Starting the Server

erii server

The server listens on http://localhost:8080 by default.

Sub-commands

Command Description
erii server start Start the server as a detached background process (default)
erii server stop Stop the server
erii server status View server status
erii server restart Restart the server

Background mode is not process supervision

Background mode only detaches the server from the current terminal. It does not monitor or automatically restart a crashed process. Use Supervisor, runit, or a container restart policy when automatic recovery is required.

Changing Default Credentials

Security Warning

Make sure to change the default admin panel username and password after the first start!

The default credentials are eriix / @Aa123!. Change them via environment variables:

# Linux / macOS
export ERII_SERVER_USERNAME="your-username"
export ERII_SERVER_PASSWORD="your-strong-password"

# Windows PowerShell
$env:ERII_SERVER_USERNAME="your-username"
$env:ERII_SERVER_PASSWORD="your-strong-password"

You can also configure them in the .env.local file:

ERII_SERVER_USERNAME=your-username
ERII_SERVER_PASSWORD=your-strong-password

If the default credentials are not changed, the server will print a yellow warning message in the console on startup.
