How To Fix conserver: command not found in Ubuntu / Debian / Kali Linux / Raspbian

In Ubuntu conserver is provided by conserver-server package.

conserver-server is:

Conserver is an application that allows multiple users to watch a serial console at the same time. It can log the data, allows users to take write-access of a console (one at a time), and has a variety of bells and whistles to accentuate that basic functionality. The idea is that conserver will log all your serial traffic so you can go back and review why something crashed, look at changes (if done on the console), or tie the console logs into a monitoring system (just watch the logfiles it creates). With multi-user capabilities you can work on equipment with others, mentor, train, etc. It also does all that client-server stuff so that, assuming you have a network connection, you can interact with any of the equipment from home or wherever.

This is the server part of the conserver system.

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install conserver-server

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

sudo apt -y install conserver-server

Or if you have aptitude installed you can use the following command.

sudo aptitude install conserver-server
