Project ID: N/A

It looks like the relevant parameters are in the variables, but the ffmpeg is not being found. It is not possible to put the parameters in the .env file instead. Check the logs to see if there is an error, and if not, it may be necessary to install ffmpeg on the Linux system.

rough burrow Dec 4, 2022, 2:21 PM

#

it needs to be installed

#

reason is that on my pc i got the same error before installing ffmpeg but after installing it worked fine

#

and it works on my pc but not on railway

#

do i install it if yes then how

#

any errors?

rough burrow Dec 4, 2022, 2:46 PM

#

yeah

#

node:internal/process/promises:279
triggerUncaughtException(err, true /* fromPromise */);
^
[Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat '/workspace/recordings/722302164302692472.pcm.mp3'] {
errno: -2,
code: 'ENOENT',
syscall: 'stat',
path: '/workspace/recordings/722302164302692472.pcm.mp3'
}

#

my code is supposed to convert a .pcm file to .mp3 file using ffmped

#

but mp3 file is not being created

#

hence the error

#

#

any errors relating to ffmpeg?

rough burrow Dec 4, 2022, 3:13 PM

#

no

rough burrow Dec 4, 2022, 3:14 PM

#

odd wind any errors relating to ffmpeg?

but ffmpeg is supposed to create the file

odd wind Dec 4, 2022, 3:15 PM

#

im not sure. If your envoking ffmpeg manually maybe log stderr

rough burrow Dec 4, 2022, 3:23 PM

#

im not

#

im using the lib

#

ffmpeg

odd wind Dec 4, 2022, 3:33 PM

#

not sure. i guess try work out how to find the error

#

railways fs is a normal fs the only difference is it gets wiped between deploys

pale cave Dec 4, 2022, 4:58 PM

#

ffmpeg isn’t installed by default, create a NIXPKGS environment variable with the value ffmpeg and it should be installed

#

@rough burrow

#

or create a nixpacks.toml file with

[phases.setup].
  nixPkgs = ['ffmpeg','YOURLANGUAGEHERE'].

#

with yourlanguagehere replaced with the language you’re using

rough burrow Dec 4, 2022, 5:23 PM

#

pale cave or create a nixpacks.toml file with ``` [phases.setup]. nixPkgs = ['ffmpeg','...

so like

[phases.setup].
  nixPkgs = ['ffmpeg','JAVASCRIPT'].

#

??

#

so i'll make the file anywhere ? like not in any folder ?

pale cave Dec 4, 2022, 5:47 PM

#

it has to be in the root directory

#

and make sure javascript isn’t capitalized

rough burrow Dec 4, 2022, 5:55 PM

#

ah alright

rough burrow Dec 4, 2022, 5:55 PM

#

pale cave it has to be in the root directory

so workspace/nixpacks.toml ??

pale cave Dec 4, 2022, 5:57 PM

#

Whatever your root directory is, the bottom folder in your repo

rough burrow Dec 4, 2022, 6:53 PM

#

pale cave Whatever your root directory is, the bottom folder in your repo

i dont understand

#

like in node_modules ?

rugged prairie Dec 4, 2022, 7:04 PM

#

whatever your root directory is

#

the top folder of your project

rough burrow Dec 4, 2022, 7:09 PM

#

rugged prairie whatever your root directory is

did i do it right ?

rugged prairie Dec 4, 2022, 7:09 PM

#

It looks like It's root directory

#

yep

rough burrow Dec 4, 2022, 7:09 PM

#

but uh... it still returns the same error

rugged prairie Dec 4, 2022, 7:12 PM

#

odd wind im not sure. If your envoking ffmpeg manually maybe log `stderr`

have you tried this?

rough burrow Dec 4, 2022, 7:15 PM

#

no

#

ok lemme

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 8:29 AM

#

rugged prairie have you tried this?

hey um i tired logging stderr but nothing gets logged

odd wind Dec 5, 2022, 9:03 AM

#

How about stdout maybe it's just being places in a different location

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 10:44 AM

#

ok

#


node:internal/process/promises:279
triggerUncaughtException(err, true /* fromPromise */);

path: '/workspace/recordings/722302164302692472.pcm.mp3'
}

#

its not logging anything other than this

odd wind Dec 5, 2022, 11:44 AM

#

Ide suggest running this locally in docker

#

If your using nixpacks on RAILWAY you can find the install instructions here https://nixpacks.com

Getting Started | Nixpacks

App source + Nix packages + Docker = Image

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 12:49 PM

#

getting errors installing tho

#

@odd wind

#

I have WSL installed so I am using this

odd wind Dec 5, 2022, 12:49 PM

#

Ugh

#

What command did you run?

