In this article we will show how to install EasyIoT server to Raspberry Pi. We need Raspberry Pi with fresh Raspbian installation.

Hardware

Picture shows how we connect NRF24L01+ to Raspberry Pi. We connect NRF24L01+ to Raspberry Pi only if we use MySensors driver.

Raspbery Pi NRF24L01+ connection

Software installation

1. Enable SPI.

sudo raspi-config

Then go to 8 - advanced ptions, A5 SPI, Yes

2. Install mono

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get upgrade

sudo apt-get install mono-complete

3. (optional) Create certificate – only if you are using SSL connection

In case above we use port 1301 for ssl communication.

makecert -r -n "CN=IoT CA" -sv root.key root.cer

certmgr --add -c Trust root.cer

makecert -iv root.key -ic root.cer -eku 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.1 -n "CN=raspberry" -p12 raspberry.p12 s3kr3t

sudo httpcfg -add -port 1301 -p12 raspberry.p12 -pwd s3kr3t

sudo cp root.cer /etc/ssl/certs

sudo cp root.key /etc/ssl/private

sudo cp raspberry.p12 /etc/ssl/private

4. Install EasyIoT server

Go to download page and copy latest EasyIoT server instalation in to /home/easyiot folder.

5. Set folder permissions

cd /home/easyiot

sudo chown -R root log

sudo chmod -R 644 log

sudo chown -R root config

sudo chmod -R 644 config

5. Run EasyIoT server

sudo mono EasyIoT.exe

You should see something like this:

EasyIoT server console

In web browser on computer enter Raspberry Pi address.

Username: admin

Password:test

EasyIoT server

Next time we will se how to run EasyIoT server in background.

Hello!
The Raspberry Pi disk image file (Raspberry PI and Raspberry Pi 2) is corrupted. I can not disagree, someone could help me!

Quoting Rado:

Today I EasyIoT Server system was installed on Rasperry Pi 2 from IMG. All working ok only wifi doest't work due to missing driver rtl8188eufw.bin. So I did sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade, I get the appropriate driver. Now, wifi works, but the server can not be accessed through wifi. Where is the problem?
Or should you where to enter the SSL key for wifi?

Hi rado, you should be able to connect with you Server in the rpi without any configuration. Are you sure the wifi it's working rigth? Can you do a ping e.g. www.google.com? Can you do a ping from another machine to your rpi? Are your Easy Server starting on boot?

Why you do not download here working image from Easyiot server? All works prefect.

Indeed, I saw it afterwards,it working o.k. thanks

I have rev.1 and i connect nrf24l01+ like this
https://rlogiacco.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/raspi-nrf241.png This is right? If i execute sudo mono EasyIoT.exe
015-12-15T20:44:11.9293270+00:00 INFO System System started

I install raspbian after that all like this top of page. Catalog was right /home/pi/easyiot.
If you can repair some errors.
My nrf24l01 not works and mysensors drivers in easyiot i cant configure. Where is error ?

I download image from this and all working very good.

Just started with IOT-Playground on Raspbian Lite on the RPI, I found that the example is not entirely correct, I hat to add rights and to add https, maybe because of new version Raspbian.

At this link serpaux.fr/download/ you will find the working version for a limited time, I hope the administrator will add it on this fabulous site. By the way, the start of the service won't work, I only got the respons 'Starting easyiot (via systemctl): easyiot.service.' but no page in the browser.
