MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor-py3 and MMM-Callmonitor-Current-Call

said in MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor-py3 and MMM-Callmonitor-Current-Call:

I’m not sure if this is correct: In your config a username is missing. As far as I’m aware of you have to use a username/password combination - therefore I remember that I had to create a separate user for using the module.
Well, until now I didn’t need more. Everything is working fine except the arrows and colours. But I will see if sth. is needed.

That was the reason. Don`t know it shows the calls without a password but not the arrows.

Now everything is working fine.

Thanks a greets

@xiexodusix - I set up my MagicMirror from scratch and now wanted to integrate the FRITZ-Callmonitor to it, unfortunately with no luck. No calls are displayed, the phonebook has non-stop rotating icon. In the docker logs (Yes, I’m using latest MagicMirrorOS with integrated Docker) I get the following error:

As you can see, I have created username and password only for MM.

Starting fritzconnection from (host) commandline works, incomming calls are registered and shown in Terminal.

@Mathes75

probably python missing, see https://khassel.gitlab.io/magicmirror/faq/dependencies/#use-the-fat-image

You can change the image in the .env file.

Mathes75

@karsten13 to get this right: Using the fat image would have at least python on board. And to get everything to work I would need to add a script, adding the dependencies for MMM-FRITZ-Box-Callmonitor-py3:

Execute npm install to install the dependencies.
(Optional) Execute sudo apt-get install python3-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev zlib1g-dev && sudo pip install --break-system-packages fritzconnection to allow access to your FRITZ!Box phone book and recent calls. This can take a few minutes.

Will definitely give it a try!

Hello @karsten13,
I have changed the docker image to fat in .env file. Unfortunately, after pulling the docker image, the script stopped with error: No such container: 1b169eacdb711[~35 more numbers/letters].
Magic Mirror stopped working :( What did I do wrong?

karsten13

@Mathes75

which script?

show content of “the script” and output of docker compose config

Mathes75

@karsten13
Sorry for being that unspecific. I changed the .env file in the “Docker image to use” section:

# Docker Images to use:
MM_IMAGE="karsten13/magicmirror:v2.34.0_fat"
LABWC_IMAGE="karsten13/labwc:latest"
MMPM_IMAGE="karsten13/mmpm:latest"
WATCHTOWER_IMAGE="ghcr.io/nicholas-fedor/watchtower:latest"

Executed cd /opt/mm/run && docker compose up -d --force-recreate and the download started. After successfully pulling the image, Terminal stopped here:

@Mathes75

looks like there is an old container but no idea why docker is unable to remove it.

You can try

cd /opt/mm/run
docker compose down
docker rm -f $(docker ps -aq)
docker compose up -d

Mathes75

@karsten13
Doesn´t look good. I’m too noob about Docker to really understand what’s going on:

pi@magicmirrorMB:~ $ cd /opt/mm/run/
pi@magicmirrorMB:/opt/mm/run $ docker compose down

After last line just nothing happens. No prompt, no display on mirror.
Can I check where the strange container is called or where the reference is?

karsten13

@Mathes75

show docker ps -a.

From the logs it looks like the strange container was deleted but I see no labwc container.

What? There must be something completely wrong…

Mathes75

@karsten13
Is there a way to reload the images from scratch, delete them from the RPi without losing the customization?

karsten13

@Mathes75

really strange, the 1b1... is still there …

try docker system prune -f and check after this again docker ps -a

Mathes75

@karsten13

After docker compose down, prune resulted in Total reclaimed space: 0B .

I think the easiest way is to start from scratch. Save the config.js, remember the modules and just reinstall. Switch to fat image again and fiddle around with FRITZ stuff. Sorry for keeping you busy and thanks a lot for your help and patience!

Let me know if you want to finish troubleshooting ;-)

karsten13

@Mathes75

one thing (if not already done) would be a reboot and then again the prune command.

Otherwise start from scratch …

Mathes75

@karsten13

To make it short - same. Will start from scratch and let you know.

Mathes75

Short and final update on this - I give up.
Reimaged the card, edited the .env file before first start, so directly pulled the fat image. Set up my standard Modules, everything up and running - except MMM-FRITZ-BoxCallmonitor - and started to test mounts to map the fritzconnection Python scripts… as again, a strange container showed up:

pi@magicmirroros:/opt/mm/run $ docker compose up -d

Now I am sure my trusty SDcard is corrupt. Thanks @karsten13 for all the troubleshooting and help! I have learned a lot around Docker last days.

Will get a new card and see some time. Other projects requiring my attention.

@rkorell

Thank you for the adjustment. Now the pop-up window no longer freezes when calls are blocked. The installation worked as described here.

@MiPraSo cool! thanks for this confirmation.
Glad to hear it works for you!
