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 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…

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

I have Pulseway installed on a fresh Debian 9.1 box and receive the below error: pulseway[24336]: /usr/sbin/pulsewayd: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.0.9.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Any advice?

Hello, I've made a new fresh install on a Raspberry Pi 3. I've followed the instructions of the "Install and Setup Agents / Raspbian" page. As usual. Service does not start correctly. The syslog shows raspberryXyz pulseway[854]: /usr/sbin/pulsewayd: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Any hint to solve this problem? Thanks in advance. Best regards, Guy

Hi I can't get pulseway to connect to the android app when it's running on my ubuntu 18.04 server. It worked just fine until I updated to U 18.04. Has this occured to any one else? Is there an solution?

Anyone had any luck installing the agent in to a PFsense firewall? Tried with no luck, with my limited linux knowlage.

Hi, It seemed to be working until the 13th Oct (was it auto-upgraded? - the config.xml.sample has the same datestamp as the first failure. the 'my account' 'monitored systems' shows it last logged in as 4.5.3 ) Now I can't get beyond: pulseway: Configuration read successfully! pulseway: Got exception signal: 4 Originally this happened with the existing config.xml. I copied the config.xml.sample, added in my Account details and gradually changed "true"s to "false"s I can connect using the rest api I can't seem to find any clue as to what signal 4 is? Is there a debug option? Thanks,

How do I remove the 64bit agent from my linux vps server/host? I sucessfully installed it a couple months ago and its working fine, but I am going a different route now and need to remove it but I can't figure out how. Please advise. Thanks

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.

Hi guys, Has the Linux Client been updated yet for the new version of Pulseway? If not do we have an ETA on it? Cheers, Martin

Hi guys, I'm new to Pulseway ans i must say that it's a great software. I'm using the Ubuntu version. I'd like to monitor (and restart if necessary) my plex media server process. I can't figure out how the config.xml "services" section works. I'm using "sudo service plexmediaserver start" to start Plex ... Can anyone help me with that issue ? Thanks Best regards, Thibault.

Hey Guys, I am new to PC Monitor and Raspberry Pi, and I have run into some issues and I have some questions. I will start from the top. First, I am having issues with the RPI going offline. It seems to happen when I try accessing the RPI from the Iphone App (My main method). I have the RPI setup to ping a single device, and it seems that whenever I look at the ping responses on the iphone, the RPI drops offline completely. Usually after a while it comes back online. Today it actually went offline for a few hours. The only way I could get it back on was to restart the process. (It showed Failed When I checked the status of the process. Where do I go from here? Are the…

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?

Hi All, I am trying to install the agent on a Pi 3 with Raspbian Stretch Lite running. It looks like it has installed but its not showing up on the device list and the password in the config.xml does not get encrypted. I am a bit of a noob when it comes to all things Linux and I have just followed the website instructions. Has anybody else come across this? thanks Dave

Hi Here I'm new so please be kind. I have gone trough the installation process outlined in a YouTube video to install the Slackware variant of pulseway onto Unraid. Unraid = latest RC2 6.something. By the error I understand something is missing. Error -:- /etc/pulseway# /etc/rc.d/rc.pulseway start Starting Pulseway Daemon ... /usr/sbin/pulsewayd: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.0.9.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Error! In the YouTube video it all works fine, obviously the Linux dependencies are met in the Video. It would seem that a library is missing. YouTube Video -:-…
