I got Ersatz working fine on my Windows PC. But now I'm trying to set it up on a seedbox running Debian Linux 10.23 on an amd64 machine. I think the release I need is ErsatzTV-v0.8.7-beta-linux-x64.tar.gz. But then what's the command I need to run and/or install Ersatz once I have that folder extracted onto my server? Is it just ./ErsatzTV when I'm in the folder? Sorry for my extreme noobness.

after extracting ErsatzTV-v0.8.7-a8b658a5-linux-x64.tar.gz and running ErsatzTV, I get the following error:
GC heap initialization failed with error 0x8007000E
Failed to create CoreCLR, HRESULT: 0x8007000E

it doesnt look like debian 10 is supported by the runtime that etv uses (dotnet 8). see https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/release-notes/8.0/supported-os.md

trying this now on lightsail
how long should I expect that last step to take?
welp nvm
am I going about this really stupidly? am I missing an obvious setup? I don't have an extra computer at home I can use for this.
nvm had to install ffmpeg

The Killed message shows up when the application is killed by an outside process.
Depending on what/where you running that, there's several reasons why it might be killed, but most common:
- You run out of RAM, and the Linux OOM Reaper killed the process that was using the most RAM
- There's a "watch guard" process that kills processes that are either using too many resources or have been running for a long time and they are not "whitelisted" to run for that long. This is common on "commercial" Seedboxes.

any general advice for setting up Ersatz/Plex not on my computer or on an onsite homelab setup?
wanton phoenix
The advice is "don't"
delicate sentinel
bascially not worth trying unless you can do it at home?
wanton phoenix
No, I just don't think you have the required skillset to do so
delicate sentinel
yeah probably right
wanton phoenix
You should probably do it on your home PC to get a basic understanding of it, and then try to tackle more complicated setups

I did get it working on my home pc
that was simple on windows
just don't have much linux experience
and I have no experience with the whole VPS world
getting plex set up on my ultra.cc seedbox was also simple
everything would've been fine if I could've installed ersatz on it too
wanton phoenix
It was simple, because, probably, they (the seedbox provider) has prepared the environment for you to run Plex already
