What version of shadowsocks-libev are you using?

Snap edge version 3.31

What operating system are you using?

Ubuntu server 18.04

What did you do?

Need snap services scripts on boot
Now I can only run

sudo shadowsocks-libev.ss-server

sudo shadowsocks-libev.ss-local

Or

sudo snap run shadowsocks-libev.ss-server

What did you expect to see?

Need scripts in that I can do such as

sudo snap start shadowsocks-libev.ss-server

sudo snap start shadowsocks-libev.ss-local

What did you see instead?

What is your config in detail (with all sensitive info masked)?

I use systemd and write scripts, however they doesn’t work!

This is what happened:

$ ls -l /snap/bin/shadowsocks-libev.ss-server
/snap/bin/shadowsocks-libev.ss-server -> /usr/bin/snap*
$ sudo snap start /snap/bin/shadowsocks-libev.ss-server
error: snap "/snap/bin/shadowsocks-libev" has no service "ss-server"

What expected is to be able to start ss-server installed via snap as a service, like the systemd one.

Thanks!

So is this not an issue? If you install snap version on Ubuntu distro as the guide recommends, it is perfectly normal that you can't start the ss as a service?

Just used /snap/bin/shadowsocks-libev.ss-server as a execStart for systemd unit to fix the issue
