Hi Rajeev, try running charon in the foreground:
sudo /usr/local/libexec/ipsec/charon and check for error messages in the console window. Cheers Andreas On 11.05.2016 11:53, rajeev nohria wrote:
Andreas, It seems like Charon daemon is not running, When I run the charon command, it immediately stops it. Where can I find the charon log to see if there is any issue? rnohria@ubuntu:~$ sudo /usr/local/libexec/ipsec/charon& [1] 7272 rnohria@ubuntu:~$ [1]+ Stopped sudo /usr/local/libexec/ipsec/charon Thanks, Rajeev On Wed, May 11, 2016 at 2:55 AM, Andreas Steffen <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi Rajeev, can you check in the charon log if the vici plugin has been loaded? And do you see the charon daemon running in the process status (ps aux | grep charon)?
