**WARNING**

This just uses the development server for testing purposes. For production environments you should probably go with a more robust solution, like [gunicorn](web-server/Running-PowerDNS-Admin-with-Systemd,-Gunicorn--and--Nginx.md) or a WSGI server.

### Following example shows a systemd unit file that can run PowerDNS-Admin
|
|
|
|
You shouldn't run PowerDNS-Admin as _root_, so let's start of with the user/group creation that will later run PowerDNS-Admin:
|
|
|
|
Create a new group for PowerDNS-Admin:
|
|
|
|
> sudo groupadd powerdnsadmin
|
|
|
|
Create a user for PowerDNS-Admin:
|
|
|
|
> sudo useradd --system -g powerdnsadmin powerdnsadmin
|
|
|
|
_`--system` creates a user without login-shell and password, suitable for running system services._
|
|
|
|
Create new systemd service file:
|
|
|
|
> sudo vim /etc/systemd/system/powerdns-admin.service
|
|
|
|
General example:
|
|
```
|
|
[Unit]
|
|
Description=PowerDNS-Admin
|
|
After=network.target
|
|
|
|
[Service]
|
|
Type=simple
|
|
User=powerdnsadmin
|
|
Group=powerdnsadmin
|
|
ExecStart=/opt/web/powerdns-admin/flask/bin/python ./run.py
|
|
WorkingDirectory=/opt/web/powerdns-admin
|
|
Restart=always
|
|
|
|
[Install]
|
|
WantedBy=multi-user.target
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Debian example:
|
|
```
|
|
[Unit]
|
|
Description=PowerDNS-Admin
|
|
After=network.target
|
|
|
|
[Service]
|
|
Type=simple
|
|
User=powerdnsadmin
|
|
Group=powerdnsadmin
|
|
Environment=PATH=/opt/web/powerdns-admin/flask/bin
|
|
ExecStart=/opt/web/powerdns-admin/flask/bin/python /opt/web/powerdns-admin/run.py
|
|
WorkingDirectory=/opt/web/powerdns-admin
|
|
Restart=always
|
|
|
|
[Install]
|
|
WantedBy=multi-user.target
|
|
```
|
|
Before starting the service, we need to make sure that the new user can work on the files in the PowerDNS-Admin folder:
|
|
> chown -R powerdnsadmin:powerdnsadmin /opt/web/powerdns-admin
|
|
|
|
After saving the file, we need to reload the systemd daemon:
|
|
> sudo systemctl daemon-reload
|
|
|
|
We can now try to start the service:
|
|
> sudo systemctl start powerdns-admin
|
|
|
|
If you would like to start PowerDNS-Admin automagically at startup enable the service:
|
|
> systemctl enable powerdns-admin
|
|
|
|
Should the service not be up by now, consult your syslog. Generally this will be a file permission issue, or python not finding it's modules. See the Debian unit example to see how you can use systemd in a python `virtualenv` |
