Installing on ARM (stretch) doesn't work #16

Closed roukydesbois closed 6 years ago

roukydesbois commented 6 years ago

Hello there!

I just tried to install Kresus on my yunohost via the web admin interface and it didn't work. I have a LIME2 ARM board, with Stretch and the latest versions of the ynh tools. Here are the logs from yunohost-api.log:

I'm happy to be a guinea pig for further debug, please tell me where to look!

Hello, thanks for having taken time to open this issue.

Can you please launch following command as root on your lime2 and write back what it respond ?

arch

Can you also install following packages before installation:

libxslt-dev libjpeg-dev libxml2-dev

If after these packages and kresus installations all is up and running, then we can follow this recommended fix. ;-)

If not, then we can go on digging the root cause. :-/

roukydesbois commented 6 years ago

Hello @LowMem

Thanks for your answer.

Running arch displays: armv7l

For your information, when I apt-get install the list of package you provided me, I get this message before I accept to install: Note, selecting 'libxslt1-dev' instead of 'libxslt-dev'

installation of the packages went ok. I installed Kresus from the web admin, and here is the messages I get from the web admin (sorry for the antichronological order, not my fault ^^):

/usr/local/n wasn't deleted because it doesn't exist.

So, I don't have virtualenv. Is it supposed to be installed during the installation, or is it a prerequisite?

Thanks for your help!

roukydesbois commented 6 years ago

Short news: installing virtualenv prior to the installation makes me go a few steps forward, but I'm still facing errors:

It might just be that my board is not powerful (it was quite loaded during the install), but where can I look for more details about the python errors at the beginning?

Jibec commented 6 years ago

The Python install we have require a lot of package generation. It require significant RAM and will use swap space if it isn't sufficient. I'm personally not confident with the myth we can have a multipurpose server on such a small board. For issues like this one. Anyway, I'll try to have more package installed trough Debian packages. But I'm pretty sure we'll have compatibility issues with source code soon.

roukydesbois commented 6 years ago

I quite agree with you, because even if i manage to install it I'm not sure it will run nicely afterwards. So probably the best fix for this issue is to add some warning/requirements to have a powerful enough machine if Kresus is to be installed along with other apps, or that it should be alone, or at least not installed on the same board as resources heavy other apps, don't you think?

Jibec commented 6 years ago

Nope, running the software won't require much power. It really is an installation issue since pip will compile it locally. Lxml for example is quite a big piece of software. I'll try to fix it, but it will take some time, but I won't forget you ;)

ZeHiro commented 6 years ago

Normally we can install python-lxml from debian repos. I need to check if works first, but it should be ok according to Weboob team

Jibec commented 6 years ago

Indeed, but I'm not afraid by lxml. To enable the usage of Debian package by pip, we have to enable the whole virtualenv to use Debian package. And we can't be 100% sure which packages are installed, because each server uses different lists. The issue comes with the app dependencies, some Debian packages might be too old and result in an installation failure. But I'll try, you'll tell us if it works.

ZeHiro commented 6 years ago

Well, we have a problem, python-lxml is already installed by debian, but pip installs it in the virualenv....

Jibec commented 6 years ago

can you please try the testing branch?

sudo yunohost app install https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/kresus_ynh/tree/testing --debug
or
sudo yunohost app upgrade kresus -u https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/kresus_ynh/tree/testing --debug
roukydesbois commented 6 years ago

Man, you rock! It installed smoothly. Do you want me to send some logs for you to make sure everything went as you expected?

Jibec commented 6 years ago

I'm glad you liked it, I got some help too. No logs needed, just keep having patience and to report issues. It helps a lot.
