Hi

I'm facing the below error while trying to initialize the database after
starting, with ovs-vsctl.
Please find the logs below:

OVS version - 2.3.0

controller at controller-Latitude-E5440:~$ sudo ovs-vsctl --no-wait init
[sudo] password for controller:
ovs-vsctl: unix:/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock: database connection
failed (Connection refused)
controller at controller-Latitude-E5440:~$ ps -eaf | grep ovsdb-server

ovsdb-server
controller at controller-Latitude-E5440:~$ ovs-vswitch --version
No command 'ovs-vswitch' found, did you mean:
 Command 'ovs-vswitchd' from package 'openvswitch-switch' (main)
ovs-vswitch: command not found
controller at controller-Latitude-E5440:~$ ovs-vswitchd --version
ovs-vswitchd (Open vSwitch) 2.3.0
