Hello Guys,

When I try to install the Ignition 7.9.9 64 bit on Ubuntu 16.04 server via command-line.

Got the error as below:  
Error: Error running /usr/local/bin/ignition/ignition.sh stop: child process exited abnormally Press [Enter] to continue:

how to configure the ignition.sh file to start.

Thanks in advance.

You shouldn’t have to change ignition.sh at all. You may have a problem with the Ignition gateway itself. You need to navigate to logs/wrapper.log or /var/log/ignition/wrapper.log and see if there are any errors in there.
