Linux

Supported Linux Distributions Debian based: Debian 6 or newer and Ubuntu 12.04 or newer RPM based: CentOS 6 or newer, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 or newer, Oracle Linux 6 or newer, Fedora 16 or newer Choosing the right package First step when installing is to choose the right package from http://www.pulseway.com/downloads. You should consider your Linux distribution (debian or rpm based) and if you have a 32 or 64 bit machine. To determine the latest use the Linux command: uname -m If the result of this command is something like i386,i586 or i686 then it's a 32bit machine if it's x86_64 then it's a 64bit machine. Installing Now , that you have downloaded t…

In order to manually upgrade the Pulseway agent to the latest version, the old version need to be removed first: rpm -e pcmonitor or dpkg --remove pcmonitor Check if pcmonitord process is still running: ps auxw | grep pcmonitord Kill the process if it is still running: killall pcmonitord Install the new version: rpm -Uhv pulseway_xXX.rpm or dpkg -i pulseway_xXX.deb Start the pulseway service: /etc/init.d/pulseway start

In order to configure a Linux machine you have to edit the /etc/pulseway/config.xml file. Here's a sample configuration: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <config xmlns="http://www.pulseway.com/linuxconfig"> <!--Pulseway Linux Monitoring Agent - pulseway.com --> <!--Account Information - Username: your Pulseway username - Password: your Pulseway password (the plain password will be automatically encrypted the next time the Pulseway service starts) - UseCustomServer: enable this option only if you have a dedicated Enterprise Server assigned to your account - CustomServerAddress: your Enterprise Server address--> &lt…

So, I looked around the forums a little bit to see if there was anything related to this issue and didn't have much luck. I built a new Gentoo box recently and decided to put pc monitor on it. I emerged rpm and rpm'd the rpm and it created the directory in my /etc and installed correctly (supposedly). I changed the config.xml.sample to config.xml and made the necessary changes. I believe that it is configured correctly and should be working properly but as I went to start the service with /etc/init.d/pcmonitor start I get "pcmonitor could not be found". Sure enough when I cd to that directory there is no pcmonitor, just pcmonitor.suse and another pcmonitor.<other…

My homeserver is running a pulseway agent and pihole (running dnsmasq) on debian testing. Pihole shows every 16 seconds a CNAME call of the homeserver to ws5.pulseway.com. All my other computers with a pulseway agent (Windows-10) don't call this much. My question is, how can I change my configuration to bring back the amount of calls.

Hi, I am on trial of pulseway. I notice that I wasn't able to install pulseway agent for xenserver 6.5. On this version xenserver is now using 64bit but they're still using centos 5 (not 6) for their base system. Because of this I wasn't able to install the 64bit agent as it requires dependencies from centos 6 which doesn't exists on centos5. Is there a solution for this? Thanks

Hi there, I have been using Pulseway for some months now and everything was good until yesterday when I rebooted the machine the agent is running on. This machine went throught Linux updates some days before so I think this is related. What I experience is that when the service starts, reads the configuration, but after a second the daemon exits with code 11 as you can see below. ● pulseway.service - Remotely Monitor and Control IT Systems Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/pulseway.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: signal) since Sat 2019-08-03 23:42:38 WEST; 1s ago Process: 23493 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/pulsewayd --…

On my two home Ubuntu 12.04 boxes (VMs under esxi 5.1), the agent runs great. (Also seeing the issue on these servers as well, see post below) On the server I lease, I cant get it to stay alive. I am seeing these errors: user@server:/var/log$ sudo cat syslog | grep pcmonitor Jan 13 22:38:51 server pcmonitor: *** glibc detected *** /usr/sbin/pcmonitord: double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x0000000000d07ea0 *** Jan 13 22:40:03 server pcmonitor: Error while registering computer:Empty response user@server:/var/log$ date Mon Jan 13 22:42:45 EST 2014 user@server:/var/log$ sudo cat syslog.1 | grep pcmonitor Jan 12 13:21:47 server pcmonitor: Received request Resume…

hello does pulseway agent work on raspberry pi 4 (using debian buster arm64) ? thanks.

Hi, I activated a trial today, and I'm trying to install a linux agent to see how it works. After installing the package, I can't seem to activate the agent, it get this error in the syslog MM.Monitor.WebService.InvalidAccountException: Invalid username and/or password (295).#015#012 at MM.Monitor.WebService.Data.#002(Account #002, String #003, String #005, String #010, String #006, Boolean #016, String #017, Boolean #002"#012Detail: [no detail] I've tried on 2 machines, both debian 10, both webservers hosted on aws. the username and password I am using are those I set up for the access to the web administration console.

Any idea on when the Arch package will be available? I've been using the older Java based install, but that's stopped working for some reason. I keep getting: "ERROR - Error registering computer : javax.net.ssl.SSLException: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unexpected error: java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException: the trustAnchors parameter must be non-empty" trying to start pulseway on my new install.

Seems like the package for archlinux is broken. The package manger will refuse to install binaries outside of bin, and will not follow symbolic links. I searched the forum recommending to use the --force option, but this option has also been deprecated in favor of the --overwrite flag, which does not resolve the issue with your packaging. Can we get an updated package, please?

Hi Wondering if anyone has managed to get one of the UNIX/Linux agents to install on one of these NAS units? The RPM install looks like it should work but rpm errors with no gzip installed. Looks like it may need a custom agent package created in .APK to suit Asustor ADM v2 Cheers

Is there a way to have the service auto start in linux? anyone try this? I am running fedora . .

Hello, For certificate checking I've noticed /var/log/messages is being spammed with the following (real domain removed): Jul 2 08:17:07 streamserver pulseway: Check SSL certificate: Identity for xxx.xxx not verified.

Hey, I use PCmonitor, I mean now is Pulseway (terrible name btw ) for 2 years ? More less. I had only one time configure config and it was on fedora 17 , config of PCmonitor. I had to make clean install of Fedora 20 so it's about time to reinstall old PCmonitor to pulseway. So I did. It should be easy but.. I quess it's not. I configure whole config, add username and password usually stuff, started the service systemctl start pulseway.service chkconfig pulseway on .. and? Nothing. I don't see my computer in my account any of my smartphone.. what could be the problem?

Seems my server can't connect to ws0 thru the pulseway client, no, it is not a DNS or Internet error, the server in question can successfully ping the server. pulseway: Error while registering online:SOAP 1.1 fault SOAP-ENV:Server[no subcode]#012"No route to host"#012Detail: connect failed in tcp_connect() pulseway: Error while registering computer:SOAP 1.1 fault SOAP-ENV:Server[no subcode]#012"No route to host"#012Detail: connect failed in tcp_connect() These are the two errors I get in syslog.

Hi, installed x86_64 pcmonitor service on Centos 6.5 (Xen VPS) but on trying to start the service I am getting [root@vps1 ~]# tail /var/log/messages Dec 31 08:41:15 vps1 pcmonitor: Got exception signal: 11 Dec 31 08:41:15 vps1 kernel: pcmonitord[1224]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f9b089ce312 sp 00007f9b074e0f38 error 4 in libc-2.12.so[7f9b0889a000+18b000] from /var/log/messages.

Hi guys 2 new CentOS 6.7 64 bit installations, all works as expected and the agent does its job well however, once machine restarts, agent doesn't start automatically. We need to force it by: /etc/init.d/pulseway start The get around the problem we tried: chkconfig --add pulseway and error comes up: service pulseway does not support chkconfig Any ideas please?
