I've created stats gatherer with command tahoe create-stats-gatherer --hostname=HOSTNAME $BASEDIR my $BASEDIR contains now three files location port tahoe-stats-gatherer.tac

port is open

but when I do tahoe start $BASEDIR

I get following set of lines with error

Anyone out there?

I noticed that documentation suggests using "run" instead of "start" But it does not work either

The message says "Custom logging options; can't monitor logs for proper startup messages"

when reading the code I found that it will be issued if the started node is neither "client" nor "introducer" It makes sense, the node I try to start is "stats-gatherer" so it will never work.

is there a way to actually make stats gatherer working?
