Manual install wiki instruction

I tried installing FreePBX 17 on debian 12 (Azure Virtual machine).
I followed the instructions here in the wiki (title, as I can’t paste a link here): How to Install FreePBX 17 on Debian 12 with Asterisk 20

The step
./install -n
didn’t work (error message and the script aborted)

It worked, after I installed cron:
apt-get install -y cron

Should cron be added to the installed packages in the first steps of the installation guide?

Wait, cron is not installed by default on Debian 12? That doesn’t seem right.

I just created another VM to be sure.
Doesn’t seem to be installed

Not to say that the install script for FPBX 17 shouldn’t check for dependencies and install them if they are not present.

I found using the wiki to do the install my debian machine didn’t adopt one of the paths needed.
Added manually

PATH=$PATH:/sbin

If it is using a cron alternative, you probably need to install the legacy support for crontabs, rather than cron, itself.
