vnstat service can't start

[forester]

Dear all,

I have installed TrueOS. To monitor network traffic I installed vnstat. Followed below steps. My issue is service is not starting. Could you guide me how to overcome this. I have very limited information about freeBSD platform. If you need other details please tell. Thanks in advance for your guidance.

Steps which I follow:
Main link I use it to install : https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/freebsd-install-vnstat-network-traffic-monitor-software/

1 - sudo su
2 - pkg install vnstat
3 - add em0 into /usr/local/etc/rc.conf
# default interface

Interface "em0"

4 - add below line to rc.conf
echo 'vnstat_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
5 - try to start service
service vnstat start
* service: service 'vnstat' does not exist

It seems you've already asked on the TrueOS forum which is where you're more likely to get an answer. TrueOS is heavily customised and appears to have replaced the FreeBSD rc subsystem. I suspect the vnstat port hasn't been patched to support their service framework.

On vanilla FreeBSD I have no issue installing vnstat and starting the service.

Thanks for your answer. As you recommend I will chaise this case via TrueOS forum.
