Domoticz

hello,

I've been trying to reload Domoticz on my PI 3 rev B, the Domoticz has been operating on this PI for years but recently crashed and I have to reload. I have set the PI to boot from usb Flash drive but when I run curl -L https://install.domoticz.com | bash SSH the system stops at checking for git...pi@raspberrypi:~ $

It just sits and does not complete the installation, any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Maybe permissions, are you logged in as root or using sudo ?

Yes, actually used "sudo curl -L https://install.domoticz.com | bash SSH" I've even tried multiple flash drives with the same results.

You have to use 'curl -sSL install.domoticz.com | sudo bash' from within a ssh session (if you use ssh to access your RPi)
Else just logon to your Pi, start a terminal session and run 'curl -sSL install.domoticz.com | sudo bash'

I have tried 'curl -sSL install.domoticz.com | sudo bash' multiple times with the same results. I even checked and SHA hash to verify that the raspian lite image is correct.

Thanks

Did you do an raspian update before installing?
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

Yes, it replied with broken pipe when I ran the upgrade command, could not get it to fully install the upgrade. I just used pi imager to re flash the usb and am in the process of rebooting the PI. After I set the timezone and expand the file system I'll retry the sudo apt update and the sudo apt upgrade commands.

Thanks

All,

It appears as though all of the problems resulted from setting the PI 3 rev B to use the usb instead of the SD to boot. Even though the commands to add the usb as a mass storage device went smoothly and no errors occurred it would take at least an hour to receive an dhcp address and several hours to expand the file system. I had a PI 4 delivered yesterday, it immediately booted off of the usb and I had Domoticz loaded within 5 minuets.

Thank you for your help
