Starting Toaster
Once we have installed Toaster’s requirements, we are ready to start its server. To do this, we should go to Poky’s directory and run the following commands:
$ source oe-init-build-env $ source toaster start
The commands take some time to finish. When everything is set up, the web server is started. The result is shown in the following figure.
Figure 3.1 – The result of the source toaster startup
To access the Toaster web interface, open your favorite browser and enter the following:
http://127.0.0.1:8000
Note
By default, Toaster starts on port 8000
. The webport
parameter lets you use a different port – for example, $ source toaster
start webport=8400
.
Next, we can see the starting page of Toaster:
