Hi Oleg,

Here is what repeats in my luci.log:

    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/usr/bin/paster", line 9, in <module>
        load_entry_point('PasteScript==1.7.3', 'console_scripts',

        self.filename))
    LookupError: No section 'init' (prefixed by 'server') found in
    config /var/lib/luci/etc/luci.ini
    Removing PID file /var/run/luci/luci.pid

When I installed luci, I had to do a "touch /var/lib/luci/etc/luci.ini"
because I couldn't get past this start failure message:

    -bash-4.1$ sudo service luci start
    Unable to create the luci base configuration file
    (`/var/lib/luci/etc/luci.ini').
    Start luci...                                              [FAILED]

Did I miss a step after installing luci that I should have done before
trying to start it?
