Domoticz

Hi,

I` trying to install Domoticz on a virtual machine. I`ve installed VMware Workstation Pro 17 and installed the Raspberry Pi OS Desktop as a virtual machine. All went well and the next step was installing Domoticz. I`ve done this "The easy way" by running command:
The installation went well and the terminal gave the response that Domoticz should be available at 192.168.100.122:8080. When I try to open
this in a browser it says the connection is refused. I`ve tried to install it multiple times, clear my browser cache but without any luck.

When I look at the status of domoticz.sh with the command:
It give the response: start-stop-daemon: unable to start /home/pi/domoticz/domoticz (No such file or directory).

I don`t know what to do to make Domoticz works on the virtual machine. Does someone has a tip?

In the past there were strange errors if 64-bit software was installed on a 32-bit OS.
Are you using Raspberry Pi Desktop for PC and Mac?
As far as I know that's a 32-bit OS. You can try with the option "arm_64bit=0" in "/boot/config.txt" to force install of 32-bit software.

Just to make sure, you do have a folder /home/pi/domoticz ?
In that case, it could indeed be a 64/32 bit issue like mentioned above

You could also use the docker compose installation option and have no issues

Thanks for the reply`s. I`ve now installed Ubuntu 24.04 (64 bit) as a virtual machine. The installation stopped at
the first try on the line: Checking for libssl1.1... I`ve managed this part by installing libssl1.1 with the commands:
After installing libssl1.1 the installation goes well, but after install the GUI also gave no response. The command
Response with: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.1: version `OPENSSL_1_1_1' not found.

I`m not sure what is the right thing to do now. I`ve tried docker before, but some liberies are different then the normal
installation what gave me some problems. Does someone know a solution to get domoticz work on Raspberry pi OS Desktop or Ubuntu 24.04?

Just use docker compose and it does not matter is your OS is 64/32 bit
Also, you have no library issues
