    Hi, this is my first post and I'm very new to this but is there an easy way to get Raspberry Pi set up to run MyController, or a guide somewhere I could follow? Many thanks!

      @mtbhuw Welcome to MyController 🙂

      Yes, @Tag has created an awesome document for Raspberry PI.

        Thanks for the link. I had read that, but doesn't that just install Java onto the RPi? I need to know how to get MyController onto it as well.

            That's excellent thankyou. I've installed both no problems and it's running fine. It picked up my serial gateway straight away. Now to experiment with some sensors 🙂👍

              Cool!! welcome! 👍
              (Are there any improvements we can make to the install document, or was all clear?)

                The instructions to install My Controller and set it up for the first time was very clear. Perhaps make it a "sticky" at the top of the forum, if possible?

                If I wanted to autostart MyController on bootup, is this possible? By adding a line in /etc/rc.local perhaps?

                Thanks for all the help to get me up and running.

                  I added the script and commands to make Mycontroller auto starting/stopping when rebooting to the installation topic let me know if this works for you.

                    That's great, thanks, I'll give that a try. Were the instructions there before or have you just added that? If they were already there, sorry! I must have missed them.
