Are the command line options given with double dashes, or single dash. Instructions in readme show double dashes, here in --help output I see single dash.

I found the following in strace -f

[jiridanek]

Aha, got it. Go defaults GOPATH to $HOME/go when the variable is unset, but scoot requires explicit value there,

export GOPATH=/root/go

fixes my problem, scoot now starts up.

edit: but dies eventually with

but that is probably another issue.

[ryancouto]

thanks for the report! are you able to run the apiserver binary on its own?

[jiridanek]

Yes. I've reported the second issue, the broken port check, in #481. Turned out I did not have nc installed.
