I guess I was hoping for a bit more of a tutorial
However, after much Gargling (thatās the sound you start making after hours/days of searching/reading/testing/rejecting Google posts), I was able to install Java to C.H.I.P using this siteās directions:
Then install Blynk, after adding āāno-check-certificateā:
wget --no-check-certificate "https://github.com/blynkkk/blynk-server/releases/download/v0.20.1/server-0.20.1.jar"
And modding the directory to match C.H.I.P for the run command:
java -jar server-0.20.1.jar -dataFolder /home/chip/Blynk
THEN⦠manually!! typing in the auth code to my Arduino Ethernet test code - repeatedly - until I got it right (I guess the email auth code function from Android does not work when using own server???).
And⦠it works!!.. sort of⦠my test servo control is still erratic and jumpy (I had thought it might have been the ping, which was one reason for the local server).
Also, I am unable to access the Administration Panel UI from my PC, just says no connection⦠(And yes, correct IP, and I am assuming, correct port for me - https://10.10.3.201:7443/admin) Any helpful ideas on this?
But at least I now have Blynk on my Android, controlling an Arduino (ethernet) via a local server, running wireless on a headless C.H.I.P.
And I think I learned a thing or two⦠that I now have a love/hate relationship with all things Linux
Hope this helps the next crazy C.H.I.P.er who wants to set up a server on it.
