Jerry, do you normally have to run INDI Web with root? I know you have this setup where your python and your pip are in two different places, you need root to run it?

Let me check with Jasem about this. I don't think INDI, indiweb, or indiwebmanagerapp should need to be run as root.

Maybe I did an install of one of the packages? indiweb? as root when it shouldn't have been?

that is what I expect happened. Perhaps the solution is to uninstall it using pip3 as root and then install it using pip3 as yourself?

Its interesting that I didn't know you were running as root until you tried to open a browser window as root. Perhaps I should add a warning for that.

Looking back through what you posted, I see that you did this:

sudo -H pip3 install indiweb

It probably should have just been this:

pip3 install indiweb

to install as yourself.

Although also if you are running indiwebmanagerapp as root, it probably would install indiweb as root too.

Ok I added a check and a warning message for running the program as root. It won't prevent you from doing it, but it will warn you about issues.

Ok I went to version 0.9 and made a release. For the OS X version you can go here :

github.com/rlancaste/INDIWebManagerApp/releases/tag/0.9

For the Linux version it is in the nightly ppa, or the source code is on git.


Please test again,

Thanks !

Now i know why it keeps OFFLINE. This is because I let another Indi Webmanager continue to run. After I turn off the other instance, your indi web manager app start to ONLINE!

Tom

Yes that makes sense Tom.

So the other INDI webmanager was running when you started INDI Webmanager app?

Did it give you the option to shut down the other one and then you said no?

Yes, it did. Now my question is, how to determine whether the Auto Launch Manager always auto startup after system reboot?
