Hello

I installed the latest version of the panel on Debian 12 and noticed that the web terminal won’t start.

Have to rebuild the terminal package. NPM made some changes that messed things up with the build…

wget https://beta-apt.hestiacp.com/hestia-web-terminal_1.0.5-1+ubuntu24.04_amd64.deb
dpkg -i hestia-web-terminal_1.0.5-1+ubuntu24.04_amd64.deb

If other OR replace ubuntu24.04_amd64 with the correct one

Debian 12)

Then it is

wget https://beta-apt.hestiacp.com/hestia-web-terminal_1.0.5-1+debian12_amd64.deb
dpkg -i hestia-web-terminal_1.0.5-1+debian12_amd64.deb

This was a test setup)

Also, the web terminal itself does not start through the panel.
It is necessary to do service hestia-web-terminal start

The problem is old… Apparently, the name of the service in the panel is not specified correctly.
