Amazon Linux Support

What is wrong

We have a requirement to deploy action-server to Amazon Linux 2023. Attempting to launch an action server after following the installation instructions results in a glibc error.

System info

Amazon Linux 2023.

Example script

• Launch an Amazon Linux 2023 instance
• Install action-server per documentation
• Use action-server new to creates new project.
• action-server start
• Observe glibc error.

The issue is probably that we don't build on all the possible Linux configurations for the binary.

A question: have you tried to pypi install the action server and start it from the python in the environment?

-- i.e.: we use the manylinux build for python in that case, so, presumably this would work...

@ptgoetz Just throwing this out there but why not just put it on a container? Podman, Docker, k8s?

Here is a pretty good POC - joshyorko/actual-budget-server that might help you get started pay special attention to the Dockerfile I used Ubuntu as the base but python or a standard amazon base image would probably work just fine. Additionally the config/supervisord.conf . Secret sauce as it were.

I also have a k8s helm chart if you are into that kind of thing, Single k3s node should do it. Update the image obviously to your jazz.
