request make an appimage

[bitfanatic]

hi i have tried using this awesome app on linux mint and i want to use it on my pop os machine
but i dont know how to make it work

is it possible for someone to make an appimage for people like me lacking the skills to install this app

thank you

Pop OS! is based on Ubuntu. So you can download the .Deb file from packages.linuxmint.com or you can add the deb http://packages.linuxmint.com uma main to your apt list. Then do sudo apt update; sudo apt install webapp-manager.

Thank you for your suggestion
I already tried doing this one time

But the app wont open when i tried to do it

And i thought and appimage would Work much better

[hsbasu]

I apologize, but I have no knowledge on how appimage works. Since you mentioned the Pop OS and I know it's ubuntu based, i suggested the .deb method.

Btw what did you try? Making an appimage, or downloading and installing the .deb file.

i followed an artical on ask ubuntu forums
i got the app downloaded but i couldnt get it to launch

I have added the install instructions in PR #120. Try following the instructions given there.

Hsbasu i tried to used the instructions in the readme you linked but i cannot get it to Work

I tried to write a comment in new readme but i am not sure you have seen it

Thanks for your help

You can also download the .deb file and install it directly.

[bitfanatic]

I Will try but i think i already tried this and it and the app would not launch

[hsbasu]

Can you post what you did?
All you have to download the .deb.
Then from the directory where the .deb file is located open a terminal and type the following commands

1. sudo dpkg -i *.deb
2. sudo apt install -f

[bitfanatic]

1. sudo dpkg -i *.deb

ok i have tried downloading the .deb file from here http://packages.linuxmint.com/pool/main/w/webapp-manager/

i downloaded this file
webapp-manager_1.1.1.tar.xz | 2021-Jan-12 06:00:38 | 61.1K | application/x-xz

extracted it to a folder named apps

buti was not able to find a .deb file anywhere so i tried to use sudo dpkg -i *.deb many place but i kept getting
the error below

noname@pop-os:~/APPs$ sudo dpkg -i .deb
[sudo] password for noname:
dpkg: error: cannot access archive '.deb': No such file or directory
