Start UNMS

sudo ~unms/app/unms-cli start

Fix Redis AOF

sudo ~unms/app/unms-cli fix-redis-aof

Running the above command resolved the problem and let UNMS start working.

On the forums they seemed to recommend stopping the service and running

sudo ~unms/app/unms-cli rewrite-redis-aof

I was getting the following error when trying to run this command. Running the above command worked though.

larry@localhost:~$ sudo ~unms/app/unms-cli stop
larry@localhost:~$ sudo redis-check-aof --fix ~unms/data/redis/appendonly.aof

MongoDB – dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe)

Ran into an issue when trying to figure out some problems with UniFi and UniFi-Video. Upgrading both to the latest version was causing problems, because they both needed different versions of MongoDB.

Was getting the following error when trying to install MongoDB. Think I was trying to install Mongo following the instructions on their site and then it caused issues with apt.

dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/mongodb-org-server_4.2.5_amd64.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/mongod', which is also in package mongodb-server-core 1:3.6.3-0ubuntu1.1
dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe)

Removed the following file

rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-4.2.list

and was able to use apt again to install MongoDB. Didn’t end up solving my problem because I technically needed two versions, but at least apt was being nice again. Ended up installing the UniFi controller docker container and can run both on the same server that way.
