Effective Usage: Control Wuala With Your Console
On Linux systems, Wuala can be controlled within the terminal. You can use these commands to run Wuala without a graphical interface.
The commands are limited to the basic functions, since we recommend using Wuala with the graphical interface. The terminal commands are construed primary to run Wuala as a trading node.
Getting started
To start Wuala without gui, run the script wualacmd.
./wualacmd
Feel free to edit the script for your personal needs.
To give commands to the running Wuala program, use the script "wuala". The syntax is:
./wuala command
Frequently asked functions
How can I start trading when running without gui?
1. Login to your account with
./wuala login Username Password
2. start trading with
./wuala startTrading
Be sure to do this after your online time has reached a value of >17%. If you do this while your online time is less, the setting will not be recognized correctly from our servers. If this is the case, you´ll have to enter the stop trading command (./wuala stopTrading) before you can start trading correctly.

The auto login command is not working without the GUI. You have to login manually with the command
./wuala login username password
You can write the login command into the wualacmd batch if you like to, but be aware: you will leave your username and password on your system when you do this.
