Unable to install WebIDE

Post by alfiesty »

When I try the easy way

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ curl https://raw.github.com/adafruit/Adafrui ... install.sh
curl: (35) Unknown SSL protocol error in connection to raw.github.com:443
pi@raspberrypi ~ $

Installing manually

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo apt-get install git
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
git is already the newest version.
git set to manually installed.
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
cvm fgetty ipsvd libbg1 libbg1-doc libcvm1 BANNED.8 runit
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 13 not upgraded.pi@raspberrypi ~ $ git clone
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ git clone git://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-WebIDE.git
Cloning into 'Adafruit-WebIDE'...
fatal: unable to connect to github.com:
github.com[0: 207.97.227.239]: errno=Connection timed out
pi@raspberrypi ~ $

What am I doing wrong? Shutting off Windows firewall made no difference.

Offhand, it looks like you don't have a network connection.

Try this:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ traceroute raw.github.com
You should see a series of lines like this:

Code: Select all

 1  192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.1)  2.377 ms  1.818 ms  2.906 ms
 2  99-195-210-1.dyn.centurytel.net (99.195.210.1)  17.538 ms  16.866 ms  16.963 ms
 3  173-248-84-30.centurylink.net (173.248.84.30)  15.001 ms  17.329 ms  13.608 ms
 4  173-248-69-196.centurylink.net (173.248.69.196)  26.550 ms  25.140 ms  26.256 ms
that tell you how long it took to make a connection to each machine in the path between your RasPi and Github. If you get a series of lines like this:

Code: Select all

 11  * * *
 12  * * *
 13  * * *
hit control-C to stop the test.

If you don't see at least a few lines of the first sort, your Pi doesn't have a connection to the internet.

you are right

However I can ping and browse

Now that's interesting..

If you can ping, you have a network connection. The fact that traceroute returns nothing is odd because traceroute and ping both use ICMP echo requests.

My next guess would be that you're running into a protocol filter at your local router.

The usual RasPi setup involves a WiFi dongle linking to a WiFi router with a DSL or cable connection to the upstream provider. If that's what you have, check the configuration settings on that to see if it has a traffic filter of some kind.

Looking back at the commands you listed in your original post, neither of them was straight HTTP. Try this:

Code: Select all

curl http://raw.github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-WebIDE/alpha/scripts/install.sh
Your original version was HTTPS, and there might be something wonky that's blocking the SSL connection.

All right, I just executed the same command with a -v flag to see exactly what was going on, and found a redirect to the https version.

Time to stop being subtle.. here's the installer script:

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/env bash

# curl https://raw.github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-WebIDE/alpha/scripts/install.sh | sudo sh
# curl https://raw.github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-WebIDE/test/scripts/install.sh | sudo sh

#    # Control will enter here if $DIRECTORY doesn't exist.
#fi

Copy that to your RasPi by any means necessary, and save it as 'install.sh'.

Then execute the command:

Code: Select all

cat install.sh | sudo sh
The WebIDE lives in the Amazon cloud under a regular HTTP address, and the apt-get stuff is plain-vanilla HTTP too. Hopefully whatever it is in your network that hates HTTPS traffic will stay out of the way.

That seemed to work but connecting to "http://raspberry.local" just brings up a search engine. Since I had the install window still open in SSH, I copied the last lines of the install logging to the screen.

update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/nodejs to provide /usr/bin/js (js) in auto m ode
Setting up nodejs-legacy (0.6.19~dfsg1-6) ...
Setting up restartd (0.2.2) ...
Starting process checker: No processes defined in config file. Exiting.
restartd.

**** Adding webide user to sudoers ****
/etc/sudoers.tmp: parsed OK
/etc/sudoers.d/README: parsed OK
sh: 50:  : not found
pi@raspberrypi /boot $

PS I really appreciate all your help! My field was giant klystrons( 30-100 megawatt) which somehow did not include Linux.

Okay, it glitched out at copying the webIDE user to the sudoers file.. for reference 'sudo' allows regular users to execute commands with the power of the 'root' user. All unix variants have user-based access restrictions on what files you can read, edit, or execute. Most user accounts are restricted to files in their own home directory and 'you can see it but you can't change it' utilities.

That causes some headaches in an age where we interact with computers through a web browser. The server program (called a 'daemon') has its own user account, and there are good reasons for that account to have fairly tight limits. That means the files that are best behaved for the daemon are locked off to a point where the average user account can't work with them.

The root user account doesn't have those access restrictions, precisely because having a file nobody can change is a Big Problem in all sorts of places. Rather than giving everyone access to the root account, the 'sudo' command lets regular users run specific commands with the power of root.

That's not the kind of thing you want built into every user account by default, so there's a tightly access-controlled file named 'sudoers' which tells the machine who can execute 'sudo' at all, and what commands they can use.

That's where things went blooey.

So.. enter this command:

Code: Select all

sudo cat /etc/sudoers
and see if the last line is:

Code: Select all

webide ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
If not, do this:

Code: Select all

ls -l /etc/sudoers.tmp
to see if the tempfile created by the installer still exists.

If both those tests come up "no", I'm going to have to teach you 'vi' editor syntax, which is Not A Fun Thing To Do.

'vi' predates the window-mouse user interface, so it uses keyboard commands to alter text files. It evolved in the hands of code geeks building tools for their own use, so it's dang near impenetrable to normal humans.

Hopefully it won't come to that.

Not adding anything useful, but this above quote made me smile... My unix skills are 20 years old and rusty, but 'vi' is still implemented in my fingers :lol: If I don't think, the commands just come back naturally. That said, I can't get WebIDE to work either.
