Consistent restarts on lite-xl and Vscode due to missing configs.

[lsnellm1]

It seems that the server is asking for various configs, but the ReadMe never specifies where the configs are supposed to be, or how to tell serve-d to look for them. This is on the nightly release, but AFAIK this was also a problem on the most recent stable version as well.

lite-xl log here:

[WebFreak001]

for the config logs: serve-d is using standard values if you haven't configured any overrides, see

serve-d/source/served/types.d

Do you have the exit code or other logs when it restarts? It might just be segfaulting due to some other issue

[lsnellm1]

Do you know where the logs might be stored? I don't see any specific exit codes in lite-xl's log, at the very least. Everything else is just saying it's loading, and then restarting because the config is messed up.
