Install issue (can neither install from .deb or .ipa package) #107

Closed eliluong closed 3 years ago

I have iPad Pro gen1 on iOS 13.6 that was jailbroken with checkra1n and has Cydia installed.

I installed libmryipc and libsmserver via deb files. These appear in Cydia as installed. Next I installed OpenSSL because SMServer required it. I initially tried to install SMServer using the deb file via Filza, but it returned an error when trying to read key.pem. So I SSH into the iPad and ran dpkg -i SMServer_0.7.3.deb and this installed successfully. I rebooted and ran checkra1n again. Unfortunately, I do not have an app icon on the screen, even though SMServer appears in Cydia install list.

If I try to install the ipa from Filza, it returns an error: Failed to open /private/var/installd/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installd.staging/temp.KgR35O/extracted/Payload : No such file or directory. I do have AppSync Unified installed (version 84.0) and other ipa have appropriately installed.

Thanks for your help.

I'd recommend installing the package via a package manager, such as Sileo or Zebra. I haven't yet tested installing it with dpkg extensively, so I can't be certain why it's not working. You can also just install it from the twickd repository, if you'd prefer not to go through the trouble of downloading a new deb for each update. (Edit: Twickd is down right now and may be for about a week, so you may not be able to do this right now, after all)

Also, as was brought up in #104, the ipa for versions 0.6.0 - 0.7.3 is corrupted; I messed up something in my build process for those versions. This should be fixed with version 0.7.4, though. so feel free to try that out if you'd still like to use the ipa instead of the deb.

Thanks, installing Zebra and then the SMServer deb via Zebra did the trick (tried to load twickd repo initially, but like you said, fire took our their datacenter).
