Installation scripts fails on
systemctl enable evok
Throws error 'Failed to execute operation: Invalid argument'.
This problem is caused by the line
Alias=evok.service
in the evok.service file.
I believe the problem is the alias refers to the same name as the name of the file. I removed the line and then everything is OK.
I have the same problem. It doesn't help to change the log level in the service file. It still continues dumping info about every read attempt which is annoying. I guess the "I" in the log indicates log level is Info. And it remains I whatever level you set.
I can release it in public. I guess the most convenient way is to do it with git. However, it is just one single file, so it is not that complex. The needed documentation is in the top of the file.
Re: Domoticz
The Domoticz beta version (3.6584) supports python based plugin modules. By that it is possible to add native support for new HW modules without the need for C programming. I have developed a plugin for UniPi. It supports relay control and also 1-wire temp sensors. The relays are controlled by 8 Domoticz switches (toggle on/off). They are automatically added to Domoticz once a UniPi HW module is added on the HW setup tab. 1-wire temp sensors will be automatically deteced and added as Domoticz temp as soon as they are connected.
With this plugin module you do not need to do the tedious mapping between virtual devices and lua scripts any more. Just add a UniPi module and off you go!
Up until now there is no officially promoted way to share python plugins for Domiticz. Are you interested in my plugin module, send me personal message and I will share it with you.
I solved it myself. The installation script does not work for Jessie. I had to change the file and use the init.d scripts instead of the systemctl commands.
cp etc/init.d/evok /etc/init.d/
cp etc/init.d/pigpiod /etc/init.d/
chmod +x /etc/init.d/evok
chmod +x /etc/init.d/pigpiod
update-rc.d pigpiod defaults
update-rc.d evok defaults
This works fine!
I'm trying to install EVOK on my Rasp with Jessie, but the installation fails. I have pinpointed the error to the line:
sudo systemctl enable pigpiod
Gives the error:
Failed to execute operation: No such file or directory
I believe it is typo error in the install script. It should be
systemctl enable pigpio
since the file name is /etc/systemd/system/pigpio.service. However, changing the name will just return another error:
Failed to execute operation: Invalid argument
The next line in the install script:
systemctl enable evok
throws exactly the same error:
Failed to execute operation: Invalid argument
I must admit I'm not that familiar with systemctl and this way to install services, so I might have missed something important. But obviously the install script fails on those lines.
Any help on this?
