Create installer after compiling with different config.ini

[baseljd]

After compiling the source, how can I make an installer for the Agent? Just changing the config.ini and copying it to another machine doesn't work. I guess I have to install some certificates and configure some files on the machine for it to work.

I am trying to change the config.ini to give access to my server. I then want to give the user the new installer that has my updated config.ini

After compiling the agent using go build I get a arduino-create-agent file.
Running it would gives an error like so cannot open config file. So i copied it into the source in the same directory of the config.ini and i'm getting this error

You're getting the panic because you are compiling with golang 1.9, and there's an issue with that version. With 1.8 you'll have no trouble.

We cannot share the way to create an installer since it involves paid licenses.

You can however generate the certificates with the commands here: https://github.com/arduino/arduino-create-agent/blob/devel/certificates.go

We're currently using Go 1.14 to build the project, so I think this issue no longer applies.

Fell free to reopen the issue if this error still occurs in you case.
