EVE CE 6.2.0-4 - No static IP and no html5 console

Post by bbahes » Wed Jul 09, 2025 9:31 pm

Hi!

I just installed EVE Community Edition Version 6.2.0-4 on VMWare Workstation 17.6.2. using ISO and having two problems:

1. I'm not able to set static IP via /opt/ovf/ovfconfig.sh (This is initial wizard for IP configuration)
If i delete /opt/ovf/.configured I can repeat running script again to configure interface.
This time I select DHCP and interface receives IP from DHCP server in LAN.

2. With IP address received by DHCP, I can access http://<IP_ADDRESS>, but problem is if I select "html5 console". It won't login.

Is there OVF appliance somewhere available for download? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for suggestions!

Sorry for late reply...but I reinstalled it few times, on VMWare and Oracle VirtualBox, on different machines in network and result was same.
The only thing that now works is html5 console. I've left dhcp as I need to work on some labs. Maybe some future patches will solve this issue.

I do have one more query, not related to these problems, but for that I'll join on webchat to ask.

Thanks!
