Errors in "How to install Omada SDN controller on Linux system (above Controller 5.0.29)" artikel
Reference: "How to install Omada SDN controller on Linux system (above Controller 5.0.29)" article here https://www.tp-link.com/de/support/faq/3272/
The article contains two errors:
Incorrect syntax for dpkg command
The article states to install Omada SDN without dependcies to use: `sudo dpkg --ignore-depends=jsvc –i Omada_SDN_Controller_v5.x.x_Linux_x64.deb`
This command is not correct it must be:
`sudo dpkg -i --ignore-depends=jsvc Omada_SDN_Controller_v5.x.x_Linux_x64.deb`
The action must come before the options.
Missing command for JSVC installation
The article states to do:
wget https://dlcdn.apache.org/commons/daemon/source/commons-daemon-1.3.1-src.tar.gz cd commons-daemon-1.3.1-src/src/native/unix sh support/buildconf.sh
There is a command missing to untar the downloaded file, the correct steps are:
wget https://dlcdn.apache.org/commons/daemon/source/commons-daemon-1.3.1-src.tar.gz tar -xvf commons-daemon-1.3.1-src.tar.gz cd commons-daemon-1.3.1-src/src/native/unix sh support/buildconf.sh
Maybe this saves someone some time when going through this and I hope TP-Link could update the article.
