Where are the actual installation instructions?

[Ron Parker]

I sort of fumbled around and got the TriggerCMD agent installed, but service status still says "failed". I found a command line command to access the agent, but it asks for a "token", and I realized I haven't a clue as to how to configure this thing or access it.

I clicked in "Installation" forum, but I can only find a ton of posts about different types of installs. I am installing on Centos 7 system. Can someone help me get past this "failed" problem and point me to clear install and config instructions?

Thanks!

OK, I have made a little progress. I found my token, entered it from the GUI, purchased a subscription, and now I can see my computer at: https://www.triggercmd.com/user/computer/list

However, when trying to create a zap using TriggerCMD, still getting "The trigger could not be sent to TRIGGERcmd" error. It's probably because I'm missing something in the instructions -- because I can't find them!!!

[Ron Parker]

Well, without instructions, I figured it out.

First, I was getting the "trigger could not be sent" error because I failed to select a trigger in the first place.

Second, I needed to get to the gui command editor, which is this teeny-tiny red box at the top right hand corner of my screen. But, I found it

Added a command with parameters. Tested it. It works.

We are rocking now.

@Ron-Parker, I'm glad you figured it out, but you're right, I see I have Ubuntu Linux instructions for the .deb file install, but none for installing the .rpm on Redhat/Centos/Fedora type Linux OS's. I'll correct that soon. Thank you for pointing this out.

All I found were these instructions for upgrading it.

I think I should have an index page that lists each OS with links to installation instructions, similar to the trigger methods page to make them easy to find.
