Installation failes due to missing repos

[anttisep]

Hi,

The installation of latest image fails due to some missing repos. From /var/log/raspbian-ua-netinst.log: [openHABian] Adding openHAB 2 Snapshot repositories to sources.list.d... FAILED

The reason can be found while manually running /opt/openhabian/openhabian-setup.sh:

W: Failed to fetch https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/job/openHAB-Distribution/ws/distributions/openhab-offline/target/apt-repo/Packages  HttpError404
W: Failed to fetch https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/job/openHAB-Distribution/ws/distributions/openhab-online/target/apt-repo/Packages  HttpError404

Thank you for all your efforts and Best Regads,

• Antti

Hello, I just had the same thing, 2 install failed last night and this morning too.

Thank you for your work, Regards,

It appears that the installer is using cloudbees Jenkins workspace as a repository. As the previous Jenkins build was aborted, the build artifacts are missing from workspace. Until new (successful) build is triggered, installer can't install packages. Future installations will occasionally fail if e.g. Jenkins build is ongoing. So this isn't openhabian bug as itself, but an alternative solution for installer to fetch packages might be a worth of something to look into.

Temporary ugly workaround: 1) After failed installation, log into the system. 2) Modify /opt/openhabian/openhabian-setup.sh:

• In function openhab2_addrepo() comment out (or remove) the two lines which are adding the failing repositories:

  # echo "deb https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/job/openHAB-Distrib.... >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openhab2.list
  # echo "deb https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/job/openHAB-Distrib.... >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openhab2.list

• In function openhab2_install() comment out line: # cond_redirect apt -y install openhab2-offline 3) Manually fetch and install last successful artifact:

  wget https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/job/openHAB-Distribution/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/distributions/openhab-offline/target/openhab2-offline-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.deb
  dpkg -i openhab2-offline-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.deb

  4) Remove missing repository entry: rm -f /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openhab2.list 5) Restart unattended setup: /opt/openhabian/openhabian-setup.sh unattended 6) Remove failed installation notification file and create successful file:

  rm /home/pi/openHABian-install-failed
  touch /home/pi/openHABian-install-successful

  7) Reboot

The repository seems to have come back available. Closing this issue.

Hey @anttisep you should just have waited :D The problem is unfortunate for sure. I hope/believe this problem will not occur with the new repository available soon. From the instructions you posted I get the impression that yo dug deep into the openHABian scripts. Nice work ;)
