How to connect to Vault server

0 votes

I wanted to give a try to vault, so I configured VAULT_ADDR as:

$ echo $VAULT_ADDR 

http://127.0.0.1:8200

then I started vault in dev mode (vault server -dev) and everything was ok, I was able to connect to the server.

Then I wrote a really simple config file:

$ cat vault.config 

backend "inmem"

listener "tcp" {

  address = "127.0.0.1:8200"

  tls_disable = 1

}

disable_mlock = true

and I restarted the server with vault server -config=vault.config, but then when I connect to the server, I get:

$ vault status

Error checking seal status: Get http://127.0.0.1:8200/v1/sys/seal-status: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:8200: getsockopt: connection refused

Is there something wrong in my config file?

You need to configure the back end like this:

backend "inmem" {}

otherwise there is a problem parsing the listener clause.
