HOST — keeping a command running without a terminal

Raised while handing a long-running command to this machine’s service manager, or reading what it already holds.

CodeSeverityExitWhat it meansWhat to do
HOST-1warning1This machine has no service manager lemonfiber can configure. The command can still be run, and it will still stop when the terminal running it closes.Keep the command running yourself, or arrange it with whatever this system uses to start things at login.
HOST-2error1A service definition could not be written. Nothing was installed, so nothing is running and nothing was left behind.Check that the directory exists and belongs to you, then try again.
HOST-3error1The service manager refused what it was asked. The definition that had been written was removed again, so nothing is half-installed.Read what it said below, then try again once that is dealt with.
HOST-4error1This machine will not say where lemonfiber keeps its own files.Set a home directory for this account, then install it again.
HOST-5error1This run cannot say where its own program is, so there is nothing to name in a service definition.Run this again from an installed copy of lemonfiber rather than a piped one.
HOST-6error1The guard is to be hosted against nothing — it was not told what to guard.Name the forms to guard, as you would when running the guard yourself.

What each severity and each exit means is on every error by code, beside every other family.
