Failed to install thin-edge.io

[Jack-Moss]

Describe the bug Hi there, this is just following the instructions on https://cumulocity.com/guides/device-integration/integration-tutorials/

To Reproduce I am using a pi zero w 2 an this command: curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/thin-edge/thin-edge.io/main/get-thin-edge_io.sh | sudo sh -s

Thanks @Jack-Moss, we'll have to update the instructions referenced from the Cumulocity IoT docs, so the install instructions on the referenced page are no longer correct (and are the root cause for the error that you are experiencing).

There is a new(ish) install script to install via our official linux packages hosted on Cloudsmith.io, you can check out the installation instructions here:

https://thin-edge.github.io/thin-edge.io/install/

In addition, I would follow the "Getting started guide" from the project's documentation:

https://thin-edge.github.io/thin-edge.io/start/connect-c8y/

But in general, if you run into any unexpected errors, then it is always good to have a look at the project's official documentation page, as it is always in sync with the project as the documentation is hosted next to the code. The pages hosted on under the Cumulocity IoT domain unfortunately aren't automatically synced at this point in time.

@Jack-Moss note I just cleaned up the ticket description to put the information in code blocks so it is easier to read...You can add code block by using the following markdown:

my error log output which will be rendered in a fenced code block...

I've create a ticket to track the updating of the Cumulocity IoT tutorial page. https://github.com/thin-edge/thin-edge.io/issues/2604

@Jack-Moss Please let us know if the install instructions on the project's documentation page work for you.

Closing. Please reopen the ticket if the above suggestion does not work.
