python and flexget support (add-on)

[SalzStreuer]

Hi Jocko,

I got 4 500GB disks as RAID5 (this also included the sda disk).
And another 4TB on bay5.

My fvdw share was created in /share/1100/

Code: Select all

# mount

/dev/root on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,barrier=1,data=ordered)
none on /proc type proc (rw,relatime)
none on /sys type sysfs (rw,relatime)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,relatime,mode=600)
/dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,barrier=1,data=ordered)
none on /proc type proc (rw,relatime)
none on /sys type sysfs (rw,relatime)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,relatime,mode=600)
/dev/sda5 on /rw_fs type ext3 (rw,noatime,errors=continue,barrier=1,data=ordered)
tmpfs on /rw_fs/tmp/usr/var type tmpfs (rw,relatime,size=5000k)
nfsd on /proc/fs/nfsd type nfsd (rw,relatime)
/dev/sde8 on /share/1004 type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl,barrier=1,data=ordered)
/dev/md0 on /share/1100 type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl,barrier=1,data=ordered)

So I guess that I need to just fix the link on /usr/local ?

I didn't know this was just a link. :D

Thank for these outputs.

What volume is selected in the main setup menu (tab addons volume ).

If fvdw share is really on 1100, you must select as volume RD5-0

and in the howto use

Code: Select all

cd /share/1100/fvdw/addons

instead of

Code: Select all

cd /share/1000/fvdw/addons

before unta the archive

I did all this correctly before.

I was just missing the correct symbolic link to /usr/local :)

Thanks for your help!

[Jocko]

Hummm

There is something I don't yet understand : this symlink should be updated

First, if you update manually the symlink, at next boot your change will be undo. So We need to find what is it wrong.

Can you explain how did you :
- create the raid
- set the addons volume
- create the share fvdw

and please post also these 2 additional outputs

Code: Select all

ls -l /direct-usb
 grep addonsvol /etc/nas_conf_db.xml


[SalzStreuer]

Can you explain how did you :
- create the raid

I followed your guide here to set up the RAID5: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2006

- set the addons volume

I just created the addons folder in the fvdw share

- create the share fvdw

I just created it via the webinterface and set the used volume to the Raid5.

and please post also these 2 additional outputs

Code: Select all

ls -l /direct-usb
 grep addonsvol /etc/nas_conf_db.xml


Code: Select all

# ls -l /direct-usb
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 11 2015-11-20 19:53 /direct-usb -> /share/1100


Code: Select all

#  grep addonsvol /etc/nas_conf_db.xml
                <addonsvolume>1100</addonsvolume>

Is there any easy way to modify the symbolic link that gets created at reboot? Else I will find a way to "hack" this :D

[Jocko]

- set the addons volume

I just created the addons folder in the fvdw share

So the issue was here.
addons volume is not the addons folder. You would have had to set the raid volume as addons volume. addons volume is the volume which contains the technical shares and fvdw share.
and then the symlink has not been updated.

But as there are some checks the firmware has automatically detected that the new addons volume is your RAID volume. ( I need to deepen later why it updates "direct-usb" symlink but not "local" symlink). So now you should be able to update the symlink just by rebooting the NAS.

PS: I need to update some posts in addons subforum need since version 16.0

[SalzStreuer]

Good to know.

Thank you very much for your help :) I really appreciate it.

[Jocko]

Hi SalzStreuer,

I checked how the firmware auto-detects the addons volume if this one is mis-set.

Indeed, in this case it updates only the symlink /direct-usb but not /usr/local. I go to change this behaviour is next version.

Anyhow, all symlinks are updated when you restart the NAS or select again the wanted volume in the setup menu.

Hi Jocko and fvdw,

I'm rebuilding a cloudbox and have extracted python in the addons folder, but it is not available in my path (sh: python: not found)

Did I miss a step? Do I need to configure python after extracting it??

Thanks, as always, for your help.

I also tried installing with ipkg. Since there is not enough room in sda1, i set the destination for install as -d /share/1000/fvdw/addons
Installations are not created in /share/1000/fvdw/addons/opt, but again, I can't get them to stick in my path.
