Headless I2P installation instructions
1) java -jar i2pinstall.exe -console (you've already done this)
This will run the installer in text mode, including running the postinstall.sh
script. After that, you may run 'sh i2prouter start'
which will start the router and attempt to launch a browser.
If you do not have an X server running, the browser launch will probably fail, and
you may use:
lynx http://localhost:7657/index.jsp
to configure the router.
If you're having trouble, swing by http://forum.i2p2.de/, check the
website at http://www.i2p2.de/, or get on irc://irc.freenode.net/#i2p
I2P will create and store files and configuration data in the user directory
~/.i2p/ on Linux and %APPDATA%\I2P\ on Windows. This directory is created
when I2P is run for the first time. It also creates files in the system
temporary directory specified by the Java Virtual Machine.
To change the location of these directories, or to configure I2P to
put all files in this directory (the so-called "portable" configuration),
edit the files i2prouter (Linux) and wrapper.config (Linux and Windows)
where there are comments labeled "PORTABLE". Do this before you
run I2P for the first time.
To run I2P explicitly:
(*nix): sh i2prouter start
(win*): I2P.exe
To stop the router (gracefully):
lynx http://localhost:7657/configservice.jsp ("Shutdown gracefully")
To stop the router (immediately):
sh i2prouter stop
To uninstall I2P:
rm -rf $i2pInstallDir
