Linux Installation — DataTalk Docs

DataTalk Manager can be installed on Ubuntu, Debian, and other compatible 64-bit Linux distributions. No graphical interface is required — both the manager and the runtime are fully web-based, accessible from any browser.

Requirements

OS: Ubuntu 20.04+ or Debian 11+ (64-bit)
Virtualization: enabled in BIOS/UEFI or VM settings
Docker Engine: must be installed and running before the DataTalk installer is run
Ports: HTTP 80 and HTTPS 443 by default
Permissions: sudo access required during installation

Docker not installed yet?

Use the official helper script to install Docker Engine on Ubuntu/Debian before proceeding:

curl -fsSL https://myscada.org/downloads/Manager_app/install_docker.sh -o install_docker.sh
sudo chmod +x install_docker.sh
sudo ./install_docker.sh

Step-by-step installation

Linux — .sh installer

Ubuntu · Debian · 64-bit

Download

Open a terminal in the Downloads folder

Navigate to the directory where the .sh installer was saved — typically ~/Downloads:

cd ~/Downloads

Make the installer executable

Replace X.X_XXXXXX with the actual version string from the filename. You can type DataTalk and press Tab to autocomplete:

sudo chmod +x ./DataTalkManager_X.X_XXXXXX_x64.sh

Run the installer

Start the installation with sudo:

sudo ./DataTalkManager_X.X_XXXXXX_x64.sh

Follow the on-screen prompts to choose installation directories and configure ports.

Reboot the device

After installation completes, reboot to finish the setup:

sudo reboot

Open DataTalk Manager in a browser

After reboot, the DataTalk Manager web interface is available on port 34023:

Same machine — http://127.0.0.1:34023

Other device on network — http://<device-ip>:34023

Running without a desktop environment?

DataTalk Manager works fully on headless servers — the web UI is accessible from any device on the same network via http://<server-ip>:34023.
