Hi,

Problem like this is difficult to diagnose. Did you check CPU and memory load in Device Manager?

May be the problem is related to network configuration. I mean if web requests go by wrong routes. Please also check network adapters: do you have virtual adapters created by other applications?

Most of Linux users install Rapid SCADA on Debian or Ubuntu. If you have no special Linux experience, Windows is easier. Windows 10 is preferred.

Hi,

Agent was already installed.

but stll can’t connec’t to Web station (Server is unavailable)

You should start a new topic because this issue is not about installation.

[Mikhail]

Hi,

You should delete C:\SCADA\Projects and install only Administrator again. The other applications are installed.

[Mikhail]

Log files are C:\SCADA\ScadaServer\Log\ModRapidGate*.log

[Mikhail]

Hi,

Please find Rapid Gate manual here.

Hi,

Try installing the up to date version of KpMqtt.dll. May be it doesn’t fix the error, but the new version provides the detailed error message (link).

Does it shown even if your project is deployed on the same machine?

In windows there is the virtual keyboard, it works quite well, but it is not very dynamic with text boxes.

If switch Windows to tablet mode, the keyboard will show automatically.

The integration of the virtual keyboard within the data boxes in RapidScada would really be very good.
Just ideas of course, I understand that everything is a lot of work and time.

Virtual keyboard plugin is a good idea. Such specialized tasks usually are developed by a custom contract, and then we share it for everyone as a plugin.

Hi,

sudo mono ScadaAdmin.exe

It’s possible to run the Administrator app on Linux. But it has many restrictions because Mono Windows Forms are not really supported. And they have no future. I suggest editing projects on Windows and then upload to Linux.

Rapid SCADA 6 Administrator will be ported to .NET 5, so it will be impossible to run it on Linux. Of course, Server, Communicator and Webstation will work on Linux. There several way that are open to edit projects on Linux in the future:
1. Avoid editing projects on Linux ))
2. Microsoft wrote about merging WPF and Xamarin Forms. So when they do this, it would be possible to develop cross platform desktop Administrator.
3. Develop full featured web Administrator and deprecate the existing desktop Administrator. It requires a lot of efforts.
4. Develop lightweight web Administrator for professionals and keep existing desktop Administrator up to date.

Hi,

I agree that virtual keyboard would be useful. And some users asked about it. In my opinion, virtual keyboard should not be a part of a particular web application. Probably it should be a browser extension or a native application of an OS. For example, like keyboard in Android and Windows.

However, it’s also possible to develop a plugin for the Webstation app that implements a keyboard.

I know how to create new deployment profile, but set parameters correctly aren’t clearly.

If something doesn’t work, make screenshots of your deployment profile settings.

[Mikhail]

Hi,

In your project open Server – Common Parameters and update directories. You can click “Default for Linux” there.
Then use the above advice.
Do you know how to create a new deployment profile?

[Mikhail]

Good 🙂

If you use RAM disk for current data on Raspberry, it will not be saved on hardware reboot. If you write scripts for your solution, it would be good.
