      MongoDB is not available in Fedora 30 repo anymore?

      The MeshCentral guide Specifically says to use the mongo specific repo. I linked that in my Fedora guide the other day.

        I'm using the Vultr instance with 1GB RAM and 25GB SSD, with Ubuntu 18.10 and with only 8 agent sessions connected, RAM usage is at 62 Mb free, 983 Mb total.

        Is this normal?

          Yup, that's normal. Agents really use just about no RAM. Doesn't change as you go to hundreds of agents. At least not for us.

              This is what I have on a 19.04 install...

              119 Mb free, 983 Mb total

              I think 19.04 is a little lighter than 18.04, so not surprised.

                  You are trying to run something from your home directory for your user. Try installing under /opt as root.

                    @scottalanmiller not that i know of (remember, I don't use or care for linux, but will use it if need).. I only use this for MC. I followed the directions for auto start I believe from the MC website.. I'll try find that.

                    All other updates went without issues. Just this last one.

                      Try re-running your NPM update manually.

                              @smartkid808 you need to run that in the location where MeshCentral is installed.

                                @scottalanmiller Not sure if this is the right location, I followed the steps in the install manual during initial install.. But I assume its this location " ./node_modules/meshcentral"

                                I switch to that directory and then get these errors

                                54d87c1f-2848-4fe0-98d3-c080b34e99c9-image.png

                                  @smartkid808 that's a relative location, relative to where you are at the time. Do this...

                                  find / -name meshcentral

                                    It's no different than on Windows, if you don't start at the root (like c:) when doing something, it is relative to where you are. But it is way simpler than Windows because everything starts from the central root and you don't have separate roots for each physical device.
