Install and check whiptail #100

Closed JoergPi closed 7 years ago

JoergPi commented 7 years ago

Hi all,

I tried a fresh install today using openhabianpi-ua-netinst-20170218-git11d8ebc.img. Basic installation worked well, but I could not start openhabian-config:

[18:27:15] openhabian@openHAB:~$ sudo openhabian-config
2017-02-20_18:27:18_CET [openHABian] Checking for root privileges... OK
2017-02-20_18:27:18_CET [openHABian] Loading configuration file '/etc/openhabian.conf'... OK
If you wish so. Bye Bye! :)
2017-02-20_18:27:18_CET [openHABian] Checking for default openHABian username:password combination... OK

2017-02-20_18:27:18_CET [openHABian] We hope you got what you came for! See you again soon ;)
[18:27:18] openhabian@openHAB:~$ sudo /opt/openhabian/openhabian-setup.sh

My fault?

ThomDietrich commented 7 years ago

Interesting. Could you please maximize your SSH window before starting openhabian-config. Which SSH client are you using?

JoergPi commented 7 years ago

Hi ThomDietrich,

that's openssh from xubuntu 16.04. Even with a 4k fullscreen window the same behaviour ...

JoergPi commented 7 years ago

btw,

is it possible to change the username in the install config (like I did successfully with the network setting) to my standard user name or will I run into trouble with the default user checking?

JoergPi

ThomDietrich commented 7 years ago

Oh :-/ I have an idea which change brought this upon us, don't know why this happens though. Could you play around with the Height and Width of the menu please (bring the Width below 80).

Modify the file /opt/openhabian/openhabian-setup.sh: https://github.com/openhab/openhabian/blob/master/openhabian-setup.sh#L1184-L1185

Yes you can change the username. Directly after flashing change username and userpw in installer-config.txt

JoergPi commented 7 years ago

Tanks, i will try as soon as i am back Home ...

JoergPi commented 7 years ago

So,

got back, changed the settings to different values between 60 and 120, did run the changed script and the opebhabian-config command every time, checked with putty from a win10-install - but no effect at all ...

JoergPi commented 7 years ago

Ha, got it: whiptail is not installed after initial install run! "apt install whiptail" did the magic ;-)

JoergPi

ThomDietrich commented 7 years ago

Oh, hahaha that's funny. Whiptail should definitely be available on the system. I'll add it to Basic Packages and include a test if the command is known. Thanks for making me aware!!

JoergPi commented 7 years ago

I have to thank you for your work with OpenHabian!

ThomDietrich commented 7 years ago

@JoergPi I've added the needed change as a PR. It still riddles me, why was whiptail not installed on your system? The reason why I never noticed it not being part of the installation process is, that the openhabian image already includes it to begin with. What's going on there?

JoergPi commented 7 years ago

No idea, I did a headless install. Is there an install log somewhere on the CF to check for install errors?

JoergPi

ThomDietrich commented 7 years ago

Yes, the file is called something similar to /var/log/raspbian_ua_netinst.log. Only the last few lines in this file are important.

JoergPi commented 7 years ago

Hmm,

the last few lines of the raspbian_ua_netinst.log:

Looking at the whole log, there are a lot of dependency warnings before and a did a search for "whiptail" but without match. Is there a way to attach / send a file without displaying the full and lengthy content here?

ThomDietrich commented 7 years ago

I've solved it.

I saw this error before: grep: /proc/cpuinfo: No such file or directory Throughout the code of openhabian-setup.sh (the same as openhabian-config) there are checks for a few platforms and operation systems. While in the unattended installation phase, the RPi can not be identified by the most reliable method I've found, hence I've implemented a simple check: if [ "$hostname" == "openHABianPi" ]. You've changed the hostname, hence the Pi can not be identified, hence no Pi specific actions are executed. Let's see what would install whiptail as a dependancy:

[18:07:57] pi@openHABianPi:~$ apt-cache rdepends whiptail
whiptail
Reverse Depends:
  simbamond
  raspi-config
 |ssh-agent-filter
  squeak-vm
  signing-party
  refdb-clients
 |rcconf
 |psfontmgr
  pppoeconf
 |pppconfig
  module-assistant
 |gkdebconf
 |gammu
 |defoma
 |debian-goodies
  debconf
 |debconf
 |alsa-utils

Let me guess, raspi-config is not installed on your system!? ;)

ThomDietrich commented 7 years ago

I've added one more condition to the PR. Could you please test the following on your RPi?

if [ "$hostname" == "openHABianPi" ] || [ "$boot_volume_label" == "openHABian" ]; then echo "Yay!!"; fi
JoergPi commented 7 years ago

Exactly: no rapsiconfig on my pi3 and yes, I changed the hostname directly after flashing. Copied the bash-script-line into a script fiel and executed it: no output.

OK, than I would re-install now and change the hostname afterwards (or may never ;-).

JoergPi commented 7 years ago

And, at least, it's a key lesson: "what can be changed by DAU that will be changed by DAU - sooner or later"

;-)))

Does someone know the english version of DAU?

ThomDietrich commented 7 years ago

I have to excuse the command above, it will not work without another. However I'm certain it should do the job. I'll merge PR now - so I hope you didn't try the reinstall yet... Please reinstall WITH changed hostname, so we can make sure it in fact works now ;) I want this to be a feature, even in unadvertised. I made sure it's also supported with the pine64 image, which actually took some time.

Google tells me the translation would be Luser, I've never heard that though. Maybe just noob? Hehe. However, the fact that you actively and professionally interact in a GitHub Issue ticket disqualifies you for that. Sorry.

JoergPi commented 7 years ago

Hi,

I founf my spare SD card and just performed a fresh install with changed hostname after flashing and it worked well:

You need to use ``` Try it now ;)

Ah, I used the "insert code" button and this puts a single apostroph (or whatever this lettes is named) and the cursor in between...

ThomDietrich commented 7 years ago

😉👍 Is the extra single OK line really there?
