[HELP] Unable to start TB Gateway 3.0.1 & Question about Remote Configurator #690

Closed jeffreylauck closed 2 years ago

jeffreylauck commented 2 years ago

Describe the issue I have done a clean installation of the TB Gateway on my Pi Zero today, however I am unable to start the gateway. Is it something to do with new v3.0.1 of the Gateway?

Also, I am reinstalling the TB Gateway in the hope of making the "Remote Configurator" to work on the gateway. I was trying to use the Remote Configurator widget on the server to configure the gateway connectors but had no luck yet. May I know if it is a completed feature, and if any documentation is available?

Thanks!

Configuration (Attach your configuration file) I am using the config from the doc

I have also tried to install the latest v3.0.1 Gateway onto the same Raspberry Pi Zero (OS: Raspbian 10), no luck. But when I then install it on a Raspberry Pi 4 (OS: Raspbian 11), it is able to run. Does it mean the latest TB Gateway cannot be run on Pi Zero?

Hi @jeffreylauck, can you send the complete log of Gateway starting? Thanks for your interest in ThingsBoard IoT Gateway!

@samson0v Hi, thanks for following up.

I have found a solution, it seems that the wheel for grpcio published on PyWheel doesn't support armv6 (see https://github.com/grpc/grpc/issues/26474)

As a workaround, I tried installing grpcio from the deb packages first, as mentioned in the above issue post

sudo apt-get install python3-grpcio

And then following the installation guide on thingsboard-gateway website, 

git clone https://github.com/thingsboard/thingsboard-gateway.git
cd thingsboard-gateway
python3 setup.py install
mkdir logs
python3 ./thingsboard_gateway/tb_gateway.py

Now the gateway is able to run. image

It seems that the problem is due to incompatibility of grpcio from pywheel with armv6 architecture.

Thanks and I will close the issue.
