Starting and Stopping Services

Running A Server

If we want to share our files with someone we can run a server from our terminal using service command. There are two ways listed here to do this:

• Running An Apache Server

  For this we are running appache2 server using the command:

  sudo service apache2 start

  This will start a server on the device ip address which can be accessible from Firefox

  We can stop the server by the following command:

  sudo service apache2 stop

  

  

• Running Server Through Python

  In order to run the server we are going to use the following command:

  python -m http.server <port_number>

  

  

systemctl Command

This command is used to enable or disable services or applications to start on boot.

sudo systemctl enable/disable <service_name>
