Question
Ghost start and stop Ubuntu service command
- Posted April 8, 2014
At /var/www/ghost directory …
These do not work: sudo service ghost stop sudo service ghost start
These work: pkill node nohup npm start --production & npm start --production
Is additional config required for the first commands to be recognized? Thanks!

Ah got it. I was basing it on this post. <br> <br>https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-configure-and-maintain-ghost-from-the-command-line
As far as I know, ghost isn’t a service. You use node to run ghost so you would start/restart node. If you want to be able to use sudo service ghost start, etc., you’ll need to create a custom service.
