having problem installing Repetier Host 2.16 on Linux Mint
Dear Team,
I've been using Repetier Host for five years and know by experience that this is is the most practical and user-friendly 3D printing host of all. Very recently I switched my desktop computer Lenovo ThinkCentre from Windows 7 to Linux Mint. Linux Mint was a dream made true until I tried to install my downloaded files of Repetier Host 2.16. It was always easy to do it on Windows XP, 7 or 10.
To be honest, I don't have a clue about how to do it. My Linux Mint is already upgraded.
Any help or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Victor

ls -l
it could be that you did not add execute permissions to the file:
chmod a+x Repetier-Host-x86_64-2.1.6.AppImage
Without that it is not an executeable and would not run.
I downloaded the Repetier-Host-x86_64-2.1.6.AppImage file, changed it to executable and I am able to run it. I configured the connection (IP) of my printer and as soon as I click connect, Repetier host hangs.
I tried to run it from a terminal and here it is what I have after click connect button
As a test call http://serverip:3344 on your browser. If you see server gui the server connector should work.
