Last version break pi zero W about fermentrack HOT 16 OPEN

Fermentrack is built on top of a number of Packages by other developers, some of which unfortunately stopped supporting builds for ARMv6. Although Fermentrack itself doesn’t have any incompatibility, if those packages don’t support it then there’s not much that can be done.

Keeping the above in mind, if you want to play guinea pig, I can try to quickly produce an install script that doesn’t immediately kick back on an ARMv6 and you can give it a whirl. I don’t recall which specific package was causing issues, so it’s possible that it was something like zmq which I no longer use. Installation may take ages, and could ultimately fail, but if you’re interested in giving it a shot I can see what I can pull together.

i would to, or can you give me an old version that i can run on my pi zero w, i just use it to track fermentation with ispindel, i don't use any other fonctions

I just updated the Fermentrack Tools script to allow you to set a flag to override the Pi Zero check. Let me know if you have any questions (and if it works!)

Thank you

Are you installing on the same SD card as an existing installation? If so, the issue is that you have an existing installation of redis. I believe - but have not tested - that you can just uninstall this by running sudo apt-get remove redis-server

That said, my recommendation here would definitely be to use a brand new SD card rather than trying to install over the old one if possible. There's likely some other things (nginx configuration stands out) that you will need to reconfigure as a result of installing over an old version that would be cleaned up if you were installing fresh.

i used an existing installation
the install ended with

Ok. I can attempt a fix for that but it will take a bit to build. Keep your fingers crossed - this will be the moment of truth.

from fermentrack.

oh, thank you !
i stay tuned, and i crossed my fingers.

I managed to get it to build, but had to remove one of the upstream dependencies for numpy. To use the image I just built, run ./install.sh -z -i testing from your fermentrack-tools directory.

Let me know how it goes -- I'm curious now!

from fermentrack.

with two parameter, it can't be launch
sudo ./install.sh -z -i testing ./install.sh : option non permise -- z Invalid option: - Usage: ./install.sh [-h] [-n] [-p <port_number>] [-i <image>] Options: -h This help -n Run non interactive installation -p <port_number> Specify port to access Fermentrack -i <image> Docker image tag (defaults to 'latest') -z Ignore Pi Zero check

with only -i testing it looping on

from fermentrack.

I just fixed it so that the -z parameter should now work, and also pushed out something that might fix the psycopg2 issue. Try re-running ./install.sh -z -i testing and see if it helps.

from fermentrack.

i still have the psycopg2 issue :(
i think i'll try to found an old fork to try it.
Thanks for your help

from fermentrack.

Were you able to get it working with the older fork?

hi, i'm trying to install again.
Freshly installed bullseye on pi zero w
I ran https://github.com/thorrak/fermentrack-tools/blob/master/non_docker_install/install.sh, then

::: Running updateCronCircus.sh from the script repo *** ERROR: Could not find updateCronCircus.sh!
I don't find this file in the directory, have you a copy of this file please?

from fermentrack.

That script - updateCronCircus - was designed to specifically launch Circus which was the former Fermentrack process manager. Fermentrack no longer uses circus, and thus that script is no longer necessary.

The install script you are referencing - in non_docker_install - is just a frozen version of the install script from two years ago which attempts to perform a non-dockerized installation. It has not been updated for the latest versions of Fermentrack hence why it still references Circus.

Due to the number of environmental/instance-specific issues caused by non-docker installs I no longer encourage or support their use. Fermentrack’s code supports non-docker installations so if you want to go down that path you could do it manually, but there is no working, automated install script that I am aware of.

Although I do not encourage them, if you (or someone else reading this) do decide to go with a non-docker install and want to update the install script in fermentrack-tools to work with the latest versions of Fermentrack, I will merge a PR that updates it. I won’t update documentation to steer users towards it, however, as supporting non-docker installs is too much of a resource drain.

from fermentrack.

Separately, I will note that it seems like docker isn’t the issue here but Postgres. Is that correct?

An easier solution might be to tweak the configuration to use SQLite instead of Postgres, and strip that requirement.
