Unable to Install Crowsnest | Mainsail | Page 1

Hi all,

I've tried installing crowsnest both manually and through KIAUH, but I keep getting the same error.

I'm familiar with bash and tried stepping through the code that's erroring, but nothing is catching my eye as to what could be going wrong and there's no meaningful error to investigate. I'm running Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS on a Raspberry Pi 4, which the README says is compatible with the software.

Please let me know if there's any further steps I can do to investigate this issue.

Thanks in advance!

ubuntu@Ender-3-V2-Neo:~/crowsnest$ sudo make install
crowsnest - A webcam daemon for multiple cams and stream services.

    Ahoy!
    Thank you for installing crowsnest ;)
    This will take a while ...
    Please reboot after the installation has finished.

Fix your tags #readme

#

Klipper and moonraker don't have anything to do with crowsnest

#

Thanks 😄

#

@normal violet All fixed, my bad!

normal violet Nov 20, 2023, 3:57 PM

#

I have to look into the code again, but tbh, this looks weird

#

If this is the whole output, it seem like linking the packages list fails 🤔

small island Nov 20, 2023, 3:58 PM

#

Yes, that's the entire output

#

I also tried running sudo bash -c 'tools/install.sh' just to invesitgate if running that manually changed anything, but the output is the same (except missing make: *** [Makefile:17: install] Error 1 since it wasn't executed using make)

Send the output of ls -l ~/crowsnest/tools

So the symlink is missing

#

Try to run:
sudo -u ubuntu ln -sf ~/crowsnest/tools/libs/pkglist-generic.sh ~/crowsnest/tools/pkglist.sh

small island Nov 20, 2023, 4:02 PM

Looks better now. Try running make install again?

normal violet Nov 20, 2023, 4:03 PM

#

Yeah try again

#

If that succeeds, I will install the 22 LTS version real quick. If I cannot reproduce it, you would have to test some things for me

small island Nov 20, 2023, 4:04 PM

Same thing

Symlink is still there

#

Ok, then let us edit some code 😄

small island Nov 20, 2023, 4:04 PM

#

Sounds like a plan

normal violet Nov 20, 2023, 4:05 PM

#

~/crowsnest/tools/libs/core.sh line 141 the method link_pkglist_generic
Remove the &> /dev/null

#

Then it should show the output of the error

#

Is it a 64 bit or a 32 bit image?

small island Nov 20, 2023, 4:06 PM

#

64-bit

#

Got the error, this is bizarre
root is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

#

Let me add that entry now

normal violet Nov 20, 2023, 4:07 PM

#

small island Got the error, this is bizarre `root is not in the sudoers file. This incident ...

How can this happen?

#

I will flash it myself to see if that is an overall problem

small island Nov 20, 2023, 4:08 PM

#

No, it looks like my /etc/sudoers file got overridden at some point to only have one entry

#

I'm trying to trace my steps and find out what happened. Looks like it installed successfully though

normal violet Nov 20, 2023, 4:09 PM

#

Ok, I'm glad that there isn't a messed up Ubuntu version ^^
22.04 is the only one I didn't test....

small island Nov 20, 2023, 4:09 PM

#

Thank you for looking into that for me, appreciate it

normal violet Nov 20, 2023, 4:10 PM

#

No problem 😄

small island Nov 20, 2023, 4:10 PM

#

I just pulled the default sudoers file and root is definately there, so shouldn't have any further problems with that 🙂

#

I'm adding it back now

#

Looks like the ansible script I configured to add the ansible user to sudoers overwrote the entire file instead of appending it to the end

Did you use > instead of >> by any chance?
