Hello everybodyemoncms.org with an arduino.
Question is this guide the right one for my project?
**To install emoncms on a Raspberry Pi see new installation script approach:<br>https://github.com/openenergymonitor/EmonScripts**
---
## Archived: Install Emoncms on Raspberry Pi (Raspbian Stretch)
This guide will install emoncms onto a Raspberry Pi running the Raspbian Stretch operating system.
**Highly Recommended: A pre-built Raspberry Pi SD card image is available with Emoncms pre-installed & optimised for low-write. [SD card image download & change log repository](https://github.com/openenergymonitor/emonpi/wiki/emonSD-pre-built-SD-card-Download-&-Change-Log).**
An alternative (older) installation guide is avaliable for [Raspbian Jessie](jessie.md) - they are different, so ensure that you use the correct guide!
Due to the number of writes that the full version of emoncms makes, the lifespan of an SD card will almost certainly be shortened, and it is therefore recommended that you eventually [move the operating system partition (root) to an USB HDD](USB_HDD.md) or to lower the write frequency to the SD card by enabling the [low-write mode.](Low-write-mode.md)
Before installing emoncms, it is essential you have a working version of Raspbian Stretch installed on your Raspberry Pi. If not, head over to [raspberrypi.org](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/installing-images/README.md) and follow their installation guide.
### Preparation
Start by updating the system repositories and packages:
```
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
show original
Or schould i try another?

I have installed the image from this site:
EmonScripts/readme.md at master · openenergymonitor/EmonScripts · GitHub
the raspberry shows emonpi login:
Whats next: " Install the EmonCMS Installation Scripts" ?

If you have installed the image there is not much else to do.
Nothing to install - Emoncms is preinstalled.

that sounds good. How can I access the localhost? Do I have to adjust settings? Is there a graphic interface?

You appear to have changed this - have you setup the database on this host?
