Subject: [Shorewall-users] error - The firewall will not be started / stopped
the unless it is configured
People, good morning.
Could you help me?
I installed Debian after Jessie and configure shorewall is giving the error
below.
Already do not know what to do.
Thank you

From the Debian SysV init script:

echo "The firewall won't be started/stopped unless it is configured"
if [ "$1" != "stop" ]
then
echo ""

# check if shorewall is configured or not
if [ -f "${SYSCONFDIR}/shorewall" ]
then
. ${SYSCONFDIR}/shorewall
SRWL_OPTS="$SRWL_OPTS $OPTIONS"
if [ "$startup" != "1" ]
then
not_configured
fi
else
not_configured
fi
The Debian /usr/share/Shorewall/shorewallrc file sets
SYSCONFDIR=/etc/default
So the message indicates that either /etc/default/shorewall
does not exist (unlikely), or that you have failed to set
startup=1 in that file.
