Motioneye not starting ubuntu 18.04

[wolfi74]

Hi,
since update to ubuntu 18.04 motioneye wont start working.
The service is not started.
Please help.
Thanks

What do the logs say? What error message do you get if you try to start it manually? No one can help you with an error report that simply says "Motioneye not starting".

@wolfi74 - not sure if you have resolved this issue, I came across the same issue and thanks to @ostermayer, installing "apt install libcurl3 python-pip" resolved it for me.
see it here - motioneye-project/motioneye#872
Hope it helps.

@abscode0 thank you very much. Works for me too

Looks like problem has been resolved. Closing issue.

This issue is caused by old cache information left over from the old version of
Ubuntu. Run rm -rf ~/.cache/pip and reinstall pycurl.
