@FATeknollogee On this screen, it looks like MeshCentral was able to grab ports 80, 443 and 4433 as normal. Looks good and port 81 was not used. Is there still a problem? Looks ok to me.
Same error:
MeshCentral HTTP redirection web server running on port 81. ERROR: Redirection web server must be active on port 80 for Let's Encrypt to work. MeshCentral v0.2.5-d, WAN mode. MeshCentral HTTPS web server running on control.mydomain.com:444 -
@FATeknollogee Is it not possible MeshCentral is being run twice? If port 80, 443 and 4433 are already taken by one instance of MeshCentral, running it again will take ports 81, 444 and 4434.
-
@Ylian Will "systemctl stop meshcentral.service" stop all running instances?
-
@Ylian Looks like I was running a few commands out of order.
First, I should:systemctl stop meshcentral.servicenext, enable LE in the config.json
and then runnode ./node_modules/meshcentral -
Updated to 0.2.5-e this morning.
-
Updating to 0.2.5-f now.
-
Still want to do this. just no time yet.
-
Just updated from 0.2.5-f to 0.2.5-j. It has been a busy morning, I guess!

Considered creating a script to update it?

No, it's the kind of thing we want to control the timing of as someone might be working for a client at any given moment 24x7.

A shell script does not a cron job make!

A script only makes sense in that context, though, since it is just the click of a button to update it as it is.

Ah. That's nice. Obviously haven't gotten around to getting this installed yet myself.... my new server should be delivered today, so maybe by this weekend.

@scottalanmiller Script... or set "SelfUpdate" to true in settings section of MeshCentral's config.json. It's supposed to update sometime between midnight and 1am, but I got to check that code again. I may be updating in UTC time or something.
"settings": { "SelfUpdate": true }, -
@Ylian
I have the update setting enabled but my one server is still on 0.2.4-w -
I'm on 0.2.5-k now.

Holy Smokes!
This tool rocks. Has anybody tried the Agent on a Wayland interface yet?

Yeah it does!
-
Have y'all tried it with a system that uses Wayland yet? Or are your clients mainly Windows?

We use a bit of Linux, but probably none with Wayland.
