[BUG] Could not import InfluxDB modules - (you may need to install the JSON::MaybeXS module)

pizzydizzy commented 1 month ago

Is there an existing issue for this?

[X] I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

After configuring the influxdb section, when the container starts it logs:

ERROR: Could not import InfluxDB modules, but InfluxDB host was configured: Can't locate JSON/MaybeXS.pm in @INC (you may need to install the JSON::MaybeXS module) (@INC entries checked: .. /usr/share/smokeping /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/local/share/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/core_perl /usr/share/perl5/core_perl) at /usr/local/share/perl5/site_perl/InfluxDB/HTTP.pm line 13. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/share/perl5/site_perl/InfluxDB/HTTP.pm line 13. Compilation failed in require at /usr/share/smokeping/Smokeping.pm line 4169.

Expected Behavior

No response

Steps To Reproduce

Create the container and configure the influxdb section configured in "Database" config file (at the end):

InfluxDB

host = database = timeout = 10 port = username = password =

Start the container and see logs on open the webgui:

Thanks for opening your first issue here! Be sure to follow the relevant issue templates, or risk having this issue marked as invalid.

Can you do docker exec -it smokeping apk add perl-json-maybexs and see if that is sufficient to resolve the dep issue? If so we can get it added to the image.

Done, but now it needs:

OK, this is going to be fun walking the dependencies.

Exec into a shell in the container and do:

apk add build-base perl-app-cpanminus perl-dev
cpanm Object::Result

And then try again; we'll have to keep going until we find all the deps. With any luck it'll just be that one.

Looks like Object::Result depends on Method::Signatures which is from 2017 and therefore fails its tests due to deprecated deps. Going to be horribly messy but might be able to do:

apk add build-base perl-app-cpanminus perl-dev
cpanm Method::Signatures --force
cpanm Object::Result

I was just dealing with it. It also needs:

cpanm InfluxDB::LineProtocol

Now it starts without errors and any dependencies issues.

OK, let me put a PR together to add all the bits
