I'm getting a bit desperate about getting CumulusMX to run on Ubuntu 24.04. I have previously managed to get it to function properly on Debian system, but I have since then, for a number of reasons, reinstalled my server completely. Despite following the instructions to the letter, I'm now running into an annoying problem, namely Mono doesn't seem to recognise the executables as valid CIL image.

Now, I do understand that I may have missed something quite trivial here, but after tracing every step back, I still cannot find the cause of this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Install dotnet

Code: Select all

apt install dotnet-sdk-8.0
you do not need mono with CMX v4

Install MX as a service with

Code: Select all

dotnet CumulusMX.dll -install -user cmx
cmx being the name of the user, this maybe something else in your case.

Thank you very much. This did produce some results, but I still don't seem to be able to actually start the service. The directory is included in the $PATH-variable, but I still get the error message CumulusMX.service isn't found.

You must sudo the install command. See if that makes a difference.

Also, Linux is case sensitive so CumulusMX.service != cumulusmx.service.
