I got it working (but only 1 time) …
I could access the config page from my LAN, but after rebooting the Pi it seems to be stuck in a “restart job” loop

  • what am I doing wrong ?
  • and also : how can I get it to completely start itself upon boot (e.g. in case of power failure) ?

Thanks

I got it working using snap, following the instructions of Goncezilla Matt, …but only 1 time …
I could access the config page from my LAN, but after rebooting the Pi it seems to be stuck in a “restart job” loop
