Alarmpi service failed to start

[majbah-ha]

Yesterday fresh installed alarmpi on raspberry pi 4, the installation went without error. When tried to start the program the alarm pi service failed with the following error

● alarmpi.service - AlarmPI Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/alarmpi.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Thu 2022-11-10 02:08:43 GMT; 6h ago Process: 366 ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 /opt/AlarmPI/run.py (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Main PID: 366 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) CPU: 1.316s

I installed alarm pi on my ubuntu desktop to verify, which also failed with the same error.

Please look at the problem and I am glad to hear your suggestions.

Thanks in advance

I can't seem to replicate the issue you have. Please send me the output of this command:

pip freeze | grep -i flask

[majbah-ha]

Thank you for quick replay here is the outcome

Flask==2.2.2 Flask-Login==0.6.2 Flask-SocketIO==4.3.1

[bkbilly]

I still can't seem to find why you are having this issue. Please send me the whole output of:

pip freeze

Also try running it manually:

cd /opt/AlarmPI/
sudo python run.py

Try this:

cd /opt/AlarmPI/
sudo pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -r requirements.txt

and try running it again.

You can try upgrading one of the packages to the latest version, but it's untested:

sudo pip install -U flask-socketio

[majbah-ha]

That did work partially I got now one error

[majbah-ha]

Ok it seems to be working, but

I changed /usr/local/lib/python3.9/dist-packages/flask_socketio/init.py allow_unsafe_werkzeug=True

then I got this seems everything ok

Which OS did you install on your raspberry? You can find it with this:

lsb_release -a

[majbah-ha]

alarmpi@alarmpi:~ $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Debian Description: Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye) Release: 11 Codename: bullseye

I am using this Raspberry Pi OS Lite Release date: September 22nd 2022 System: 64-bit Kernel version: 5.15 Debian version: 11 (bullseye)

Shall I try the other versions with desktop may be it makes a difference?

[bkbilly]

I am also using this, but it works for me... The only thing I would suggest is create a fresh installation of your OS and try installing it again. I don't know why it doesn't work for you and how it can be fixed...

[majbah-ha]

Ok I will try that, but it was a fresh install already. I trust you are right, there is something wrong I need to figure out.

I will keep you posted.

Thanks for you time

[bkbilly]

@majbah-ha Do you have any update for this issue?

[majbah-ha]

Sadly I keep getting the same result even on a fresh install. I am using a CM4 as hardware, maybe it will make a difference if I install it on Rpi 4 or 3 which I also have. I will try that once I am back from vacation.

[bkbilly]

I stumbled upon this error myself and I figured out how to solve this. I've updated the requirements and the code, so you will have to update to the new version.

[bkbilly]

I am considering this issue fixed. Feel free to reopen it if you have still issues.
