Does anyone have a step by step instruction list of how to install electrum-dash on Ubuntu server or any other OS?

Electrum Dash runs on python2 and older software so not all of the dependencies are downloading. I cannot find a workaround.

Getting an Electrum Dash desktop wallet for Windows 10 is not a problem it works fine but trying to install it on Ubuntu using sudo commands is just not working.

Does anyone have any ideas to get this working on Ubuntu server or any other OS??

You should be able to manually download the dependencies yourself... the issue will be identifying exactly which packages (and which version of each package) that you need to make it work.

What specific errors are you getting when attempting to install the packages on Ubuntu? ???

Errors came up because the execution command was wrong. Before I was running "electrum-dash" commands which generatred errors but running "./electrum-dash" is working fine.

Using this for testing purposes, not sure about the security of this python2 version.

Unless they backported the RPC fixes... then it's probably still got that rather large security vulnerability that was patched in Electrum 3.0.5

Most probably yes. I think those vulnerabilities were related to browsers which were addressed Electrum 3.0.5. I just wanted to run some tests on the Electrum Dash to see what made it work but playing around on python2 is not ideal. Electrum Dash version 2.9.4 probably has all those vulnerabilities still there so need to test until or unless it is updated tp python3 in future.

They indeed fixed it.
