Mailing List Archive: Hitch fails to start.

I have been trying unsuccessfully to get hitch to run on a Debian 10
based VPS.

? hitch.service - Hitch TLS unwrapping daemon
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/hitch.service; enabled; vendor
preset: enabled)
   Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Fri 2022-12-09 12:51:44

Dec 09 12:51:44 racknerd-395538 systemd[1]: Failed to start Hitch TLS

The packages are being pulled from the repository
https://packagecloud.io/varnishcache/varnish60lts/ubuntu trusty main

Is there anything that can be done to get hitch working?

Hi Jim,

Could you share your hitch.conf, as well as the output of "systemctl cat
hitch", please?
