[Sylv01]

Hello guys, sorry for my bad English, but I'm french man !
I'm trying to install domoticz into a linux distribution, called Mageia, and I have a pb.
During checking, installation stop after this message :

Code: Select all

:::    Checking for domoticz_DEP...[root@localhost sylvain]# 

What is "domoticz_DEP", it's an environment variable ?
How can I setting it ?
Many thanks in advance !

Hi,

Is there something on/after the dots (...) after domoticz_DEP?

During installation domoticz checks if the requirements for dependencies are for filled.
Obviously not.

HI @Sylv01

Which RPM package did you install. Where does it come from?

I'm only using installation procedure like that :

Code: Select all

[root@localhost ~]# sudo curl -L install.domoticz.com | bash
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed

The installation method, you used is an old method and was used for Ubuntu (Debian) based systems.

The new method, you may find at: https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Linux

The correct command is: sudo bash -c "$(curl -sSfL https://install.domoticz.com)"

However this is still for Ubuntu based systems.

You might know Mageia is one of the forks of Mandriva, which is on its turn the successor of Mandrake Linux, which is again a fork of Red Hat.
Mageia still uses the RPM package system and not apt. (apt-get)

You might look for a RPM package. perhaps one of the latest Fedora packages.
But I don't think version 2022-2 is available. At least I could not find it.

Ok thanks, I'm trying the new method, same result...
On the installation script, you can see that there is a verification between Debian based systems (who use apt-get) and Red-Hat based systems, using dnf.
However, Mageia use dnf, so I think it is not really the problem, but a missing dependencies, I don'y know wich.
So, my best way is looking for a domoticz rpm, not really a pb if there isn't last update...
It's strange because I remember that I have red somewhere on this forum, that a guy is using domoticz on Mageia...

Hi @Sylv01

It's strange because I remember that I have red somewhere on this forum, that a guy is using domoticz on Mageia...

I saw this as well, but its post is from January 2017. So quite old.
You have to find the correct RPM
