Hi Joe, If I understand properly, I need an identical platform to create the binary. There aren't premade binaries available for me to use. The platform where I got stuck was a brand new "just out of the box" VPS. I don't have another. And even if I made another, it would presumably stick at the same place.
So how would I get the binaries that I need to install?
