Comment 1 Alin Năstac (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-11-23 10:10:19 UTC
works for me on amd64

privoxy is supposed to get started by running the init.d script with the same name:
  /etc/init.d/privoxy start
Comment 2 Alexander Jenisch 2005-11-23 10:21:33 UTC
i had this working too until today. maybe it stopped working, because of the
mysql upgrade.
Comment 3 Alin Năstac (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-11-23 12:06:47 UTC
by default privoxy tries to open config file from the current directory.
unless your pwd is /etc/privoxy, this command won't work.

this is the way privoxy works. it may not be the perfect way, but it is kind of
common behaviour among programs that could run on win32 and unix.
