install about assistant-relay HOT 18 CLOSED

@DaveMeade It's referring to Step 17 of the Google Cloud Setup section.

from assistant-relay.

@DaveMeade before you start a new thread - endoplasmic/google-assistant#52

Its just not working for some Google users. Its something on Google's end. If you want to make sure your setup is right, just make sure the command shows up here - https://myactivity.google.com/myactivity

If it does, you are good. Just wait (unfortunately) for Google to resolve this.

I'm having the same/similar issue. I've attached the log file.

I was experiencing the same problem, but resolved it by following the exact steps from this installation guide: https://github.com/ryancasler/assistant-relay/wiki/Install-Instructions

@churstblock I'm not clear on step 8 of the "update other stuff" section. What username is it asking for here? There doesn't appear to be a username contained within my credentials.json file.

Thanks @churstblock

I seem to have everything setup and the server is running an accepting commands, but there is no resulting broadcasts on my google home speakers.

I didnt hear either of the "Hello World" or the "Assistant Relay is now setup and running for dave"

Any suggestions as to where to look for the problem?

@DaveMeade Only thing I could think of would be that your Google Cloud project and OAuth key aren't on the same Google account as your existing Google Home.

from assistant-relay.

Hmm, they are on the same account. I checked the Google Cloud project dashboard, and it is receiving and processing the calls, but its returning a 499 Error (Canceled by user). I'm not sure what to do what that, but perhaps I'll start a new thread as it doesn't appear to be "install" related anymore. Thanks for your help, @churstblock .

from assistant-relay.

@phvajjha thanks for that. interesting thread. I'm not sure if its related to my error, but it seems to be a pretty safe bet. I'll post my observations there.

from assistant-relay.

It works (flakily) for me. I always get the 499 Error response on the web console. I guess you can safely ignore it. Many other users reported the same error code on the dashboard, even when it was working fine a few months ago.

from assistant-relay.

I followed the steps from https://github.com/ryancasler/assistant-relay/wiki/Install-Instructions.

I still get a fatal error while npm is running make. I've attached a text file with the output as well as the npm log.

I noticed it seems to start failing when trying to download from GRPC storage.googleapis.com.
I tried downloading it manually, but wasn't successful:

@Jpereyra316 I had the same issue because, like you (judging by the error log), I had been trying to use the latest version of node. Something about that fails. Try uninstalling nodejs and re-installing it according to the install instructions you linked. (Just below "17. Once downloaded...")

from assistant-relay.

Yeah, I'm trying to use the latest version.

Thanks for the tip. I'll downgrade and see if that resolves my issue.

from assistant-relay.

So I followed step 17 in https://github.com/ryancasler/assistant-relay/wiki/Install-Instructions and was able to install. However, when running node index.js on the RPI through remote desktop connection I get the following error:

pi@raspberrypi:~/assistant-relay $ node index.js
/home/pi/assistant-relay/node_modules/grpc/src/grpc_extension.js:46
throw error;

Any suggestions?

Thanks for all the help!

from assistant-relay.

Never mind.

I restarted the RPI and it worked. I think the node installation wasn't being used for some reason, so it was trying to use the newer one to launch index.js.

I heard "Assistant Relay is now setup and running for ", so I guess it's working. I'll play around with it some more tomorrow.
