Domoticz

Version: xxxx
Platform: Linux Mint
Plugin/Hardware:
Description:

Hi everybody. This is my first post. I am trying to setup my first domoticz server using Linux Mint.
I installed Mint fresh and updated all the packages.
Then I ran the command:

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

I walked through the wizard pages and everything went without errors.
When the wizard was finished I should be able to open the admin port via:

http://192.168.1.108:8080 or https://192.168.1.108:443

I receive this error:

Unable to connect
Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at 192.168.1.108:8080.

When I check the service I get this message:

sudo service domoticz status

Can you help me resolve this?

Seems you are missing libssl.so.1.1
So you should add that. See for example https://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=40553

I am a Linux-newbee and the suggested procedure is not working for me.
If I should use a different OS that's fine, please help me make the best choice.

The error I got applying the fix:

sebastiaan@ASROCK:~$ sudo dpkg -i /home/sebastiaan/Downloads/libssl-dev_1.1.0g-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb
dpkg: warning: downgrading libssl-dev:amd64 from 3.0.2-0ubuntu1.15 to 1.1.0g-2ubuntu4

You can also use the docker compose method to install/run Domoticz

https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Docker

Or use Ubuntu instead of a lesser used distro like Mint.

Okay. I will try Ubuntu first. To be continued..

Installed latest Ubuntu Desktop, same issue:

Try with an older version that has libssl1 installed.
Or go the docker way.
