Lots of issues with the install and run process #153

Open ghost opened 2 years ago

ghost commented 2 years ago

i've been trying to install hoff on my own server, but have run into several issues. Hold onto your sock, sandals, shoes or any combination thereof, because this is gonna be a long one, with a lot of logs

but following the instructions here don't seem to work properly for me.

using nix version: nix (Nix) 2.10.3 OS: Archlinux

  1. trying to get into a nix shell: 

    $ nix run -c $SHELL
error: unrecognised flag '-c'
Try 'nix --help' for more information.

    it does work with nix-shell --run $SHELL

  2. when trying to build the binary, i get this error:

    $ ./build-binary.sh
./build-binary.sh: line 10: stack: command not found

    was fixed with nix-env -i stack

  3. once that ran, this is an error that seems to generally haunt me:

    warning: Nix search path entry './nixpkgs-pinned.nix' does not exist, ignoring

  4. when running first time, i got this error:

Building with --split-objs is enabled. Note that this feature is EXPERIMENTAL, and its behavior may be changed and improved. You will need to clean your workdirs before use. If you want to compile all dependencies with split-objs, you will need to delete the snapshot (and all snapshots that could reference that snapshot).

i fixed that by removing the `--split-objs` flags present in `package/build-binary.sh`
then it built the binary properly, yay

5. but then when trying to run it with the following config:
```json
{
  "projects": [{
    "owner": "OpenThingies",
    "repository": "OpenMoodServer",
    "branch": "mistress",
    "testBranch": "testing",

    "stateFile": "/var/lib/hoff/state/OpenThingies/OpenMoodServer.json"
  }],
  "secret": "*******************",

  "tls": null,
  "user": {

    "email": "hoff@openthingies.com",
    "sshConfigFile": "/etc/hoff/ssh_config"
  },
  "mergeWindowExemption": ["hoffbot"],
  "trigger": {
    "commentPrefix": "@Operator-9O"
  }
}

i get the following error (and it stops running:

i wonder how many people outside of @channable had this issue. I've been going up and down in the repo, trying to see where i went wrong (other than using arch on a server), but i cannot find further info, so i thought i'd leave an issue.

$ nix run -c $SHELL
error: unrecognised flag '-c'
Try 'nix --help' for more information.

This subcommand was present in Nix 2.3, but later versions of Nix made breaking changes to it. You can get the installer for 2.3 here, or if you have any other version of Nix already, you can also 

nix-store --realise /nix/store/9hkh1fx8z1frgbz2nawr0mnyvizrb8yk-nix-2.3.15

and then use bin/nix from inside there. (This is the store path for x64 Linux.) Then nix run --command $SHELL should work, and that should solve the issue of Stack not being found.

Do /var/lib/hoff/checkouts and /var/lib/hoff/state exist, and does the user that you are running Hoff as have write permission in these directories? (I suspect the “no such file or directory” error in the second message is not about the .json.new file, which it tries to create, but about the parent directory.)

to avoid confusion: that @Dragonsight91 up there is my private account here's an overview of /var/lib/hoff this is after fixing the nix issue, that worked, thanks for that

both exist and it was able to write the repository to /var/lib/hoff/checkouts

oh and i found another issue, when trying to build a package:
