- * PingPanel INSTALL.txt (C) 2024 by Siegrist(SystemLösungen) <pingpanel@zweiernet.ch>
- INSTALL
- ========
- On Debian/Ubuntu related systems install with:
- ----------------------------------------------
- - #dpkg -i pingpanel_<version>_all.deb
- You may encounter problems like:
- dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of pingpanel:
- pingpanel depends on python3-tornado (>= 6.0); however:
- Package python3-tornado is not installed.
- pingpanel depends on fping (>= 5.0); however:
- Package fping is not installed.
-
- Then, check the dependencies with:
- - #apt-get check
- and install the dependencies with:
- - #apt --fix-broken install
- Afterwards the pingpanel package ist fully instsalled under /opt/PingPanel/.
- The daemon start file pingpanel in the init.d/ directory is in the standard LSB format for SysV systems.
- So, on systemd related systems at least use:
- - #systemctl daemon-reload
- After all, start the PingPanel Daemon:
- - #service pingpanel start
- On other systems using the tar-archive:
- ---------------------------------------
- - #cd /opt
- - #tar xvfz pingpanel_<version>.tar.gz
- Requirements:
- - python3-tornado >= 6.0 (https://www.tornadoweb.org/en/stable/)
- - fping >= 5.0 (https://fping.org/)
- The directory ./etc.example contains startup file in ./init.d and a default pingpanel file under ./default.
- If you want to use a different installation directory, you must adjust the default file
- and/or the init.d startup script to the appropriate pathes and names.
- After all, start the PingPanel Daemon:
- - #/etc/init.d/pingpanel start
- Configuration
- -------------
- The configuration is made in the config.cfg file located in the installation directory.
- All parameters are documented in this file.
- If you want to use a name other than config.cfg, you can specify this in the /etc/default/pingpanel file
- or with the -c <filename> param to the PingPanel.py script.
- All Messages are written to the file /var/log/pingpanel.log, unless
- you define a different name in /etc/default/pingpanel.
- Upgrade
- ========
- On Debian/Ubuntu related systems upgrade with:
- ----------------------------------------------
- - #dpkg -i pingpanel_<version>_all.deb
- The configuration files (config.cfg and /etc/default/pingpanel) will be preserved.
- New files will be given the prefix .dpkg-NEW.
- Adjust your config.cfg file with the new paramameters from .dpkg-NEW.
- Restart the PingPanel Daemon.
- On other systems using the tar-archive:
- ---------------------------------------
- Install the tar-file in a new empty directory and then copy the relevant files to your active install-dir.
