mitm. I've redone all SSL-certificates.


Has anyone an idea?

e2guardian can't read your private key

Check deamon user and change the file rights

It was a little mistake in the file name. Thanks for your help.
