As other colleagues here, I'm trying to reproduce the instructions shared on the excellent document here: https://github.com/jengelh/g-manual/blob/master/index.rst
My goal is to install Grommunio on a Debian 11 appliance, in a Proxmox LXC.
All the steps went quite easily but there is one which took all my day on searching why it was not working.
It seems that grommunio-admin-api doesn't work. I guess it's related to a uWSGI dependency but I compared my setup with the OpenSuse installation made via the ISO install and I don't find a difference.

Not being a Python expert, I see that uwsgi doesn't find the openapi.json but this file is also missing on the OpenSuse appliance provided by Grommunio.
Maybe good to add that I tried with the community and the supported repositories.
The current version of the installed package can be found here below:
# dpkg -l | grep 'gromox\|grommunio'
ii grommunio-admin-api 1.6.36.d0b990e-1+107.1 all Backend for grommunio management

If anyone has an idea, I'm interested :-)
