Hello everyone. New user setting up a Linux mini pc, have not used a terminal window in 30 years. I'm not sure I understand the Linux directory system either. Is ComputerName the root, or is it Home?
During setup for some reason the indiwebmanager.service file was not created. A friend sent me a copy of his, and I opened the file, replaced his username with mine, saved. So far so good.
I can't use the Mint GUI to drag and drop the file into the usr/bin directory. Somehow I do not have permission on my own computer!
So I tried using the mv command in Terminal to get the file from the Downloads folder like this:
sudo mv indiwebmanager.service usr/bin
It did not work. Very frustrating not be able to do a simple file move, what is the secret?
If you are in the 'Downloads' directory, to specify the destination you need an absolute file path
sudo mv indiwebmanager.service /usr/bin
-but- 'service' files usually live in
/etc/systemd/system/indiwebmanager.service
So it would be
sudo mv indiwebmanager.service /etc/systemd/system
