First installation stops / fails

Jeroen

Hi all,

This is my first night and attempt with the Raspberry (Pi3 model B, in my case) and Pimatic.
This is also my first post in your forum so excuse me for being ‘blond’ or posting at the wrong section.

I’ve been waiting 2 impatient months for my package to arrive from the far-East but at last I received it this afternoon and I couldn’t wait a minute longer to install. There are so many ideas and sollutions and great things in my mind they need to get out
But having said that… how to get there?? As it seems that my install fails just steps before the finish

Done so far:

I Installed ‘2017-09-07-raspbian-stretch-lite’ on SD (8GB) card, loaded into Raspberry and booted.
I’ve made SSH (Putty) connectin to my device
Followed all steps as described here ‘https://pimatic.org/guide/getting-started/’ succesfully until:

‘https://pimatic.org/guide/getting-started/running/’ and more precise after the command ‘pi@raspberrypi:~/pimatic-app $ sudo node_modules/pimatic/pimatic.js’ a lot of actions rolled over the screen but than it seems to stuck as printscreen below shows.

Please advice
Txs Jeroen

Hi. Welcome to pimatic! The log messages just indicate warnings as far as I can see and the last message indicates the web application service has been started! Try to pimatic url in the web browser and you’ll see.

@mwittig does it work if he didnt set the server up?

22:03:23.117 [pimatic] You have no HTTPS and no HTTP server enabled!

Good spot, I missed this one. Just wondering why that is as the default configuration contains a valid HTTP server configuration. @Jeroen please double-check your config along the lines of http://www.pimatic.org/docs/pimatic/config-schema.html. You need to have a valid httpServerconfiguration to start with.

Jeroen

Hi goodmorning,
I think my putty session timed out. When I made a new session last night I got the expected propt back.
And yes I thought that even assuming to follow the default instructions I don’t have a valid http(s) server loaded.

entering the IP address in my browser led to nothing
although starting the webserver gives no error, restarting or stop it showed it’s not loaded.

That was at least the situation yesterday when I rested my case and went of to bed (02:30 is a fair time right)
This morning I just gave it a try typing this message to replicate some screens to add into it and…IT WORKED.
E.T. must have stopped by last night.

Anayway.
With a very very very basic config script I’m ready to explore all the next goodies of PiMatic.

Thanks… and I’ll be back for more

Jeroen
