what does that mean? die you set up mjpeg streamer? are you sure it's running?

The easiest way to setup OctoPrint + the cam server is with this install script: GitHub - paukstelis/octoprint_deploy: Bash script for rapid deployment of multiple octoprint instance on a single machine

Well acutally that was the thing. mjpeg streamer was just not install.
Since I now absolutely nothing about linux I thought that was a sort of preinstalled thing but I was just a dumbass.

if anyone need : Setup mjpg-streamer on Ubuntu Server 20

So you got it working?
