Hi All,

 

I am trying to get an omada controller setup on a virtual box ubuntu machine which I want to later move to my NAS box and leave running.

 

I am following the guide here

https://community.tp-link.com/en/business/forum/topic/578320

 

but have got stuck on installing, libssl1.1 - which seems to be obselete from what I can gather. 

 

Any help sorting this would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

R

I'm trying to install on ubuntu 22.04. Thought it might work but fails on first command, attempting to install Mongodb. "Package mongodb is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source" R

@KimcheeGUN thanks for the link. Got it working, unfortunately I can't seem to post the script I have followed, even after updating the urls as you have done?

 

so it is working with ubuntu 22.04, omada controller version 5.9.31

OK, managed to get this to post,

 

I'm sure you can all work out how to reserve the bits in the script to make it work. Credit to all references used to make this work.

Hope it helps someone else.

 

Unfortuantely for me the plan was to upload the VM to my Terra-Master NAS, this failed, so now need to think about another solution.

  @RRM 

 

Thanks so much for this :)

 

Did you get an Intel or ARM based NAS box from Terra-Master?

 

If your box supports Docker, then go that route and just use mbentley's Omada Controller docker image. You can migrate your controller too.

 

This has worked for me on both a Synology NAS and Raspberry Pi clone.
