Ubuntu - configuration not working /etc/init, but does manually

[John Fly]

When I manually start eventstore by the command line with the --config set to my config file it works as expected with my DB and LOG set correctly

if I use sudo start event-store, the log shows the same config file (set by ENV) but the values are not used (they do not show in the log)

Any ideas on my issue?

What information can I supply to help hunt this down?

etc/init/event-store.conf

description "Event Store"

start on (filesystem and net-device-up eth0)

stop on runlevel [!2345]

The environment for the `sudo` user is different to your local user, no?

[John Fly]

True, but the confusing item here (to me)..

No matter which way the application is run, the config file is listed.

Only the sudo way seems to apply the settings in the file.

I'll check logs and check manually running as my event store user
