Debian install

From Cumulus MX version 3 build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since, and has recently released Cumulus MX version 4. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Debian install

Post by BooH|ooWUHU »

I am trying to install CMX4 on Linux Mint Debian Edition.
I am following the guide on this page
viewtopic.php?t=18766

I am getting hung up at
5> Edit the file cumulusmx.service located in ~/CumulusMX/MXutils/linux/
The problem is I do not see that file.

Not sure if thats an outdated guide.
Any help appreciated.

Yeah that's pretty old now. There's an additional info post for MX V4 - see the "installing as a service on Linux" section.

Thanks. I'll give that a try

Edit:

So, from the link you provided, am I correct that first I need to installl .Net 8 for Debian, via
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/dotne ... bs=dotnet8

After following the instructions to install .Net, if |I run the command dotnet --info
to confirm installation, I get dotnet: command not found
Same if I run dotnet --list-sdks

If I run the installation sudo apt-get update && \
sudo apt-get install -y dotnet-sdk-8.0

I get dotnet-sdk-8.0 is already the newest version (8.0.405-1).

Thanks for any suggestions
