Package: matrix-synapse Version: 0.99.0-1~bpo9+3 Severity: normal It's extremely hard to understand what's wrong if the "Name of the server" was accidentally left blank during the installation process. Daemon just won't start. Not output will be produced. Moreover the exit status will be 0! The log file is absent.
# service matrix-synapse start && echo OK OK # /etc/init.d/matrix-synapse start && echo OK OK # invoke-rc.d matrix-synapse start && echo OK OK The only way to understand what's wrong is to run it directly: # python3 -m "synapse.app.homeserver" --config-path /etc/matrix-synapse/homeserver.yaml Missing mandatory `server_name` config option.
