Unable to access Cockpit Web Admin Interface

App_rpt-users

Hi, first build here and still working out some bugs. Installed debian12 on miniPC. I’m following the steps and it says I should be able to access Cockpit to control things but the web page won’t load.

I am able to run sudo asl-menu which allowed me to set things up and see the menus.

When I try to browse to https://debian.local:9090/ the page never loads. I tried replacing debian with my ip address and no luck there either.

I checked that my host name is correct by typing “hostname” in terminal and got this

root@debian:/home/gf# hostname
debian

Am I missing something???

Hi!

You will need to install cockpit separately as it is not included with debian image. It is only on raspberry pi by default.

Go to Running Cockpit — Cockpit Project and follow instructions there. Then you should get access to it.

OK that makes sense. I’m not good with the command line so I think I will just skip installing it :joy:

It is very simple, even I can do it :laughing: To install cockpit, just type sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get install cockpit.

Actually I think it will do you good if you install it especially if you are not good with the command line haha. Otherwise everything will be CLI based. I personally use sudo asl-menu for pretty much everything though as it is very straight forward and you dont have to keep track of file paths.

Wow amazing it was that easy. I got it installed.

Now I realize that there is system modules that have failed to load and I have no idea how to fix it. I’ve tried restarting and that doesn’t do it.

Errors are
kmod
system-modules-load

both fail to load - any ideas would be helpful?

I am not sure about that one. Best place would be to check debian or cockpit forums for that as I think it might not be related to app_rpt and allstar.

Good luck!

Don’t get too caught up in “errors” in Cockpit. There are a lot of system services running that may have “errors” from time to time that you don’t care about.
