Ok

Ok

Ok, when running ngcp-installer, then you get:

| Installation finished. Thanks for choosing Sipwise C5 Community Edition.
| Please reboot the server, then continue with the configuration by running
| 'screen -S ngcp' then 'ngcp-initial-configuration'.

So you seemed to have skipped this reboot between ngcp-installer
ngcp-initial-configuration execution.

But anyhow, even then I can't reproduce your problem.

>> 4) What's inside your /var/log/ngcp-installer.log?

This chronyd.service failure is strange (this seems to come from
your Debian image on Azure), though shouldn't be the underlying
cause of your problem(s).

But it doesn't need to be an error in the ngcp-installer.log,
certain steps might be skipped for good reasons (to avoid data
damage or support custom configurations). Please share your *full*
/var/log/ngcp-installer.log with us/me. If you don't feel
comfortable with sharing it on the mailing list, feel free to drop
me a personal mail.
