For any others having the same trouble I had, the Linux agent runs the miner software using the screen utility, which isn't installed by default in Ubuntu. Just do
and you should be good to go.
Has anyone had luck with the remote agent for Linux? I installed the agent on a fresh Ubuntu 18.04 install but I'm having some trouble getting a miner to start.
Downloaded and installed according to the docs at
https://support.awesomeminer.com/support/solutions/articles/35000086210-remote-agent-for-linuxException: installed in /usr/local/awesomeminer-remoteagent/ and updated awesome.service accordingly.
Agent starts and can be seen by my server, but starting any mining software fails. Diagnostics shows Failed to start miner process: No such file or directory (full output pasted below). It looks like the miner is being downloaded to an absolute path (/AwesomeMinerService/t-rex-0.5.6-linux-cuda9.1_1/) but the agent is looking for it using a relative path.
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
