[Solved] Unable to load configuration file
Posted: 28 Aug 2016, 13:57
Hello,
i'm trying to install Porteus Kiosk in some computers in my school. I need only Chrome ad a white list of 3/4 URLs, not more. I tried to install a local environment in an USB stick and it works well. I would like to load a configuration file, so if in future i will need to change an URL, i can do only once.
This is my configuration file (txt. ANSI):
managed_bookmarks=http://www.istruzione.gov.it http://www.miur.it
homepage=http://www.istruzione.gov.it
hostname=kiosk_001
allow_icmp_protocol=yes
primary_keyboard_layout=it
right_mouse_click=yes
shutdown_combination=yes
timezone=Europe/Rome
vnc_interactive=yes
vnc_password=pw0001a
wallpaper=http://192.168.1.10/kiosk/kiosk.jpg
whitelist=http://www.istruzione.gov.it http://www.miur.it http://www.governo.it
additional_components=09-x11vnc.xzm uefi.zip
When I test during installation this file, it appears on screen, so it means it is reachable in my Lan.
After all I start Porteus Kiosk by USB stick and i have an error message: "Remote kiosk config is not accessible, was not parsed correctly (must be encoded with ANSI or UTF-8) or "kiosk_config=" parameter is not present in it. System configuration will not be update. Pleas report this issue to your system administrator
Obviously "kiosk_config=http://192.168.1.10/kiosk/kiosk.txt" was set correctly during configuration in the part of config file stored in the program.
Someone can help me ? This issue can be because i'm using a USB stick ?
I use Porteus_kiosk V4.0.0.
Thx in advance
