How to install eve-ng on digitalocean

Raw

eve-ng.md

Installing eve-ng on digitalocean

Create an Ubuntu 16.04 Droplet
Set a root passwd

passwd root

Remove cloud-init

apt-get remove cloud-init

Configure the hostname

echo "eve-ng" > /etc/hostname
sed -i '/127.0.0.1 localhost/i127.0.0.1 eve-ng.test.com eve-ng' /etc/hosts

Reconfigure kernel boot options

sed -i 's/^GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="/&net.ifnames=0 noquiet /' /etc/default/grub
update-grub

Reboot

reboot

Add the eve-ng repo and install

wget -O - http://www.eve-ng.net/repo/[email protected] | apt-key add - # Blergh
apt-add-repository "deb [arch=amd64] http://www.eve-ng.net/repo xenial main"
apt-get update
DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y eve-ng

eve-ng-guacamole_2.0.3-87_amd64.deb failed for some reason (something about creating the database). So fix/fiddle around it:

apt-get install -f
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install eve-ng

You should now be able to login with admin:eve as credentials with HTTP on port 80.

I am sorry to hear that these instructions are no longer working for you.

It has been a long time since I have used eve-ng myself, so I cannot really help you here.

If you find out how to resolve this problem, let me know and I will update the instructions.

If someone still comes to this page. Please check the OS version support too. Recently I had this issue when working on Ubuntu 22.04 which is not supported as we speak. Rest command still work. Now there is easier option install is
wget -O - https://www.eve-ng.net/focal/install-eve.sh | bash -i
