Kickstart-static64.sh installation problems

[EnzoAkira]

Hi everyone!

Bug report summary

Yesterday I was installing netdata with this command like always:
sh /tmp/kickstart-static64.sh --dont-wait --dont-start-it
But I am not be able to access to netdata website on my machine.
I checked if the netdata service is up, and it is, but with errors like this:

On journalctl has some errors too:

Restarting netdata service take a bit long time and doesn't resolve anything.

OS / Environment

CentOS Linux 7.6.1810
Kernel 3.10.0-862.14.4.el7.x86_64

Netdata version (output of netdata -V)

netdata v1.14.0-rc0-33-gd9d41e6b

Component Name

netdata

Steps To Reproduce

• Download kickstart-static64.sh
  wget -O /tmp/kickstart-static64.sh https://my-netdata.io/kickstart-static64.sh
• installing netdata with:
  sh /tmp/kickstart-static64.sh --dont-wait --dont-start-it

Expected behavior

Edit:
One thing I forgot to mention:
I dug into the code of kickstart-static64 and found that it has a "--stable-channel" argument just to install stable releases. I suggest you need to insert into docs Installation
I'll try to do this and see if that solves it for now.

Hello @EnzoAkira I am suspecting you are experiencing the same problem with #5803 that is already fixed. Can you try again with the latest from https://my-netdata.io/kickstart-static64.sh and let me know?

It's working now! Thank you!

About the --stable-channel how does this work? Is it just for kickstart.sh or does it also work on kickstart-static64?

#5487 introduced the stable channel everywhere. @paulkatsoulakis we need an update on the installer readme.md please.
