Install OMV5 on Debian 10 (Buster) OMV 5.x (development)

  • openmediavault must be adapted to Debian Buster first

    Installation went further but failed in the end. I guess it's rather useless to post exact messages but here they are:


    So how to proceed? Do you want me to try it on Stretch with self-built Samba 4.9 instead? Or is it worth waiting?

    The package is already in the OMV repo, but this does not help, openmediavault must be adapted to Debian Buster first.

    The version of php-pam in the repo is compiled for php 7.0 in stretch. I had recompiled it for php 7.3 on buster a while back. So, I was just providing that package. I haven't tried omv 5.x on buster since then.

    Compiling only isn’t enough, you need to adapt various files because the install paths have been changed. :-/

    It isn't enough but it was the first step that I had to do. When I was testing, I did change the paths. I stopped when I ran into the salt package issues.

  • Start omv-engined in foreground and debug mode

    Thanks for the reminder (totally forgot about it). Yes, ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pam':

  • Just for the record my testing environment and how to get there (2019/02/28).


    I grabbed firmware-buster-DI-alpha5-amd64-netinst.iso as a basis installed in VMWare (2 vCPUs, 4 GB RAM, 16 GB OS disk with defaults, 4TB for data shares, 2 for ext4 and 2 for btrfs). While installing I unchecked desktop environment and print server to get a clean base system. For convenience I installed sudo openssh-server gnupg2 (though gnupg is needed for the apt-key task below).


    And then I simply followed the instructions @votdev shared already (for Stretch but they work with Buster now too):


    Warning: all of the above is for developers/testers only. No need for user tests at the moment (quite counterproductive right now).

    what date stimate @votdev that an ISO is ready for download and do general testing?

    It shouldn't be before Debian 10 is released. What do you want to test?

    stability and pluging compatibility.

    Stability of a beta OS? None of the omv-extras plugins are ported yet. So, you can't really test those.
