    Where do I place the files from the zip hspi3_091218.tar.gz?

    They seem to be the entire set of program files zipped into a compressed file. I take it there is no installation procedure to run?

    Is there a command line to move them to the appropriate directory on the Pi?

    I'm using a Pi4 with Buster.

    Tar -xzvf hspi3_091218.tar.gz

    this will uncompress a folder : HomeSeer


    can’t help with the pi

        I understand the TAR extract command, but where will the files go? Right now, they're in the downloads folder. I don't think I want my HS app to live and run there.

        Maybe the question I should be asking is where should I put it before I extract it?

          How would I uncompress this folder to /usr/local/HomeSeer. It seems that's where it should live.

            There is no hard standard. I recommend untarring into the /opt directory.

            Code:
            cd /opt
            sudo tar xaf /path/to/download.tar.gz

              Worked perfectly. Thanks!

                According to HomeSeer HS3-Pi Install Guide - https://homeseer.com/guides/HomeSeer...Guide-rev5.pdf the tar gz file should be located at https://homeseer.com/updates3/hs3pi3_070319.tar.gz but it's not.

                Does anyone know where to download it?

                Edit: It's now working again. Rupp fixed it in another thread.
