      I won't sit here and dispute the right tool for the task mentality. There is always the 'case' of yes you can do it that way, but it's not recommended. I can use a pair of channel locks to turn a bolt, but likely it'll get chewed up. Yes - it WILL work.. but it's not the RIGHT tool for the task.

      Anyway - likely will just burn Fedora on a box and load Ubuntu, and determine my reshuffle later... The whole point for some of this was to reduce the PC systems. The only desktop suitable for VM is still rebooting on me,.. so it's slated for a full rebuild / replacement.

      Just do LXC or Docker/Podman. You don't need a full VM for it.

        or look at this
        https://fedora.pkgs.org/28/rpmfusion-nonfree-x86_64/unifi-5.7.23-1.fc28.x86_64.rpm.html

        Those packages often get behind.

        Latest one up to date below
        https://fedora.pkgs.org/28/rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-i386/unifi-5.9.29-1.fc28.i686.rpm.html

        That is Fedora 28. Definitely not up to date.

        https://fedora.pkgs.org/29/rpmfusion-nonfree-i386/unifi-5.9.29-1.fc29.i686.rpm.html

        Same for Fedora 29

              Ubuntu Server 16.04
              Controller is up as a sigh VM.

              Whole point of getting it off a VM is that the VM host hardware is sketchy... but alas... I did it anyway.

              Now,... dang it... the password I have isn't working, and the Mongo recovery isn't working. - new thread.

                Ubuntu 16.04? WTF? Why not 18.04 or 18.10 (is it out, i lose track because will Ubuntu...)?

                Also I know everything works perfect on Debian 9. I have a guide here for it even.

                  Because 16.04 is what Unifi states to use still.

                    Back to basics. Why are you trying to do this? Are you needing to change your WiFi right now?

                    If not, just delete it all and worry about it later. UniFi hardware does not have to check in to a controller to function.

                    Get your other stuff stable, then spin this up.

                      Follow up, controller is running again under Win10.

                      I’ll address a Linux system in the future at some point and move over so it can run full time.

                        Worth it if you have a hypervisor running somewhere with enough extra resources for it - otherwise, in a home environment - not worth it.
