Installation issue

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have my OpenSprinkler unit up and running on the network and now want to get the mobile app working.

I am attempting to run the initial install of the OpenSprinkler mobile app but am getting the error messages below (apologies for the plain text copy). I have a new WAMP install (Apache 2.4.4, PHP 5.4.12 under Windows 7). I’ve given all folders in the path full privileges and unzipped the git files into the WAMP server’s site directory. I’ve searched for quite a few hours for a possible lead to solve this, but without success. I have got a simple sample php app working on the WAMP server to verify it is basically up and running. Any advice or hints on next steps would be greatly appreciated.

The error message is honestly expected. It should just be a warning echoed in your log file. Where are you seeing the error now?

The installer is checking if the system is a Raspberry Pi running the interval program locally (to autoconfigure). I will try to test on Windows but not sure why it would be different.

Thanks

Thanks for the further detail. The error message appeared in the browser (Chrome). Hadn’t looked in the log, but the following appears in the log, which seems to indicate actual issue as a call at line 144 of install.php (as you said, the first warning message is to be expected and not fatal).

I’ll also see if I can get Xdebug (part of the WAMP package) to trace what’s occurring.

Ah you’re missing gettext that’s why. I’ll put a fix out for users without gettext.

Update: Also, it seems Windows LAMP setup is defaulted to putting notice and warning message on the page output (which makes no sense since the end-user is typically not the programmer).

Update 2: I pushed an update which should create the _() function which is the shorthand for gettext. This way, the app at least functions and outputs english strings if you are missing gettext. Let me know if this helps.

Thank you for such a quick update. Problem still seems to be present, but line numbers quoted in the error log have shifted slightly so I think I’ve got the update in place (downloaded and unzipped the package and restarted WAMP). I’ll see if I can change the WAMP config to stop displaying the messages in the browser. Here are the log entries:

Sorry about that! I made the mistake of updating the actual code but not the installer. See if this update fixes your issue.

As far as the notices go I suppose it is my duty to suppress/handle them better. I will see what I can do however in the mean time, changing your php.ini or adding “error_reporting(E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE);” to the PHP file (not the best fix) should suppress the other notices.

Since your earlier post I had Success!

Your comment about gettext being missing, led me to start digging – all I needed to do was enable that extension in the php.ini file, and restart. WAMP 2.2 has gettext disabled by default. WAMP also has the php setting ‘display errors’ turned on by default, so turning that off, stopped the warning message display in the browser. Thanks very much for your help.

Awesome! I actually pushed yet another update which suppresses the notices within the installer (since it most likely will fail). Thanks for making this issue known.
