If you have followed the building instructions you should have an install directory containing all the necessary files for running the server.

Run the muniad service like so

install/bin/muniad --file <my database>.xml --port <my port> [--ssl]

If –file is omitted it, the database will be stored in /tmp/munia.xml which isn't very helpful but can be useful for quick tests. If —ssl is added valid certificates must be put in install/share/ws/libwebsockets-test-server.key.pem and install/share/ws/libwebsockets-test-server.pem.

these files can be generated with openssl

openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 -keyout install/share/ws/libwebsockets-test-server.key.pem -out install/share/ws/libwebsockets-test-server.pem -days 365 -nodes

After this the server can be connected to using the https: protocol instead of http:.
