Hi all,

Is anyone able to get Obico set up self-hosted? I’ve tried pairing, and also tried re-running `install.sh` manually, but it seems the host OS on these things is already out of date and no longer supported:

```  
Hit:1 Index of /debian bullseye InRelease  
Hit:2 Index of /debian bullseye-updates InRelease  
Ign:3 Index of /debian bullseye-backports InRelease  
Hit:4 Index of /debian-security bullseye-security InRelease  
Err:5 Index of /debian bullseye-backports Release  
404 Not Found [IP: 151.101.46.132 80]  
Reading package lists… Done  
E: The repository ‘Index of /debian bullseye-backports Release’ no longer has a Release file.  
N: Updating from such a repository can’t be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.  
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.  
```

How do I get this working?

I’m very familiar with that, running it self-hosted on Vorons. The problem isn’t the self-hosting, it’s the OS on the SV08 Max being outdated, and not being able to run the scripts from Obico.

Not sure if you ever got this resolved but here’s the fix:

Modify `/etc/apt/sources.list` and change the `bullseye-backports` line to point to [archive.debian.org](http://archive.debian.org) instead of [deb.debian.org](http://deb.debian.org).

Then do a git pull on `moonraker-obico` directory, run `install.sh` as you would normally.

Update `~/printer_data/config/moonraker-obico.cfg`

`Under the [server] section:`  
`url = <your obico instance>`

`Under the [webcam] Section:`  
`stream_url = http://127.0.0.1/webcam?action=stream`  
`snapshot_url = http://127.0.0.1/webcam?action=snapshot`  
(Fixes the webcam)

Restart obico with `systemctl restart moonraker-obico`

Should be g2g after that.

Late to the party, but I managed to get my max/obico “fixed” today. I’m still using the stock sovol firmware and went to make my own obico server. Got it all working except the webcam. There was no live feed. Everything was really straightforward though otherwise. Latest obico docker container for windows.. set some ip addresses and controls worked. Then spend 16 hrs with AI trying to figure out why the webcam would work. Mostly cause I told it i didn’t want to screw with the printer. (Reinstalling a docker container is much easier than fixing a broken printer firmware). Anyway. IT finally convinced me to ssh into the printer and we discovered Janus won’t start. The code was looking for a folder that didn’t exist. It defines the CB1 mainboard as “other” and looks for the na.debian folder which isn’t present on the max. We did some tests and found that the MKS branch that is present runs on the cb1 and all it’s dependencies were present. So we did a symlink to that directory and Janus now loads up and I get live web feed on my local server.

Hopefully smart people than I can figure out how to take this and make a permanent fix for it.
