Install Unifi Controller 5.8 on Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial) LTS
Tested with Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial) LTS and Zabbix Controller 5.8.28 on September 2018
Add UniFi Repository
echo 'deb http://www.ubnt.com/downloads/unifi/debian stable ubiquiti' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/100-ubnt-unifi.list sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 06E85760C0A52C50 sudo apt update
Install OpenJDK and UniFi
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jre sudo apt install unifi
Check for issues
Have a log at syslogs with
sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog
If you see errors like
[...] unifi error: Service killed by signal 11
you have encoutered a know bug. To solve the issue type
echo "JSVC_EXTRA_OPTS=\"\$JSVC_EXTRA_OPTS -Xss1280k\"" | sudo tee -a /etc/default/unifi
and restart the controller with
sudo systemctl restart unifi
Note that unifi restart could take a lot of time. If you are in hurry, you can kill stuck unifi processes manually with kill -9 before restarting the service (or reboot the machine :)
Open Web Interface
