Cannot build on BeagleBoneBlack Angstrom Linux

[rlemon]

trying to install the package from npm I'm getting the following errors:

I will admit I am horrible at understanding these npm errors and If i'm missing a dependency and just not seeing it I'm sorry.

Maybe you don't have git client? Show me more info, send me please /home/root/dm/npm-debug.log file. Try run command ./make_libmodbus.sh && node-gyp configure --python=python2 && node-gyp build manualy from ./node_modules/modbus/ dirrectory and show me log.

Here is a dump of the full error: https://gist.github.com/rlemon/75c3d92bc7617ce31c56

At the top you can see my node / npm versions.

Just to verify that it wasn't my local version of node on the BBB I tried this from my Ubuntu VM and got the same results. I had a friend try on Arch and reported back that it worked (same node version and npm version)

[chaser92]

Have you symlinked python2? If not, sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python2

After that, try installing autoreconf (sudo apt-get install dh-autoreconf)

[rlemon]

Thanks guys. I'll try this and get back to you if I am still having issues.

[rlemon]

@tuxnsk

Package autoconf (2.69-r10.1) installed in root is up to date.

@chaser92 symlink is there - made double sure by rm'ing it and re creating it. Still getting the same errors (I only tested this on Angstrom linux on the BBB itself).

Angstrom it a very limited version of linux and I may still be missing some dependencies (sorry kinda new to node and npm).

[chaser92]

The package you need is dh-autoreconf, not (or not only) autoconf. If still not working, send me full npm-debug.log in a PM.

[rlemon]

Unfortunately that isn't available for Angstrom under that name. I'll continue looking for it by another name. BTW I'm using the opkg package manager. On Jan 22, 2014 5:09 PM, "chaser92" notifications@github.com wrote:

[chaser92]

I know opkg, but never used Angstrom. Try building autoreconf (GNU autotools, if I recall?) from source. I am sure there exists a package way though, because it's a very popular package utility for building things from source code.

[rlemon]

It probably is just under a different name. I will continue looking tonight, little burnt out now.. Been attempting yo get modbus communication going for ten straight workdays now. On Jan 22, 2014 6:08 PM, "chaser92" notifications@github.com wrote:

Okay so I have verified all of those packages and they are installed. I've been messing around and think the issue is that I am not getting libmodbus from /stephane/libmodbus.git

# git clone https://github.com/stephane/libmodbus.git
Cloning into libmodbus...
error:  while accessing https://github.com/stephane/libmodbus.git/info/refs

fatal: HTTP request failed

I will continue looking for a workaround for this. note: # git clone git://github.com/stephane/libmodbus.git works.

[rlemon]

Okay so last ditch effort - cloned the repo, changed the protocol and ran npm install --unsafe-perm from the local directory and i'm getting make errors

Any help getting this module installed and working would be appreciated. I've been trying to get a modbus library working for a few weeks now and am having no luck at all (I need to read/write serial RTU).

[chaser92]

I've recently forked the jsModbus lib. It initially supported only TCP, but I'm in the process of adding RTU support. It's not perfect but I'm going to use it in production, and it supports (unlike other libs) multiple device addresses. Try it at github.com/chaser92/jsModbus (it's in alpha stage, in particular the timeouts are way too large right now)
