So I am following the Radicale docs.
And the first method is this:
as normal user Recommended only for testing
Okay, I’m not testing, so I move onto the next one:
as system user (or as root) Alternatively, you can install and run as system user or as root (not recommended):
Okay, so this method is not recommended…
And there aren’t anymore.
So what’s the recommended method for non-testing environments???
They have split the doc for installation (i.e. procure binaries) and running as a service. Providing you can do the first, it is the latter linked part that tells you how to set up Radicale.
