I had a Ubiquiti UAP-AC-LITE show up from Amazon today. I got it physically set up and plugged into my dhcp server. Host name "klaatu", of course.
It lights up, gets an IP address, and responds to pings. That's nice. The software, on the other tentacle, is a train wreck. I built a VM with debian 9, one version the documentation says it works with. It installed this time, with one glitch: it insisted on "java8-runtime-headless". So just for the halibut, I installed "default-jre-headless" That worked. The software runs, according to "service unifi status". However, I cannot reach it with a web browser. It is not a firewall issue. I cannot find any instructions on bringing up the software. Unless someone has some good advice, I'm going to ship it back with some of what I said here and elsewhere, and order something else that does not require me to install a bunch of software. -- "When we talk of civilization, we are too apt to limit the meaning of the word to its mere embellishments, such as arts and sciences; but the true distinction between it and barbarism is, that the one presents a state of society under the protection of just and well-administered law, and the other is left to the chance government of brute force." - The Rev.
