[Solved] pimatic-dht-sensor installation fails on OSMC Release 10.2016

---

I get this error by installing dht22 plugin:

Error installing plugin pimatic-dht-sensors: Error running “./node_modules/pimatic/ppm.js install pimatic-dht-sensors@0.9.2 --unsafe-perm”

Ideas?

I tried to install it manuell, then i get this:

osmc@DodOsmc:~/pimatic-app$ sudo npm install pimatic-dht-sensors@0.9.2 --unsafe-perm
\
> node-dht-sensor@0.0.31 preinstall /home/osmc/pimatic-app/node_modules/pimatic-dht-sensors/node_modules/node-dht-sensor

It seems there is a library i didn’t have?

@mwittig @leader21 @Harry-van-der-Wolf
can you help?

@Dodo88 Did you install the BCM2835 library as indicated in the README?
https://www.npmjs.com/package/pimatic-dht-sensors

I try this

wget http://www.airspayce.com/mikem/bcm2835/bcm2835-1.50.tar.gz;
tar xvfz bcm2835-1.50.tar.gz;
cd bcm2835-1.50;
./configure;
make;
sudo make install

But the dht install in webgui abort and give me the same, the library install shows no error

The underlying node-dht-sensor package uses the checklib.sh .

If I install the bcm2835 library and issue the command to check it, I get

gcc -lbcm2835
/usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/4.9/../../../arm-linux-gnueabihf/crt1.o: In function `_start':
(.text+0x34): undefined reference to `main'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

On both of my systems. I think something is wrong with that checklib.sh script ot maybe not the chrecklib script but with the gcc install on raspbian based raspberrys.

@Harry-van-der-Wolf

Interesting. Thanks for spotting this. I think the problem is the BCM2835 build. Possibly related to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11116399/crt1-o-in-function-start-undefined-reference-to-main-in-linux

The error handling of the check-lib.sh script might be improved to work around the issue.

@Dodo88 As you can see I have forked the past 7 posts to a new thread as a thread should always fokus on a single topic.

yeah i see it, thx. I hope somebody find a solution soon I think positive

Does a Alternative exist @mwittig ?
Or have i to wait for a solution?

Does a Alternative exist

Well, pimatic-homeduino provides support for DHT11/22, but I have never used that. It may limited to a single sensor.

Regarding pimatic-dht-sensors I kindly ask you for patience. It may take a few day to get this fixed.

I have researched this a little bit further. I think the error is not a problem and can be neglected. The script checklib.sh works as expected as far as I can see. At least it does on Raspbian. I’ll need to revisit this using my OSMC setup, though.

Works for me. Tested on Raspi Pi B+ with OSMC Release 10.2016

Here is how I have installed the library bcm2835:

@mwittig
I did exact your steps (but raspberry pi 2 model b). I get the same error like on top.
In pimatic webgui i see this error:

Error installing plugin pimatic-dht-sensors: Error running "./node_modules/pimatic/ppm.js install pimatic-dht-sensors@0.9.2 --unsafe-perm"

The bcm2835 install-progress looks like yours.

@Dodo88 said in pimatic-dht-sensor installation fails on OSMC Release 10.2016:

I did exact your steps (but raspberry pi 2 model b).

According to what you wrote in your earlier post it seems like you have left out the step sudo make check, right?

I get the same error like on top.

Well, to be precise, it is not the same error.

I’ll have another go on Raspi2.

Please use markup to quote code command snippets. See https://forum.pimatic.org/topic/1179/how-to-post-code-on-the-forum. Thanks

@mwittig
Hm… Can you give me a step by step for my raspberry pi 2?
Should i give you my complete install path incl installing dht?

@mwittig @Harry-van-der-Wolf @leader21 can you watch over my install pls? Or somebody else?
I have an Raspberry Pi 2 Model B and the newest OSMC

This is my BCM2835 Install

Any Ideas?

It looks like there is something wrong with your libbcm2835a (//usr/local/lib/libbcm2835.a: error adding symbols: Bad value).
Can you do a: readelf -a -W /usr/local/lib/libbcm2835.a

This is a long shot but we need to start somewhere.

wrong!

It’s again something where a library can’t be found and you need to do the symlink (ln -s) that @mwittig earlier showed but I can find it back.

@Dodo88 said in pimatic-dht-sensor installation fails on OSMC Release 10.2016:

Any Ideas?

In my test setup I don’t have the symlink for “ld-linux.so.3” which set earlier for the homeduino stuff. May the symlink is breaking the bcm2835 build somehow or it is confusing the linker when called via node-gyp. I’ll check this and get back to you.
