I’m getting there - and I’ll write it up for the docs when I am done. I raised a similar issue before I discovered ☹ [EmonHub Install - different instructions](https://community.openenergymonitor.org/t/emonhub-install-different-instructions/3061) @TrystanLea - you are right. I already had pip installed but I installed `serial` and `configobj` via pip as well as `paho-mqtt`. I’m not familiar enough with the process to understand the difference between installing via `apt-get` or `pip`. I also rewrote the `emonhub.service` file based on the work by @Greebo for service-runner as well as modifying the install method. Finally I amended my ‘emonhub.conf’ file in line with [emonhub/emonhub.conf at emon-pi · openenergymonitor/emonhub · GitHub](https://github.com/openenergymonitor/emonhub/blob/emon-pi/conf/emonhub.conf) - I am not sure I have that quite right though as I do not use the mqtt interface, just the HTTP one and the emonth setup seemed completely different. I still get the error I posted above but I realised overnight that I seem to remember there is a need to disable the serial console and I also did not check the name of the serial port. @Paul can you remind me if I am right about the serial console and how to check which is the right serial port please? --- _[View the full topic](https://community.openenergymonitor.org/t/which-version-of-emonhub-to-use/8626)._
