WARNING: Config file start not found

Initial install. Getting an error message "WARNING: Config file start
not found"

I made the start file as per the install instructions. Is there some
permission thing or something I'm missing? Google does not return any
relevant results. Running ubuntu 14.04

two@test::/etc/ntopng$ sudo touch /etc/ntopng/ntopng.start

two@test:/etc/ntopng$ ls -lah
total 20K
drwxrwxr-x   2 root root 4.0K Jan 18 17:06 .
drwxr-xr-x 127 root root 12K Jan 18 16:25 ..
-rw-rw-r--   1 root root 3.2K Jan 18 17:06 ntopng.conf
-rw-r--r--   1 root root    0 Jan 18 17:06 ntopng.start

two@test:/etc/ntopng$ sudo ntopng start
