How do I create userinfo.db? I get an error message when I start ss-server because userinfo.db does not exist.

What OS are you using? userinfo.db should be created automatically to the current directory if it doesn't exist. Make sure you have permission to create files in the directory you start ss-server

Server is running Ubuntu 18.04.

All steps are done as root.

shadowsocks-libev listens on port 443. There is a web server listening on port 8443.

shadowsocks-libev is configured with:

    "plugin":"/usr/local/bin/ck-server",
    "plugin_opts":"/etc/ck-server/config.json"

The configuration file /etc/ck-server/config.json looks like this:

{
"WebServerAddr":"127.0.0.1:8443",
"PrivateKey":"UKc1jvZgl0vFqP3Cpw23wyfoTod8yWHCf87MsKvLglY=",
"AdminUID":"IS0rRsd8HNtnWLmnxvPMtQfUtE0GoJ2GmPio+CSYbkk=",
"DatabasePath":"userinfo.db",
"BackupDirPath":""
}

Shadowsocks-libev is started by systemd:

systemctl restart shadowsocks-libev

DatabasePath field of the config file is a relative path, Cloak will attempt to create userinfo.db at the current working directory. For systemctl services I believe that's /. This is most likely not where you want to put the userinfo.db and it may have trouble creating it.

Try to change DatabasePath to an absolute path like /home/[your username]/[some sub directories]/userinfo.db. Do the same to BackupDirPath as well because otherwise ck-server will attempt to create database backups under /
