DietPi Dashboard install problem

When I install the dashboard it doesn’t start, it gives me failed

You are running a RPi 5, right?

Can you check
journalctl -u dietpi-dashboard

yes Pi5

[  OK  ] DietPi-Software | systemctl start dietpi-dashboard
root@DietPi:~# journalctl -u dietpi-dashboard

Ok that’s everything, hmm.
Let’s ask the dev @ravenclaw900

maybe you can also increase log level and try again and check journalctl.

G_CONFIG_INJECT 'log_level[[:blank:]]' '#log_level = "debug"' /opt/dietpi-dashboard/config.toml
systemctl restart dietpi-dashboard

edit:

to switch to nightly just trigger a reinstall

dietpi-software reinstall 200

Try the nightly build if on RPi5

When it asks me during the installation if I want a backend or not, what do I put?

I only have a couple of problems left.

The version that it installs is 0.6.1 and it tells me that there is a new 0.6.2 but doing the 200 reinstall does not update it.

The other problem is when I use the file manager of this dashboard to download a movie to my PC, it doesn’t download, it keeps saying zipping…
and nothing goes down

Pls use the DietPi Dashboard Github account for such request. There you will reach the Dashboard developer @ravenclaw900 GitHub - ravenclaw900/DietPi-Dashboard: A lightweight, standalone web dashboard for DietPi
