Question

How long should it take a 1-Click Kasm Workspaces Deployment to complete?

I ran a first-time deployment of the 1-Click Kasm Workspaces deployment on a new droplet over 2 hours ago. I can reach the UI but I still don’t have admin or user credentials displayed on the SSH login banner.

This is what I see.


Kasm setup still running. Please wait

status: error


Welcome to the Kasm Workspaces 1-Click Deployment! You can login to your deployment through the URL: https://xxx.xx.xxx.xxx

To login as Admin use the following default credentials: Username: admin@kasm.local Password:

To login as a normal user use the following credetials: Username: user@kasm.local Password:



Can anyone tell me how long the deployment typically takes to complete?

Thanks in advance!!

Hi there,

Looking at the output that you’ve shared it looks like that indeed something went wrong during the setup: status: error.

I’ve tested it just now and timed the process:

  • For a Droplet with 8GB RAM it took about 100 seconds for the Droplet to be created and for the setup process to complete after the initial SSH connection to the server.
  • For a Droplet with 4GB RAM it took about 50 seconds longer.

Hope that this helps! Best, Bobby
