If BitNinja can not start, but it shows as another instance is running, it is because of a former pid file.
Solution
- Just echo an empty string to the file.
echo "" > /var/lib/bitninja/blue.pid
. - Try to start the BitNinja agent with
service bitninja start
command
If that does not work for some reason:
- Delete the whole file with the following command
rm /var/lib/bitninja/blue.pid -y
- And then restart BitNinja with the
service bitninja restart
command
