Troubleshooting PGA Installation Issues  

If you are facing issues and not able to open the user interface even after doing the necessary steps, please troubleshot with below steps
below command may not work which is specified in the installation page for the Ubuntu :

  • After following the required steps only the home page is working and some images are not shown properly.
