Title: owfs.tcz not in repo
Post by: mxguy31 on September 05, 2017, 08:49:38 PM

Hey guys,

I am trying to add the owfs.tcz extension however it is not found in the repo.

This is the console output (after trying a different mirror):
$ tce-load -wi owfs.tcz
Downloading: owfs.tcz
Connecting to mirror.cpsc.ucalgary.ca (136.159.2.91:80)
wget: server returned error: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
md5sum: owfs.tcz.md5.txt: No such file or directory
Error on owfs.tcz

I get the same output with the main repo. If I use tce it doesn't find it either. If I look at the repo listing it does not show up... was it removed?

owfs.tcz is easy to compile yourself.

You could try to compile it your self.
Make your own extension.

owfs was last present in the piCore 5.x repo - you could download it from there and give it a try?

http://www.tinycorelinux.net/5.x/armv6/tcz/owfs.tcz

You'd also need the *dep and *md5.txt files

I will try and compile myself, It would be an adventure into uncharted territory. Thanks for the links, if I can't figure it out I will fall back to the 5.x

Thanks for the help. If I am successful in compiling the latest version I will try to get it added again.

I tried compiling myself with no success... I am not a linux noob, however I am very new to tiny core (less than a couple days). I think I have googled myself into a tailspin. Thanks for the links, I will revisit once I clear the fog.

Can I force tce to use the older repository by changing /opt/tcemirror, or is wget plus manual install the only way?

Not really, the mirror is generated by getMirror function in /etc/init.d/tc-functions

You should do this instead

Code: [Select]

cd /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional
wget http://www.tinycorelinux.net/5.x/armv6/tcz/owfs.tcz
wget http://www.tinycorelinux.net/5.x/armv6/tcz/owfs.tcz.dep
wget http://www.tinycorelinux.net/5.x/armv6/tcz/owfs.tcz.md5.txt
tce-audit fetchmissing

Made some progress... I followed polikuo's advice and now I have the .tcz files downloaded with wget, however when I run tce-audit fetchmissing I get an error

tc@thermostat:/mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/optional$ tce-audit fetchmissing
/usr/bin/tce-audit: line 282: can't open tce.lst: no such file

I did a search of the system like this (sudo find / -name "tce.lst") and can't find that file. I feel like I am missing something simple.

Hi mxguy31

Try running this first:

Code: [Select]

tce-audit builddb

Just to finish this thread out, and help anyone else in the future. I can install OWFS from tce. You have to run "modprobe fuse" to start fuse before owfs will work.

Thanks again for the help, my home automation is back in business.
