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

Harry van der Wolf

Yes, that is what I wanted to see, but my idea was wrong. It is not the symbols of the library but adding the symbols to the library.
Sorry.

What’s new @mwittig ? Could you find somewhat?

mwittig

@Dodo88 I have tried to rebuld everything with the symlink in place, as I suspected the symlink might cause build problems. However, everything works fine on my system. If you have spare SD-card maybe you can try a new setup with OSMC Release 10.2016 like I did?

For the current system setup you have, please make sure you gcc v4.9.x and node v4.6.2 installed.

I decided to do the readelf -a -W /usr/local/lib/libbcm2835.a again on my system.
I got:

My system is an RPi3 giving Linux rpi3 4.4.32-v7+ #924 SMP Tue Nov 15 18:11:28 GMT 2016 armv7l GNU/Linux when using uname -a. It is not so strange that my library is built differently although I do think it is weird that on my system I get a “v6” architecture while I’m running a “V7” debian armhf system. Something not entirely correct in the make files of the library?
The question now at @mwittig: Do you get the same symbols for that library as @Dodo88?

@Harry-van-der-Wolf said in pimatic-dht-sensor installation fails on OSMC Release 10.2016:

Do you get the same symbols for that library as @Dodo88?

No, I am also getting v6 on my OSMC test setup (Raspberry B+) and my Jessie setup on Raspi 3. Raspbian only provide a v6 build, while OSMC appears to provide v7 build for Raspi 2 & 3. This is not to be confused with a 64-bit build which would be v8 (Raspi 3, only).

If node has been installed for v7 I think node-gyp should be able to handle this.
@Dodo88 How did you install node?

@mwittig
I installed it like in my last Thread:
https://forum.pimatic.org/topic/2460/solved-installing-pimatic-0-9-osmc/20

I Think i will test a new fresh install on sd card, or?

Yes, please

Dodo88

@Harry-van-der-Wolf
I think you mean this post from @mwittig ?

"@Dodo88 Just to be sure check if the file exists:

sudo ls -l /home/osmc/pimatic-app/node_modules/pimatic-homeduino/node_modules/homeduino/bin/vhduino

and check the version

grep version /home/osmc/pimatic-app/node_modules/pimatic-homeduino/node_modules/homeduino/package.json

Can you please also post the plugin configuration you have for homeduino? "

Okay @mwittig i will re-install it asap. Can I copy the current config.json code in the new config.json @ new sd-installation? or better configure from beginning?

Thx so long guys

Dodo88

@mwittig @Harry-van-der-Wolf Guys…I Give Up…

I made a new Install on a fresh SD-Card with the newest OSMC (2016-10-31).
I post my Approach:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

wget https://nodejs.org/dist/v4.6.2/node-v4.6.2-linux-armv7l.tar.gz -P /tmp
cd /usr/local
sudo tar xzvf /tmp/node-v4.6.2-linux-armv7l.tar.gz --strip=1

sudo apt-get install build-essential git

sudo apt-get install npm

cd /home/pi
mkdir pimatic-app
npm install pimatic --prefix pimatic-app --production

cd pimatic-app
cp ./node_modules/pimatic/config_default.json ./config.json

Now Cofiguring the config.json file for my start (User,Password etc.pp), then

sudo node_modules/pimatic/pimatic.js

sudo node_modules/pimatic/pimatic.js start

sudo node_modules/pimatic/pimatic.js stop

cd ./node_modules/pimatic
sudo npm link

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pimatic/pimatic/v0.9.x/install/pimatic-init-d
sudo cp pimatic-init-d /etc/init.d/pimatic
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/pimatic
sudo chown root:root /etc/init.d/pimatic
sudo update-rc.d pimatic defaults

sudo service pimatic start

sudo ls -l /home/osmc/pimatic-app/node_modules/pimatic-homeduino/node_modules/homeduino/bin/vhduino
grep version /home/osmc/pimatic-app/node_modules/pimatic-homeduino/node_modules/homeduino/package.json

Now installing BCM235:

mkdir bcm2835

cd bcm2835/

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 check

sudo make install

when I make sudo ./node_modules/pimatic/ppm.js install pimatic-dht-sensors@0.9.2 --unsafe-perm

I get this again

osmc@DodOsmc:~$ sudo ./node_modules/pimatic/ppm.js install pimatic-dht-sensors@0.9.2 --unsafe-perm
sudo: ./node_modules/pimatic/ppm.js: command not found
osmc@DodOsmc:~$ cd pimatic-app

I Give Up

Please, don’t give up! I have one more

Please try to rebuild the BCM2835 library as follows:

$ wget http://www.airspayce.com/mikem/bcm2835/bcm2835-1.46.tar.gz
$ tar zxvf bcm2835-1.50.tar.gz
$ cd bcm2835-1.50
$ ./configure
$ make clear
$ make CFLAGS='-g -O2 -fPIC'
$ sudo make check
$ sudo make install

Following this, remove the pimatic-dht-sensors directory and restart pimatic

@mwittig
wow…it works, I’m speechless ^^ Thank You @mwittig!!! It wasn’t easy with me, i know. You’re very cool

one question if accepted? can I pin the dht22 on my arduino nano? or should i make a new thread?

Hey, that’s great! I am pleases to see the stuff is working now.

can I pin the dht22 on my arduino nano?

Note, pimatic-dht-sensors only supports Raspi GPIO!!! If you wish to connect a DHT sensor to the Arduino you can use pimatic-homeduino for this … https://github.com/pimatic/pimatic-homeduino#local-sensors
