Alexa Installation Freeze at 95%, How to fix it? #151

Closed iamsujay closed 3 years ago

iamsujay commented 3 years ago

I have force shut down the Pi after it stops responding. Then I wait 10-20 seconds and again power-up my Pi and use the same command sudo /home/pi/Assistants-Pi/scripts/installer.sh and Select > 2 for Alexa installation.

after that, I getting the below logs in my terminal. And it is still stuck in 95%. I have shut down and started the Pi 5 times and repeat the process but nothing seemed to works. Please give me a solution.

I had the same problem. With me it was caused by overheating of the Pi SOC. Remedy: 1 - Provide good cooling of the processor. or 2 - Only use one core to build the Alexa software. In the current software the number of cores is limited to two by commands such as: make SampleApp -j2. After you have run sudo /home/pi/Assistants-Pi/scripts/installer.sh for the first time a number of command files (.sh) are created that contain the make command. To find these use: `find /home/pi/Assistants-Pi/ -type f -name ".sh" -exec grep -l "j2" {} \;` In my case five files were found:

/home/pi/Assistants-Pi/Alexa/setup.sh /home/pi/Assistants-Pi/Alexa/avs-device-sdk/tools/Install/setup.sh /home/pi/Assistants-Pi/Alexa/avs-device-sdk/tools/Install/pi.sh /home/pi/Assistants-Pi/Alexa/test.sh /home/pi/Assistants-Pi/Alexa/pi.sh

In all these files I replaced -j2 by -j1 and ran the command sudo /home/pi/Assistants-Pi/scripts/installer.sh again. Now the processor load was low enough to avoid overheating and to successfully complete the installation. I'm not sure which of the *.sh files are actually used, but who cares. After these changes of course it will take even longer than before to finish the install.

PS Note that you also have to issue the command: sudo chmod +x /home/pi/Assistants-Pi/Alexa/start.sh to enable proper start-up of the alexa.service after reboot.

Success...
