Why is Domoticz impossible to install?

[Alpha]

I've tried several versions of Raspian and get stuck everywhere. Either with the "easy install", which might either fail right from the get go or allowing me to go through setting options and ports, but crashes with ssl errors. Installing opensll or ca-certificates doesn't help. Downloading the tarball doesn't work either, it says:

"plugins/AwoxSMP/lib/__init__.py
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors"


Using the SD card image it throws lots of errors during boot, then mounts read the filesystem read only.


The hardware is a Raspberry Pi 3B which I've used about a year with no issues.

Did yet another fresh install of Raspian Stretch, updated, upgraded, set a few options in raspi-config, rebooted, then:

pi@raspberrypi:~$ sudo curl -L install.domoticz.com | bash

Did a sudo su - first, then tried again:

The installation started, went through the port settings and stuff again, then:

There was a problem with the web-site, should be fixed now

I'm sorry but the download is still not possible (certificate was issued for gandalf.domoticz.com but URL points to releases.domoticz.com/releases/downloads.php) Seems like english is not spoken at https://www.domoticz.com/downloads/index.html
Please find manual download instructions viewtopic.php?f=6&t=22948#p176995

I also just tried to install domoticz and the installation stops when Checking for git ....
After this message I get the command prompt again.

Anybody an idea ?

[MrRikkie]

My issue is solved, after an sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get install git and reinstall it worked.
