Okay, can I get the slack channel link?

While doing "sudo service mysql start" on ubuntu it says "mysql : unrecognized service". I was following this for windows setup https://github.com/WikiEducationFoundation/WikiEduDashboard/blob/master/docs/ubuntu_wsl_setup.md

[marklocklear]

@Sapnajha19 probably a path issue. If you try closing and opening the Linux terminal does it work? Also check this out for more help https://stackoverflow.com/questions/56985500/mysql-unrecognized-service

[Sapnajha19]

Actually the service is named as mysqld instead of mysql, what should I do then?

[marklocklear]

Does the command mariadb work?

mysqld is the server executable (one of them) mysql is the command line client

[TheTrio]

Enabling systemd in WSL and then following the Linux guide should be an easier way I think. systemctl is easier to interact with than the old service commands.

Hey! I tried to run the script on macOS and got the following error

WARNING! This is a work in progress script. It has been tested to work for Fedora and debian-based systems.   There are individual operating system dependent scripts being called from this one.   You can find them in setup directory. The script for windows is still not complete.   You can use them as a starting point or as a reference. If you run into any errors while running this script,   please comment with your issue on https://github.com/WikiEducationFoundation/WikiEduDashboard/issues/1709   Please upload your logs for installation with your issue reports.   The logs can be found in the setup directory. If you can help improve this script,   We would love your contributions.

I think there is an issue with the conditions that evaluate the platform at the beginning of the script. I opened #5433 with the fix that worked for me

While running the Setup Script in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, mysql2 gem cannot be installed. Reason being this libmariadbclient-dev package is not available from the default repositories. This gave an error during mysql2 gem installation. I fixed it by installing this package libmariadb-dev as an alternative. Should it be updated in the Setup Script deb-setup.sh as well?

Yes, I think that makes sense.

[prathamVaidya]

Ok, i'll update and raise a PR.

[shruti862]

After setting up the development environment and starting it by running guard command ,this is what is showing to me ,how to resolve this

[prathamVaidya]

@shruti862 please mention the following details:

• what operating system are you using?
• while running the script have you encountered any errors?
• do you see any errors in log file found at setup/log.txt?

[shruti862]

@prathamVaidya

I am using Ubuntu. No I haven't encountered any errors while running the script

[TheTrio]

See the logs where you ran guard. That should be a good starting point to figure out what's wrong.

[shruti862]

I am unable to figure out the problem from the logs.

[shruti862]

@prathamVaidya @ragesoss This is the error I am encountering right now

[prathamVaidya]

@shruti862, the error you're encountering may be due to an incomplete MySQL setup. There is a logic to create a mysql account automatically, that might have failed during the setup script. which ubuntu version are you using? There must be some trace of failure in the setup log.txt. can you upload your log.txt and provide a link to it. Also are you using the latest pull? I fixed an error related to same issue few days ago.

[shruti862]

log.txt This is my log file @prathamVaidya I am using Ubuntu 22.04.3 I don't know how to create automatic mysql account

[prathamVaidya]

Here is your error: Building dependency tree... Reading state information... Package libmariadbclient-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source However the following packages replace it: libmariadb-dev-compat libmariadb-devc This package is not available on latest versions of ubuntu. I have fixed this issue in the script. It looks like you might be using an older version of master. Please confirm you are using master branch and do a git pull or sync fork (if using fork).

[shruti862]

I cloned the repo from the master branch to my local system

[prathamVaidya]

can you use this command and tell what is the output:

sudo apt-get install -y libmariadb-dev

[shruti862]

[prathamVaidya]

Found the reason. Installation is perfect. You have not run yarn start After running guard run yarn start in different terminal. Then the web page should be available.

[prathamVaidya]

@prathamVaidya @ragesoss This is the error I am encountering right now

though this is still unclear why. let me know if it works after the yarn command.

[shruti862]

I tried yarn start after guard command ,but still getting same error

[shruti862]

I am getting this thing while manually starting reddis server,

[prathamVaidya]

I am getting this thing while manually starting reddis server,

That is not a problem. The redis-server is already running that's why the port is already busy.

[prathamVaidya]

I tried yarn start after guard command ,but still getting same error

You can temporarily fix the issue by running these sql commands in mysql.

run sudo mysql

then enter following commands.

CREATE USER 'wiki'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'wikiedu';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON dashboard . * TO 'wiki'@'localhost';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON dashboard_testing . * TO 'wiki'@'localhost';

Try restarting guard again. IDK, why the script failed to run those.

[shruti862]

@prathamVaidya Issue resolved ,Thanks for ur help !

@prathamVaidya I am encountering the same issue as @shruti862 here while trying to setup the project on my local. Though I am running OSX. log.txt

I suspect the issue might be related to mysql setup, as there was a hiccup during the setup while populating the db. I tried running these commands as advised by you to Shruti -

Logs didn't show any signs of failure. Can you confirm if you have run yarn start or build command to generate frontend build.

If yes, there must be some error message when running the guard command. Check and share that.

[kan-ish]

I restarted everything and the issue seems to be resolved now (still don't know what the issue was). I restarted Redis, ran guard and yarn start again and the frontend did load. Although it was pretty slow (> 60 seconds). I restarted my machine and now everything seems to be running fine and as expected (seems like a machine issue but worth mentioning).

Thanks for the quick reply though!

@prathamVaidya I am getting internal server error then done the changes suggested by you above , Then I am getting this

[prathamVaidya]

@prathamVaidya I am getting internal server error then done the changes suggested by you above , Then I am getting this

Looks like you are opening the project from PORT 8080, use PORT 3000.

in one terminal use yarn start to start react project with live server. and in another terminal use guard to start ruby on rails.

In this project react application is build and then served by ruby on rails server. So you need to start both and then access the application at PORT 3000 and not 8080 (I believe its only for serving static assets and for syncing live changes).

[SainiAditya1]

I have made the above changes it still showing this

[SainiAditya1]

@prathamVaidya Please have a look

[prathamVaidya]

Looks like some issue from backend. Please provide logs or error screenshots of the guard command.

[SainiAditya1]

[prathamVaidya]

No errors in the SS.

• were there any errors during installation?

[SainiAditya1]

@prathamVaidya ,Now it's working fine with database migrations bin/rails db:migrate RAILS_ENV=development . Thanks for all your suggestions .
