I do not see anything in the logs.. The paths should be the same /mystic  I can now get mystic -cfg to work (turned out I did have a couple pi executables remain qwkpoll and couple others, took care of that did a whole fresh install on a new ubuntu machine.

now when I run ./mystic -l I simply get a blank screen that just says "busy" and have to ctrl c to get prompt back. ./mis starts and runs and appears fine.  Not sure what to check next to be honest.  I can start another vm and try again but I am pretty sure thats the definition of insanity! lol

Thank you for your help
