Pre-flight checks
What happened?
following the steps described in the installation manual. gateway does not get started after onboarding, as implied there.
output of openclaw gateway status:
Service: systemd (disabled)
File logs: /tmp/openclaw/openclaw-2026-05-05.log
Service config looks out of date or non-standard.
Service config issue: Gateway service PATH is not set; the daemon should use a minimal PATH.
Recommendation: run "openclaw doctor" (or "openclaw doctor --repair").
Config (cli): ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
Config (service): ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
Gateway: bind=loopback (127.0.0.1), port=18789 (env/config)
Probe target: ws://127.0.0.1:18789
Dashboard: http://127.0.0.1:18789/
Probe note: Loopback-only gateway; only local clients can connect.
Runtime: unknown (systemctl not available; systemd user services are required on Linux.)
RPC probe: ok
systemd user services unavailable.
systemd user services are unavailable; install/enable systemd or run the gateway under your supervisor.
If you're in a container, run the gateway in the foreground instead of openclaw gateway.
Listening: 127.0.0.1:18789, [::1]:18789
Troubles: run openclaw status
Troubleshooting: https://docs.openclaw.ai/troubleshooting
What did you expect to happen?
I expect the gateway to be reachable via the button in the webui
Steps to reproduce
literally just follow these provided instructions in the installation manual

What happened?
following the steps described in the installation manual. gateway does not get started after onboarding, as implied there.
output of openclaw gateway status:
Service: systemd (disabled)
File logs: /tmp/openclaw/openclaw-2026-05-05.log
Service config looks out of date or non-standard.
Service config issue: Gateway service PATH is not set; the daemon should use a minimal PATH.
Recommendation: run "openclaw doctor" (or "openclaw doctor --repair").
Config (cli): ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
Config (service): ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
Gateway: bind=loopback (127.0.0.1), port=18789 (env/config)
Probe target: ws://127.0.0.1:18789
Dashboard: http://127.0.0.1:18789/
Probe note: Loopback-only gateway; only local clients can connect.
Runtime: unknown (systemctl not available; systemd user services are required on Linux.)
RPC probe: ok
systemd user services unavailable.
systemd user services are unavailable; install/enable systemd or run the gateway under your supervisor.
If you're in a container, run the gateway in the foreground instead of
openclaw gateway.Listening: 127.0.0.1:18789, [::1]:18789
Troubles: run openclaw status
