General information about installation in Linux OS

Installing the Client

  • The stable operation of the Client is not guaranteed on Ubuntu 18 and 19. We recommend installing only the Axxon One Server (see Installing the Axxon One Server in Linux OS). Both the Client and the Axxon One Server are supported on Ubuntu 20 and newer versions.
  • The Client and Server versions must match.

To install the Axxon One Client in Linux OS, do the following:

  1. Add the repositories by sequentially running the following commands:

    echo 'deb http://download.axxonsoft.com/debian-repository buster main backports/main' | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/axxonsoft.list
echo 'deb http://download.axxonsoft.com/debian-repository stretch backports/main' | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/axxonsoft.list
echo 'deb http://download.axxonsoft.com/debian-repository stable main' | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/axxonsoft.list
wget --quiet -O - "http://download.axxonsoft.com/debian-repository/info@axxonsoft.com.gpg.key" | sudo apt-key --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/axxonsoft.gpg add - && sudo apt-get update
  2. If you use Ubuntu 20.04, Debian 11 or higher, then install the mono-complete from the stretch repository:
    sudo apt-get install mono-complete -t stretch

  3. Download the Axxon One Client installation package from the AxxonSoft website (the Client line in the Linux 64-bit.deb section).

  4. Install the Axxon One Client by sequentially running the following commands:

    sudo dpkg -i axxon-one-client-bin*.deb || sudo apt-get install -f -y
sudo dpkg -i axxon-one-client_*all.deb || sudo apt-get install -f -y
  5. During installation, you must specify the maximum size of the log files in megabytes and the log level.


    Later you can change the specified value (see Configuring the logging parameters of the Axxon One Client in Linux OS). To do this, run the command:

    sudo dpkg-reconfigure axxon-one-client

Installation of the Axxon One Client in Linux OS is complete. When the installation is complete, the Client icon will be displayed in the application menu.

Installing the Axxon One Client without Server

In Linux OS, you can install the Axxon One Client without installing the Server. To do this, do the folloiwng:

  1. Add repositories as described in the Installing the Client section.
  2. Download the archive with packages to install the Axxon One Client from the AxxonSoft website (the Client line in the Linux 64-bit.deb section).
    The archive contains all necessary packages to install the Client:
    Package nameDescription
    axxon-drivers-pack_%version.number%_amd64.deb

    DriversPack is required for IP devices support in Axxon One

    axxon-detector-pack_%version.number%_amd64.deb

    Basic DetectorPack package includes only Object tracker, Tampering detector, Signal detector, Noise detector, Audio loss detector, and Motion detector

    axxon-one-core_%version.number%_amd64.deb

    The Client installation packages

    axxon-one-client_%version.number%_all.deb
    axxon-one-client-bin_%version.number%_amd64.deb
  3. Go to the folder with the downloaded archive and unzip it.
  4. Install DriverPack and DetectorPack using the following command:
    sudo dpkg -i /home/user/Downloads/axxon-d*.deb || sudo apt-get install -f -y
    where instead of /home/user/Downloads it is necessary to specify the actual path to the packages.

  5. Install the axxon-one-core_%version.number%_amd64.deb package using the following command:

    sudo dpkg -i /home/user/Downloads/axxon-one-core*.deb || sudo apt-get install -f -y

  6. Install the Client packages using the commands described in the Installing the Client section up to the last step.

Installation of the Axxon One Client without Server in Linux OS is complete.

Running the Client

  • You cannot run the Axxon One Client as a Linux user with the root rights.
  • You can authorize in the Client as any Axxon One user.

By default, at the first Client start, the OS interface language will be used. To change the language of the Client interface at the first start, do the following:

  1. Run the command:

    sudo dpkg-reconfigure axxon-one-client

  2. Select the required language:

    • This setting must configured for each OS user separately.
    • On the next launches the interface language can be changed in the Client settings (see Selecting the interface language).
