DietPi-Automation | dietpi-update runs before network established and initially fails.

Appears to be an issue with curl failing on SSL cert. A connection test (based on wget) is already performed prior to dietpi-update running, which is successful:

Curl seems to have an issue with verifying certs straight after systemD services are completed, when using automatic login.

Added the -k flag which will allow "insecure" certs and prevents error.

curl -k -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Fourdee/DietPi/"$GITBRANCH"/dietpi/server_version > "$FILEPATH_TEMP"/server_version

Tested and confirmed on Odroid XU4 and RPi2

@rhkean Excellent :+1: . Thanks for letting me know.

As this fix cannot be applied by patching (the issue occurs prior to DietPi updating), I will need update all the DietPi image files to v109 for this issue to be resolved.

The new image files will be available from dietpi.com when v109 is released.

[rhkean]

let me know if you need me to test the new image. I can test the XU4 and RPi2 images.

[Fourdee]

@rhkean Thanks. I will try and get them completed today, will let you know when they are available.

[Fourdee]

@rhkean Here is the updated XU4 image: http://dietpi.com/downloads/images/testing/

I tried the following automation template: http://dietpi.com/downloads/dietpi-automation_templates/DietPi-Core%20(DietPi%20as%20minimal%20image)/DietPi-Core%20-%20OpenSSH%20Server%20-%20DHCP%20(Fully%20automated).txt Appears to be working fine :)

[Fourdee]

@rhkean I've uploaded the remaning DietPi v109 images: http://dietpi.com/downloads/images/testing/

If you are able to test the ones you can with automation, i'd be grateful.

[rhkean]

I can test the XU4, RPi (Jessie), & RPi (Wheezy). I'll test them this weekend. I don't have a C1 or OrangePi... sorry Do you just support the RPi2? or do you also support the B+ and/or A+? If so, I can test those, too.

[Fourdee]

@rhkean Thanks I appreciate it. I'll test the Orange Pi and C1.

All RPi's are supported (the only exclusion is the compute module).

Theres no need to test additional RPi's (B/A/Zero etc) as we are only checking the initial automation code (which doesn't change per device). A single test of Wheezy and one of Jessie on any RPi would be great.

[Fourdee]

C1 & OrangePi Tested Ok using: http://dietpi.com/downloads/dietpi-automation_templates/DietPi-Core%20(DietPi%20as%20minimal%20image)/DietPi-Core%20-%20OpenSSH%20Server%20-%20DHCP%20(Fully%20automated).txt

I think the Wheezy image has some problems... several "cannot stat /proc/...." messages during boot.

then, at the end of the bootup, just before login prompt:

DietPi-Process Tool Applying settings, please wait...

warning: bad ps syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'?

See http://gitorious.org/procps/procps/blobs/master/Documentation/FAQ

renices cron, dhcp client, and dropbear

[rhkean]

ok... not sure why that last post blew up the text.... probably a "markdown" thing (really need to commit that stuff to memory)

ran the wheezy image with my dietpi.txt file. mysql failed. not sure what else, but I'm definitely going to have to give this image a thumbs-down. will test the jessie image next

[rhkean]

the jessie image is good

[Fourdee]

@rhkean I'll debug the Wheezy image today. Thanks for testing and confirming Jessie.

warning: bad ps syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'?

Yep, looks that way. Jessie is too kind and allows ps aux and ps -aux :)

[rhkean]

oh that's not a kindness.... its a new "feature" of ps.... it now supports posix, bsd, and gnu style options... and they're different. "-a" and "a" are 2 different options now... the man page specifically calls out the "ps aux" and "ps -aux" are different. I think its rather obnoxious.

here's a quick link: http://manpages.debian.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ps&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=Debian+8+jessie&format=html&locale=en

[Fourdee]

@rhkean

dietpi.txt file. mysql failed

Was this via a webserver stack automation setting?

[Fourdee]

man page specifically calls out the "ps aux" and "ps -aux" are different. I think its rather obnoxious.

"Welcome to Linux" lol :)

Resolved warning: bad ps syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'? by using ps ax.

[rhkean]

probably. I haven't looked at the specifics of the settings is a while. I just created a patch file from my v106 dietpi.txt and applied it to the v109. I can send you the file. Actually you should already have it from the fuzon forum... http://fuzon.co.uk/phpbb/download/file.php?id=224

[Fourdee]

Thanks. I'll give it a try now.

[Fourdee]

@rhkean Ok, installation went fine. No Mysql errors, its running fine.

I did find an error in your dietpi.txt:

AUTO_Locale=en_GB en_US

Causes:

-bash: export: `en_US.UTF-8': not a valid identifier

Resolution: You should use only 1 language entry, eg: AUTO_Locale=en_US

We do have a known issue with AUTO_Locale not applying on Jessie. Not sure if its the same with Wheezy but I'll look into it after v109 is out. https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/issues/174

[Fourdee]

I think the Wheezy image has some problems... several "cannot stat /proc/...." messages during boot

I believe this has been here since the dawn of time on Wheezy. As far as I can tell, its not DietPi specific and it also occurs on the official Raspbian Wheezy image.

Appears RPi have removed Wheezy from the downloads page. Looks like they are phasing it out: https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/

[Fourdee]

@rhkean As far as I can tell, everything is now resolved with automation and the new images. I will release v109 now.

If we experience any further issues related to this ticket, we can reopen and patch in v110.
