Cockpit

geaves · 26. November 2018

@TechnoDadLife just watched the Cockpit video, I take if you had no plans to use a vm you could bypass the first install.

geaves · 27. November 2018

Ok, just tried the install and get the following;

Code

E: Unable to locate package cockpit
E: Unable to locate package cockpit-docker
E: Unable to locate package cockpit-machines
E: Unable to locate package cockpit-packagekit
E: Unable to locate package cockpit-storaged

But, it does install the first set of commands, searching, the option seems to be to add the following to the etc/apt/sources.list

Code

deb  http://deb.debian.org/debian  stretch main
deb-src  http://deb.debian.org/debian  stretch main

You have to have backports enabled to install cockpit - https://packages.debian.org/se…on=names&keywords=cockpit

Thanks, must have missed the memo and it installs with backports.

It will install with the PPA or backports. The version in the PPA is old though.

I like it, displays some easier to read information, groups updates together i.e. latest samba release.

How do I install backports on armbian? (sorry if it's a stupid question)

You click the enable backports button in omv-extras.

enabling this results in a popup with "communication failure", and endless waiting while its tries to enable.

Your system is struggling with apt-get update then. Post the output of (run as root): apt-get update

Mine did the same, after 10 mins of watching 'enabling backports' I refreshed the page, then carried on with the install, and it's working.

had to delete some of it because of posting limit - hope this makes sense

You can ignore the weakref.py issue. There are many posts about this in the forum.

To fix it
get -O /usr/lib/python3.5/weakref.py https://raw.githubusercontent.com/python/cpython/9cd7e17640a49635d1c1f8c2989578a8fc2c1de6/Lib/weakref.py

Regarding the multiple listing you can commend in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openmediavault-kernel-backports.list

Remove the backports line from /etc/apt/sources.list

Ok thanks for that. Errors are gone. But installation fails

Code

This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or

Yes, was just following the Cockpit install video from Technodadlife.
I skipped this step (virtualization), and Cockpit is now installed
Thanks for your help!

Not sure why Debian doesn't package the qemu-kvm package but most people probably would never create an arm virtual machine.

Today, we will install Cockpit to manage our dockers, VMs, terminal and Users on Openmediavault

I forgot in the video that you need backports enabled if it isn’t already.

Man I was looking just for that!
I have 2 questions:
1) Does cockpit manage history too? Or does it show the usage from only when you open the webpage?
2) Why do you need to install the qemu-kvm? Do I need it even if I don't need to manage any virtual machines?

Jetzt mitmachen!
