      3 separate versions of ubuntu and even different minor versions of them. 16, 17 and 18 over the last two years. Never works, theres alwasys some package not found, some configuration not supported, something that keeps it from working, yet the output still says it works.

      For Ubuntu 18.04, are using the new installer or the old version?
      If you are using KVM, are you deploying Ubuntu using virt-builder?

        I typed in the command on the github page. It says it completed successfully, but no xo.

        You need to dig deeper to figure out why it isn't working correctly in your environment.

        For instance, from an SSH session, you could issue the command sudo systemctrl status xo-server to check and see if the service successfully started and is actvie.

        To view the logs, you can enter the command sudo journalctl -u xo-server -f -n 50

          @danp I know how to check error logs. The point is the installer keeps on going after errors are encountered, then says everything is ok when it is done.
          Like just now, "no package redis-server available" well that seems pretty important, why not err out there and tell me? Instead it goes through and says "Your xo is now ready, go to ip address and start using it"

            I've deployed this at least a dozen times on all of these releases and I don't recall a time that it hasn't worked :man_shrugging:

            It looks like a few of us are willing to help if you have the time to post your logs...

              @momurda Understood. I'm sure the error checking could be improved. However, you haven't given any concrete examples to show where it is failing. If we can't duplicate the issue, then it is difficult for us to fix.

              I've never seen the issue with redis-server. Can you provide a link to the ISO you are using to perform the OS install?

                Sanity check here, just installed on the regular 18.04 iso

                Also, for shits and giggles, just did it on the mini.iso since I've never done it before. Selected "basic server" option with nothing but apt install openssh-server and ufw allow 80/tcp

                @momurda Something funky is definitely going on. Any proxy or firewall stuff that could be blocking some of the packages? I seem to remember somebody having that problem in the past, too...

                  It is the 1804 server iso
                  The first step of the script fails and cant find redis-server, it then continues on through and installs everything else without a db.

                    While the script should detect the error and abort, you can't hold it responsible for something on your end that is preventing the package from being found. This is what I get when I run the same command --

                        For some reason most of the normal sources aren't available on the install from this iso.

                        running apt-cache policy gives me like 3 results, where the ISO I normally use, and even the mini.iso list like 15 sources

                          Its not something on my end.
                          The repo for redis-server isnt on the server iso repo.
                          It is on the regular ubuntu repo.

                              But that isn't something we should "fix", if you chose to use a repo that doesn't have the minimal requirements, you should install the requirements before installing this.

                                I just had this conversation 2 maybe 3 weeks ago with a person who was complaining about the install failing because they chose an ISO that had cmdtest package, which breaks other dependencies.

                                If you're using a shitty iso, it's on you to fix the issues in that ISO, not on us to hope and pray we've caught and fixed every possible upstream issue.

                                  With that said, if you come and report the issue to us, we can try and assist you with the error you're encountering. But you can't expect us to account for things that we aren't specifically out looking for.

                                  If redis-server isn't in your repos' add it, update and then try the install.

                                  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/redis-server
                                  
                                  sudo apt-get update

                                    It is the official server iso from ubuntu. I also redownloaded this same iso from ubuntu.com and there is also no redis-server. Nowhere does your guide say to install prerequisites or add repositories to install. It says 'install ubuntu server and use this one line installer'. I did that and it fails 100% of the time. redis-server isnt on the ubuntu server iso repo by default.

                                      Use the alternate version
                                      http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/18.04/release/ubuntu-18.04.1-server-amd64.iso

                                      Instead of the new default version
                                      http://releases.ubuntu.com/18.04.1/ubuntu-18.04.1-live-server-amd64.iso

                                        But you've stated redis isn't included in the ISO you've used, normally you don't have to go and troubleshoot anything as the main Ubuntu and Debian distro's just work. (Debian does require some additional setup but that's adding sudo and curl).

                                        Otherwise nothing is required. I'm testing with the ISO you've provided.

                                          Even if not included, apt-get should go and find it.

                                            Fixed by ditching ubuntu, my SOP today with ubuntu based installers and setups.
                                            First try on debian, works with one warning about optional fsevents component.
                                            This component only seems to be for osx so not sure why it is being triggered here during the install.
