[main] failed to start the concentrator (AIOT-ILRA01-A10-CA40232EU) #288

Closed maxstefaniv closed 3 years ago

maxstefaniv commented 3 years ago

Expected Behavior

LoRaWanPktFwdModule should start.

Current Behavior

When iotedge logs LoRaWanPktFwdModule getting: error [main] failed to start the concentrator

Steps to Reproduce

  1. I already have set up an END-2-END with a Raspberry Pi3 (has some issues, but I was helped with everything)
  2. Currently, I am trying to repeat the set-up on a AIOT-ILRA01-A10-CA40232EU
  3. I installed UBUNTU Server 18.04.5 (including updates) and followed the steps on Install or uninstall Azure IoT Edge for Linux
  4. The Connection string I am using is the same that worked on my first set up.

Context (Environment)

Device (Host) Operating System

Ubuntu 18.04.5

LoRaWAN Module Version

Additional Information

I did look through some issues and this looks like a recurrent error but for US config. #gerfen had some similar issues. I have found steps for set up #245, there you tell installing Ubuntu server 16.04, but Microsoft requires 18.04 for edge device. I am not sure how to proceed here.

All the resources were deployed with the template from the git repo.

I did edit Environment variables as suggested in #272 image

Mandur commented 3 years ago

Apologies for the late answers, I missed the issue. Could you please try to set RESET_PIN variable to 5 and let me know if that helps?

maxstefaniv commented 3 years ago

Hello @Mandur, I did the change: image then restarted modules: sudo systemctl restart iotedge and rebooted the gateway.

Still getting the same Erorr but now for GPIO05:

EU region detected.

Also if I do ls /sys/class/gpio I get:

elastacloud@lastacloudloragataway:~$ ls /sys/class/gpio
export  gpiochip225  gpiochip228  gpiochip314  gpiochip341  gpiochip414  unexport

Could it be related to this warning/error cannot create /sys/class/gpio/gpio5/direction: Directory nonexistent

For that gateway that we also have in our lab you need this settings only on the module:

maxstefaniv commented 3 years ago

Hello @ronniesa that is exactly what I have right now, as I undid the steps that did not help me. image Maybe I should use other OS, or I should not have updated the one that I installed. I described as detailed as I could the steps so maybe I did something I should not or used something wrong.

ronniesa commented 3 years ago

Some AEON have the spi disabled one way is to do this https://github.com/dcleri/spi-enable I don't recall if I we did on this particular model or not....

maxstefaniv commented 3 years ago

@ronniesa got the files on the device and installed it. Didn't seem to help. I will try to redo all steps from scratch, might help.

Mandur commented 3 years ago

Looks like you have gpio enabled as ls /sys/class/gpio return some results... I just think the reset pin is not the normal one (5). Do you have maybe a readme or manual given to you by the manufacturer where you could find this information

maxstefaniv commented 3 years ago

I have sent a request to support, hopefully they will get back to me soon. Thank you! Hopefully will solve it soon.

ronniesa commented 3 years ago

One trick is to install the semtech packet forwarder directly on the OS to see it works once it is up and running you remove it and set the settings on the container and you are good to go.

maxstefaniv commented 3 years ago

This solution works. Issue 245 solution. GOing into Ubuntu Server 16.04.

SPI reset, as indicated by ronniesa in https://github.com/Azure/iotedge-lorawan-starterkit/issues/288#issuecomment-796642640 for Ubuntu Server 18.04 didn't work for me but for Ubuntu Server 16.04 it looks like it worked.

I will close the issue for now,feel free to reopen in case that changed
