Trouble Installing Connect on Ubuntu

[Daniel Davies]

Hi Guys,

I've had a couple problems installing connect on my linux systems.

When I run the suggested commands
( sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nonolith/connect \ && sudo apt-get update \ && sudo apt-get install nonolith-connect nonolith-pixelpulse-launcher \ && sudo service udev restart )

I get the following error:

I tried this on two computers running ubuntu 14.04..

When I tried to build from source I was unable to receiving the following error:

libusb/libusb/os/linux_usbfs.c:35:21: fatal error: libudev.h: No such file or directory

# include <libudev.h>

Before I spend more time trying to fix these issues I was wondering if anyone had encountered this before and had a fix for it?


Best,

Hi Dan,

To build from source, you'll need to `sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev libudev-dev`. 

The first error is because the PPA hasn't been updated for 14.04.

Thanks for the quick response. I encountered another error:


scons: Reading SConscript files ...
scons: done reading SConscript files.
scons: Building targets ...
g++ -o nonolith-connect -fstack-protector-all device.o event.o rest_service.o server.o url.o usb.o version.o websocket_service.o streaming_device/output_source.o streaming_device/rest_api.o streaming_device/stream_listener.o streaming_device/streaming_device.o streaming_device/ws_api.o cee/cee.o bootloader/bootloader.o -L. libusb_nonolith.a libwebsocketpp.a libjson.a -ludev -lpthread -lrt -lboost_system-mt -lboost_regex-mt -lboost_thread-mt
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lboost_system-mt
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lboost_regex-mt
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lboost_thread-mt

looking online this seems to be because the newer versions of the boost packages (obtained by sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev) no longer support the -mt (multi thread). I tried to search through the connect repository to remove the -mt. I only found it in the SConstruct and removed it from there but still received the same error.

any ideas on what I could try next?

Solved that issue by adding a symlink to where the the libboost stuff was actually installed.

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_system{,-mt}.so
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_thread{,-mt}.so
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_regex{,-mt}.so

running scons i received the message:

user@chrubuntu:~/connect$ scons -j5

scons: Reading SConscript files ...
scons: done reading SConscript files.
scons: Building targets ...

scons: `.' is up to date.
scons: done building targets.

Going further through the README I found that I don't have a '/etc/init.d/nonolith-connect ' file or folder so am stuck again.

I will keep trying but further assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

You can run `./nonolith-connect` to run the server from the build directory without installing it as a service. (This is actually how I use it). You do still need the udev rules installed to give your user account permission to access the device: put

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="59e3", ATTR{idProduct}=="cee1", MODE="0666"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="59e3", ATTR{idProduct}=="bbbb", MODE="0666"

in /etc/udev/rules.d/60-nonolith-connect.rules, and `sudo udevadm control --reload-rules`

The `/etc/init.d/nonolith-connect` script installed by the package to start the server on boot comes from https://github.com/nonolith/connect/blob/master/debian/nonolith-connect.init, which expects the nonolith-connect executable to be installed to /usr/bin/nonolith-connect.

Commenting out the ` boostlibs = [i+'-mt' for i in boostlibs]` line seems to fix the `-mt` error for me. I can try to build an Ubuntu 14.04 package later this week, but hopefully running it from the build directory works as a temporary solution.

Thanks! Everything seems to be working well. Will let you know if i need package but I should be ok.

Thanks for the quick replies and rapid help.
