/home/$USER/screenly/bin/upgrade_containers.sh does not exist

[ChameleonGeek]

Overview of the Issue

Installed Raspberry Pi OS lite (bookworm). After update/upgrade, ran bash <(curl -sL https://install-anthias.srly.io). Rebooted after the script completed. /home/$USER/screenly/ exists but is empty.

If I run sudo bash <(curl -sL https://install-anthias.srly.io), the script immediately fails with the error "/dev/fd/63: No such file or directory"

Whether I run with default permissions or after sudo su, the directory is empty. No errors are shown during the install process.

I am attempting this installation approach because installing Anthias via the Raspberry Pi imager results in an eternal hang at the Anthias splash screen. The system never displays any assets.

@nicomiguelino can you try to reproduce this?

[nicomiguelino]

@vpetersson, @ChameleonGeek I was able to reproduce the issue. Here's a part of what I've got after running the installation script on a Pi 4 running Bookworm:

+ sudo pip install cryptography==38.0.2
error: externally-managed-environment

× This environment is externally managed
╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try apt install
    python3-xyz, where xyz is the package you are trying to
    install.

    If you wish to install a non-Debian-packaged Python package,
    create a virtual environment using python3 -m venv path/to/venv.
    Then use path/to/venv/bin/python and path/to/venv/bin/pip. Make
    sure you have python3-full installed.

note: If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider. You can override this, at the risk of breaking your Python installation or OS, by passing --break-system-packages.
hint: See PEP 668 for the detailed specification.

You can also see the logs for more details.

anthias-bookworm-install-error-logs.log

From what I've got recently, the script works on Bulllseye (which is now considered legacy), but not on the latest stable release (Bookworm).

The install script needs adjustment.

I have the same problem, after installation file screenly is empty.

[Napsty]

Same here. Brand new Raspberry Pi 4, new install. Log:

Anthias requires a dedicated Raspberry Pi / SD card.
You will not be able to use the regular desktop environment once installed.

Do you still want to continue? (y/N)
Do you want Anthias to manage your network? This is recommended for most users because this adds features to manage your network. (Y/n)

Would you like to perform a full system upgrade as well? (y/N)

You need to reboot the system for the installation to complete. Would you like to reboot now? (y/N)

[Doxylamin]

You can bypass the restriction in place by PEP 668 (https://peps.python.org/pep-0668/) by removing or renaming the marker file. However, this is not a definitive fix and should still be properly adressed in the installation routine.

sudo mv /usr/lib/python3.11/EXTERNALLY-MANAGED /usr/lib/python3.11/EXTERNALLY-MANAGED.old

[Napsty]

Thanks @Doxylamin , your workaround works! But, as you mentioned, this should be fixed in the installation routine, I fully agree.
