cherokee-admin(1) - Linux man page
Name
cherokee-admin - Runs Cherokee's administrative interface
Synopsis
cherokee-admin [-d<DIR>] [-p<PORT>] [-C<FILE>] [-b] [-x] [-u] [-t]
Description
cherokee-admin runs the server for the administrative interface used to configure Cherokee. The interface itself will be available via your Web browser.
Options
cherokee-admin accepts the following options:
- -h, --help
- Shows brief usage information
- -V, --version
- Show version and exit
- -x, --debug
- Print the backend errors to the terminal where it is executing. If omited, this debug information is lost.
- -u, --unsecure
- Allows accessing cherokee-admin's interface without requiring the user to authenticate. This disables a security measure and is only meant to ease the development process. The usage of this parameter is strongly discouraged for regular users.
- -b[<IP>], --bind[=<IP>]
- By default cherokee-admin binds only to 127.0.0.1 (localhost), which means you can only connect to it from the same system. With this parameter you can specify the network address to listen to. If no IP is provided, it will bind to all interfaces.
- -d<DIR>, --appdir=<DIR>
- Uses a custom admin-interface path where the source files of cherokee-admin reside.
- -p<NUM>, --port=<NUM>
- Specifies an alternative port. By default, 9090.
- -t, --internal-unix
- By default, cherokee-admin uses TCP for internal communications. This parameter specifies that a Unix domain socket should be used instead. The default behavior is the safest one, so this parameter should rarely by used.
- -T<NUM>, --thread=<NUM>
- Specify the number of threads that the program should use. Useful for memory/power constrained machines.
- -C<PATH>, --target=PATH
- Requests a configuration file different than the default /etc/cherokee/cherokee.conf to be used
