      I redo a clean installation.
      by following the modification of the tuto .

      there is an error message for the installation of influxdb

       wget -qO- https://repos.influxdata.com/influxdb.key | sudo apt-key add -
      Warning: apt-key is deprecated. Manage keyring files in trusted.gpg.d instead (see apt-key(8)).
      E: This command can only be used by root.
      
      

      Fix “Waning: apt-key is deprecated. Manage keyring files in trusted.gpg.d instead”

      "Even if this is a warning message, you can continue to use apt-key, but it will be removed in the next releases. So it will be a good idea to start using the new way."

      "Solution:
      ..... new way of adding GPG keys to the system and avoiding the above warning.
      The following command will download a remote GPG key, encrypt it and save it..... "

      see how we can solve the problem.

      and maybe upgrade to version 2 of influxdata?

          I found the problem

          in the config file: mycontroller.yaml

          database: > metric: > disabled: true

          it must be "true".
          and it's ok, the MyC page is displayed

          but I find myself with the error

          "WARNING: Metrics database disabled"

          a future with influxdb2 ....
          Yes, I will have to open a new thread on the marriage between MyC and influxDB 🙂

            @JeeLet can you show your metric configuration? hide credentials
            sample configuration: https://v2.mycontroller.org/docs/installation/advanced-installation/backend-configuration/#sample-of-cloud-influxdb-configuration

              excuse me @jkandasa I gave up, a moment of tiredness.

              I started all over again.
              I started again with influxdb 1.xx .
              For influxdb2.xx I start again in the week with another OdroidC2 .

              it's not very good to want to test new versions at the same time, MyC2++ and influxDB2

              but now I can install influxDB2 without any problem 🙂

                @JeeLet I tried influxdb2 locally and work ok.

                once you setup influxdb2 in your host, setup a API TOKEN for mycontroller.
                Details are in https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/security/tokens/create-token/#manage-tokens-in-the-influxdb-ui

                metric database configuration will be looking like this,

                metric:
                  disabled: false
                  type: influxdb
                  uri: http://192.168.122.1:8086
                  token: uBykOQ_17_m-KMdBkWa_UiTNpBViQH***akY_Rec_49kV0gLg_zZZw==
                  username:
                  password:
                  organization_name: myc_org
                  bucket_name: myc
                  batch_size:
                  flush_interval: 5s

                  Thank you for the additional information.

                  yes, influxDB2 is working well with MyC 🙂

                  but I have to put the parameter to true

                  database: > metric: > disabled: true
                  

                  so that the web page opens, otherwise it's a black screen.

                  with as result the message :
                  "WARNING: Metrics database disabled

                  weird

                  it doesn't matter.
                  now I look at influxdb2 how to use it with myC

                      @jkandasa I found it

                      when MyC has not yet created data, a blank system (no connection and activation of the gateway)

                      the connection for the web page is not possible if
                      "metric: disabled : true"

                      MyController does not like to be alone 🙂

                          I gave this as sample: organization_name: myc_org
                          update to your organization, when you setup indluxdb 2

                          Yes also the deletion of fields/nodes/gateway are not possible with the interface, it remains in memory, I am obliged to go in the yaml file and delete them

                          I will check this

                          I'm going to take a little vacation.

                          Enjoy your vacation 🙂

                            update your organization, when you configure indluxdb 2 ... yes it is well understood, that's what I did .

                            I just redid a new install, armbian/MyC/InfluxDB2 with the right configuration, and still the same "metric" problem

                            I even tested on the Gateway sketch with the line
                            "metric = getControllerConfig().isMetric;" ..... it's a firework of errors 🙂

                            yes from the vacations
                            and I forget about influxDB2 ( for the moment)

                                I have been following the install instructions as laid out by JeeLet on 13 March 2022, but the URL for the v2 download on GitHub is not working. What URL should I direct my Pi terminal to for the server install? I am trying to get the server installed on my Pi running the newest RPi OS, but have stalled out. I ran the

                                @JeeLet said in Armbian - MyC V2 - install:

                                ls /opt/apps/mycontroller/

                                command and only got "mc_home mycontroller.yaml" as the response. I assume this means I do not actually have the MC server package downloaded and placed correctly on my Pi.

                                I have installed influxdb and appear to get the correct responses in the terminal, but can't get it to start the MC Server and believe it is likley not installed correctly or at all.

                                  the doc is updated: "20 juin 2023 "

                                  look at the example in Docker : https://mycontroller.org/docs/installation/quick-installation/docker-container/

                                  or without dockers https://github.com/mycontroller-org/server/releases/tag/development

                                  yes, jkandasa has overhauled the code structure, maybe that's the reason for the problems?
