It seems that the webUI hasnt been updated to use libnode108 yet and still calls on files from libnode72

Does anyone know how i can overcome this issue

Do what it is asking and see
systemctl status mineos.service and journalctl -xeu mineos.service for details.

also you can try systemctl daemon-reload but do the other ones first and see what it tells you.

and reload doesnt help

Find out why this service is not starting and also maybe looking in your unit files but probably not necessary just see why js is not starting.

systemctl status service.js

tried restarting service and got this
sudo node service.js restart

mineos daemon is not running
Starting mineos daemon...
mineos daemon failed to start: Module '/usr/games/minecraft/webui.js' stopped unexpected

WebUI is complaining about a missing file called libnode.so.72 which i can install libnode72 because libnode108 is installed and even with that uninstalled it says that libnode72 is obsolete.

systemctl status mineos
systemctl start mineos

Obsolete means that your sources are no longer providing that package you can add a repo that contains libnode72 to your sources file.

Outside of this adding older sources is potential grounds for problems. I am also not to sure of any other means here without trying to look at a live install and try to work it out and step through the sequence of it which i cannot do atm.

Hopefully someone else can chime in.

Also avoiding OS install :grin:

Could a reinstall of MineOS work if so how can I do this.

Um i just removed /usr/games/minecraft and reinstalled npm and all that i think its fine now.
