SOLVED git issues after automatic install

benjay

Dear all,

I hope you can quickly provide support for this. After I did a successful installation of mm2 on my PI2 - I’d like to download & install new modules now. Unfortunately, GIT seems to be in a kind of hanging state and I`m a total noob to GIT.

Please check some of the RCs I get when trying to install a 3rd Party module.

As an example --> This happens when I try to clone a repository to my modules folder:

pi@MAGICMIRROR:~/MagicMirror/modules $ git clone https://github.com/rseidt/MMM-bringList
Cloning 'MMM-bringList' ...
remote: Enumerating objects: 22, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (22/22), done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (15/15), done.
error: Could not create temporary file: The argument is invalid
fatal: failed to write object
fatal: unpack-objects failed

OK, so far so good - seems like GIT has an issue with my local repos. I tried already GIT with the argument GIT rebase which leads to the following output:

pi@MAGICMIRROR:~/MagicMirror/modules $ git rebase
error: rebase not possible: You have changes that are not marked for commit.
error: Please commit the changes or use "stash".

Running the stash option - this asks me to provide an email etc. - so no option to move onwards.

So quick break here - hope one of you - guys have an idea how to solve this.

cheers

@benjay from the MagicMirror folder do

git status
df -k

which auto install script did u use? linked from MagicMirror github readme page?
if so, erase MagicMirror/installers/dumpactivemodules.js

then run the updated installer

see here

Hi Sam,

thx - so here we go:

pi @ MAGICMIRROR: ~ / MagicMirror $ git status
On branch master
Your branch is on the same level as 'origin / master'.

Changes that are not marked for commit:
  (use "git add <file> ..." to mark the commit changes)
  (use "git checkout - <file> ..." to discard the changes in the working directory)

        changed: package-lock.json

Unversioned files:
  (use "git add <file> ..." to mark the commit changes)

        0
        core

no commit commit changes (use "git add" and / or "git commit
 -a")

df -k returns (imho engough space left):

pi@MAGICMIRROR:~/MagicMirror $ df -k

The file MagicMirror/installers/dumpactivemodules.js has been erased/moved to temp folder (/home/pi/temp).

Yep - for installation - I used the CMD (user PI) from the README as below:
bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/master/installers/raspberry.sh)"

I tried the update script as mentioned in the related link- please find the RCs below:

pi@MAGICMIRROR:~/MagicMirror $ curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh | bash

Please rename the ~/MagicMirror folder and try again.

and again GIT status returns the same as above.

@benjay ok, both install and update have bugs on the official page…

because u have moved patially to 2.10, you need to do this to update

bash -c  "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/upgrade-script.sh)" force

I can’t tell what u wanted to do…

install is 1st time (using raspberry.sh)
update is every quarter (using update_script.sh)

benjay

Hi,

thx for the hint. I did the “forced” update as requested:

pi@MAGICMIRROR:~/MagicMirror $ bash -c  "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubuserconten                                      t.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/upgrade-script.sh)" force
the log will be /home/pi/MagicMirror/installers/upgrade.log
No LSB modules are available.
doing test run = false
update log will be in /home/pi/MagicMirror/installers/upgrade.log

upgrading from version 2.10.0 to 2.10.0
fetching latest revisions
updating MagicMirror runtime, please wait

> magicmirror@2.10.0 install /home/pi/MagicMirror

Unfortunately the GIT status is still reporting issues (same as before)

reboot it was

@benjay Unfortunately the GIT status is still reporting issues (same as before)

those aren’t issues

the package-lock.json is generated by the npm install, so its new and changed.

the 0 is a bug from the installer once
and the core is some dump from npm/node crashing at some time.

all is good…
(git status in the MagicMirror folder should show the same output after reboot)
