Add the issue here https://github.com/openkm/document-mana ... tem/issues

Meanwhile, you can install the application manually following the steps described here https://docs.openkm.com/kcenter/view/ok ... ebian.html ( we have not documented openSUSE or other Linux distributions, but you can take Ubuntu & Debian as a reference for the steps what should be similar in your scenario ).

If you only are interested in application testing, then I suggest download the development environment -> https://www.openkm.com/en/download.html -> there's a video that tries to explain how to install it.

Sure, but we no longer produce that installer for several reasons we decided going ahead with own. From the next we will try to take a look on the issue, now the workmate who's taking control of the installer is not available for working on it.

I get the same message trying to install 6.3.6 on a Raspberry PI running Raspbian distro (debian based). Is it possible to know the checks that the installer make to ensure what distro is??? I'm asking this because if it's Debian Based, every step will work ...
