[BUG] Web UI unavailable after fresh install, Ubuntu 24.04, Linux Integration

[TheophileDiot]

Hi @mrUlrik, thank you for opening this issue. What python version are you using ?

[TheophileDiot]

Please note that Ubuntu 24.04 is not yet completely supported, as we haven't run tests on it as of now. However, we'll look into it. Thank you again for raising this issue; it will likely help narrow down potential problems we may face in the near future.

It looks like Ubuntu 24.04 comes with Python 3.12.3. I attempted to install the python3-regex package which didn't change the situation. That led me to dig into the folder of the file producing that error message which seems to contain a binary itself.

I've compiled BunkerWeb for Ubuntu 24.04 and established somewhat official support. It will be made available once the next development workflow successfully passes all tests.
Currently, we are encountering some issues with the UI automated tests.
I'll keep you updated on its availability so that you can test it in an experimental but supported environment. 😊

Awesome! I'm happy to help!

Alright, there's now a dev version of BunkerWeb available on Ubuntu 24.04 (x86_64) !

Alas, I am not familiar with building deb packages to fix what appears to be quite a simple problem.

Selecting previously unselected package libpcre3:amd64.
Preparing to unpack .../24-libpcre3_2%3a8.39-15build1_amd64.deb ...
Unpacking libpcre3:amd64 (2:8.39-15build1) ...

I get the same issue when attempting to dpkg -i the deb linked on the page.

~$ sudo -E dpkg -i bunkerweb_dev_amd64.deb
dpkg: error processing archive bunkerweb_dev_amd64.deb (--install):

Hello @mrUlrik,

Since the dev version is not something standard when using apt/dpkg you will need to disable version checks :
echo "force-bad-version" | sudo tee -a /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg

By the way we also pushed a testing version with ready to use packages. Don't hesitate to test it.

Hello @mrUlrik,

Ubuntu 24.04 should be working with the 1.5.7 version : https://docs.bunkerweb.io/1.5.7/
