CQRLOG repository update for Ubuntu 22.04

Are there plans to update the CQRLOG repository so that it can be used with Ubuntu 22.04 ("jammy")? Trying to use it currently produces the dreaded "Repository does not have a release file" error message.

Thanks.

Go to the bottom, the last 5

Go to the bottom, the last 5 dark lines copy paste them in your terminal one line at a time. If you already have CQRlog installed, if new install do the entire procedure
although this will need to be changed:
from this, sudo apt-get install mariadb-client-10.3 mariadb-server-10.3 libmariadb3 libssl-dev

to this: sudo apt-get install mariadb-client-10.6 mariadb-server-10.6 libmariadb3 libssl-dev

CQRLOG repository update for Ubuntu 22.04 "jammy"

Tom, thanks for the help. I was able to run those commands successfully. However, when I try to start CQRLOG, I get pop-up error messages complaining that "MySQL could not be started", which I don't understand, because the descriptions of CQRLOG say that it has an "embedded database" instead of using a separately installed database. Apparently I need to install either MySQL or mariadb, an open-source MySQL clone.

Do you happen to have a link to similar instructions for installing the required database? mariadb and mysql don't appear in Ubuntu's listing of software available for install through their normal method.

73,

CQRLOG repository update for Ubuntu 22.04

Tom, it seems that mariadb requires a library called libssl-devy (not libssl-dev, which is available) that is from a different distribution than Ubuntu. And this is not a forum for getting installation help, so thanks for what you passed along. Maybe I'll rethink the whole idea of trying to go with Ubuntu. Is there another Linux distribution in which CQRLOG will install easily without numerous errors or requiring a dozen other packages?

Hi!
Give a try to Fedora.
I use Fedora36 / LXDE desktop. Very light and without large bells and whistles.

You can load it from Fedora spins https://spins.fedoraproject.org
Spins can be started from CD or USB stick. Once you get it running, and see that it works, you can install it to HD from desktop icon.

Fedora has no LTS version. Version updates appear every year, but they have very well working version update procedure.
I use always one version older Fedora because with that most bugs are already fixed. Updating that once a year is enough to keep OS in supported versions list.

Same DB-Problem with Debian 12?

Hi there,
I just tried a new install on Debian 12 "bookworm".
The Error message when trying to create a log is: "
TMySQL57Connection : Error executing query: Table cqrlog_common/log_list is corrupted. Please drop the table and recreate.
"

I have mariadb-server and mariadb-client installed and the above tips do not help... as well as compiling v 2.6.0...

Any advice to dive deeper?
Regards, Klemens

Debug-Details are in attached file...

Hi!
If this is new install and there are no qsos in any log you could try to delete ~/.config/cqrlog folder.
That gives you a fresh new start. Then databases are recreated and should be clean. How ever if you still get same error it might indicate that you install source is defect.

Dear Saku,

Dear Saku,
I tried that already - I swear!..... Tried again and now it works! (As recommended in your Help section) Next steps now will be to import and re-setup stuff from old machine...
Thanks and sorry for the trouble.