#

( you probally need to specify a version )

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 12:50 PM

#

first this

curl -LO https://github.com/railwayapp/nixpacks/releases/download/v0.15.0/nixpacks-v0.15.0-amd64.deb

then

sudo dpkg -i nixpacks-v0.15.0-amd64.deb

odd wind Dec 5, 2022, 12:51 PM

#

I Have absolutely zero ide

#

Idea

#

Are there other install methods

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 12:51 PM

#

i tried scoop too

odd wind Dec 5, 2022, 12:52 PM

#

How Bout
curl -sSL https://nixpacks.com/install.sh | bash

#

Or using cargo

#

Idk

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 12:52 PM

#

#

thats scoop

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 12:53 PM

#

odd wind How Bout `curl -sSL https://nixpacks.com/install.sh | bash`

i'll try that

#

and i dont have rust so no cargo

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 12:55 PM

#

odd wind How Bout `curl -sSL https://nixpacks.com/install.sh | bash`

its asking for my sudo password

#

i have a sudo pass for wsl

#

i put that but its not taking input

odd wind Dec 5, 2022, 12:55 PM

#

Input is hidden

#

Cus its a password

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 12:56 PM

#

i hit enter

#

nothing happen

odd wind Dec 5, 2022, 1:00 PM

#

Idk

#

Literally no idea

#

You can try homebrew

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 1:01 PM

#

im not on mac

odd wind Dec 5, 2022, 1:02 PM

#

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)" ( or Google now to install homebrew )

#

You can install homebrew in wsl irrc

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 1:26 PM

#

@odd wind 😭

#

#

after so many restarts it finally

odd wind Dec 5, 2022, 1:31 PM

#

Wsl moment

#

Yea so you can build your project with nixpacks

#

Then run the container and exec onto it

#

To see what's going on

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 1:33 PM

#

odd wind Wsl moment

uh

#

new problem

#

i installed it on wsl

#

right

#

but when i run the cmd

nixpacks build ./path/to/app --name my-app

odd wind Dec 5, 2022, 1:33 PM

#

Yes

#

Just cd to the directory in windows

#

And type wsl

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 1:34 PM

#

OH

odd wind Dec 5, 2022, 1:34 PM

#

That's like the selling point of wsl. But the mount speed is so fucking unusable it's insane

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 1:35 PM

#

no shit

odd wind Dec 5, 2022, 1:35 PM

#

?

rough burrow Dec 5, 2022, 1:37 PM

#

odd wind ?

odd wind Dec 5, 2022, 2:49 PM

#

I'm guessing path to add is wrong

#

You need to set that

rough burrow Dec 6, 2022, 11:40 AM

#

odd wind You need to set that

ok so my nixpacks build is done

#

but i cant run it using docker

#

i need to run docker docker daemon

#

but it just wont turn on even with root access

odd wind Dec 6, 2022, 12:03 PM

#

Wsl moment

#

You should have root access no?

#

sudo dockerd

#

Nixpacks build uses docker to run tho... So it must be working?

Hi! I have a bit of a issue that I've been trying to solve for a day and a half but cannot find any answer that can solve this problem. i am trying to deploy my app on railways using docker but I always seem to get this error and I just cannot understand why.. rpc error: code = Unknown desc = Failed to start container: "python3" executable file not found in $PATH unknown

#

here is my dockerfile

#

FROM python:3.10

WORKDIR /.

COPY . .

RUN apt-get -y update

RUN apt-get install -y ffmpeg

RUN pip3 install --user -r requirements.txt

RUN pip3 uninstall -y ffmpeg-python
RUN pip3 uninstall -y ffmpeg

RUN pip3 install python-ffmpeg

CMD ["python3", "app.py"]

#

the app runs perfectly locally using python3 app.py, using docker containers but when I try to deploy it on railways it just gives me that weird error and I've already exhausted all the solutions I could find

odd wind Dec 7, 2022, 3:23 PM

#

Try

#

CMD ["/bin/bash", "python3", "app.py"]

sly bobcat Dec 7, 2022, 3:28 PM

#

it went active for a split second and then this appeared in the deploy logs /bin/bash: python3: No such file or directory

#

it crashed

#

i'm trying to now deploy with /usr/local/bin instead of "/bin/bash" to see if something changes

sly bobcat Dec 7, 2022, 4:01 PM

#

yeah it doesn't work, i'm trying to add a apt get install python into the docker file to see if it changes

odd wind Dec 7, 2022, 4:03 PM

#

But your extending the python image

#

Try python instead of python3

sly bobcat Dec 7, 2022, 4:08 PM

#

just python also didn't work

#

that was one of the first things i had tried

sly bobcat Dec 7, 2022, 4:26 PM

#

like i'm getting a "little" confused at this point ahahah
