thanks

Hi all,

Yes, as Helmar said, the CONFIG_FILE is correct. This variable is used
by /etc/init.d/iwatch script, not by iwatch program.

The problem is caused by systemd and will need a manual action because
the systemd upstream do not want autoreloads. You can see more details
in #790262 [1].

[1] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=790262

What to do? Please, follow the steps:

1. Install iwatch via APT.

2. Change the /etc/default/iwatch

3. Run # systemctl daemon-reload

4. Run # /etc/init.d/iwatch restart

Please, let me to know if these actions solve the problem. I intend to
add these steps in README.Debian file.

Regards,

Eriberto
