taler-exchange
--------------
-By default, the Taler exchange will start automatically when the system is booted.
-If you prefere to start it manually when you use it, change its configuration
-with:
-
- # dpkg-reconfigure -plow taler-exchange
+Note that the configuration installed in /etc/taler.conf is incomplete and
+that Debian cannot launch an exchange with this minimal template. You must
+setup the currency, denominations and bank account access details before
+launching the Taler exchange can possibly succeed.
In order to start, stop or restart manually the server, use:
- # /etc/init.d/taler-exchange
+ # systemctl start taler-exchange
+ # systemctl stop taler-exchange
+ # systemctl restart taler-exchange
+
+To permanently the exchange whenever the system boots, use:
+
+ # systemctl enable taler-exchange
-with the parameter start, stop or restart.
+None of these are done by the Debian package because we cannot provide the
+required complete configuration details.
