I’ve taken a look for similar issues to this, but I couldn’t find anything related.
I am trying to install the most recent version of MiAB on Ubuntu 18.04.01 but when I run the installation command the setup runs until it gets to “Initializing system random number generator…” the setup stops with no warning and just brings up the command prompt.
I am not very familiar with the linux terminal so I am learning this as I go but I do not know how I can check the installation logs.
What I can tell you so far:
This is a clean installation
I have attempted to run the "Curl’ command several times already to redownload the setup files
I have attempted to run “mailinabox” as sudo multiple times
I have restarted the machine several times after every install attempt.
box661vgsnet@box:~$ curl -s mailinabox.email/setup.sh | sudo -E bash
