Install OMV Extras hangs

  • Hi,


    I'm new to OMV so please forgive any stupidity...


    I'm trying to install omvextrasorg 0.6.17 on my newly built OMV 0.5


    I click on plugins and upload the file (openmediavault-omvextrasorg_0.6.17_all.deb). Then I select it and click 'install'
    I then get a new popup saying 'install plugins...' with a blank window and a greyed out 'Close' button but nothing else. And it stays like that forever.


    I guess something is bust somewhere. Ultimately I'm trying to get a DLNA plugin but this is proving tricky!


    any help much appreciated


    thanks


    Jeremy

  • Do you have SSH activated? Can you try to install manually via CLI and see what is failing?


    See: http://omv-extras.org/simple/i…install-omv-extras-plugin

  • Ok... I did as suggested and followed the manual approach. All seemed to go ok:



    I then went to the admin console and the OMV Extras plugin appears in the left hand pane but when I click on it I get this error:

    Code
    Error #3003: exception 'OMVException' with message 'Failed to get configuration (xpath=//system/omvextrasorg)' in /usr/share/openmediavault/engined/rpc/omvextrasorg.inc:72 Stack trace: #0 [internal function]: OMVRpcServiceOmvExtrasOrg->getPrimary(NULL, Array) #1 /usr/share/php/openmediavault/rpcservice.inc(125): call_user_func_array(Array, Array) #2 /usr/share/php/openmediavault/rpc.inc(62): OMVRpcServiceAbstract->callMethod('getPrimary', NULL, Array) #3 /usr/sbin/omv-engined(495): OMVRpc::exec('OmvExtrasOrg', 'getPrimary', NULL, Array, 1) #4 {main}


    What next, do you think????

  • Actually, looking through that output now I've noticed that all is not OK. There are errors in the dpkg....


    Code
    dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of openmediavault-omvextrasorg:
    openmediavault-omvextrasorg depends on lsb-release; however:
    Package lsb-release is not installed.
    dpkg: error processing openmediavault-omvextrasorg (--install):
    dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
    Processing triggers for openmediavault ...
    Restarting engine daemon ...
    Errors were encountered while processing:
    openmediavault-omvextrasorg


    Any idea what this is?


    cheers

  • Installaing a package via dpkg does not solve any dependecies. To fix those dependencies, use the following command:


    Code
    apt-get -f install

    I'm guessing this isn't what I want?!


    Rerunning the dpkg gets me back to where I was.


    puzzled,

  • Code
    apt-get install lsb-release


    Oh, and please use codeboxes. Thank you ;)

  • Thanks.


    Here's what that did....


    Code
    root@openmediavault:~#     apt-get install lsb-release
    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree
    Reading state information... Done
    Package lsb-release is not available, but is referred to by another package.
    This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
    is only available from another source
    
    
    E: Package 'lsb-release' has no installation candidate


    doesn't look good to me....?

  • Code
    cat /etc/apt/sources.list
    cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*
    uname -a
    cat /etc/debian_version
    dpkg -l | grep openmediavault

  • Ok.... I'm guessing that at some point in my efforts I have royally screwed something:




    Thanks again!

  • Don't mess with the default debian repos. Some of the mirrors are screwy and that is one main reason we locked the sources.list.



    e.g.

    Code
    deb http://debian.mirrors.tds.net/debian/ squeeze-updates main non-free
    deb-src http://debian.mirrors.tds.net/debian/ squeeze-updates main non-free
  • Delete anything inside your sources.list file and replace it with the following. If you run into a permissions problem with that, just say so and I will help you. ;)


    Code
    deb http://archive.debian.org/debian oldstable main contrib non-free
    deb-src http://archive.debian.org/debian oldstable main contrib non-free
    
    
    deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ squeeze-updates main contrib non-free
    deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ squeeze-updates main contrib non-free
    
    
    deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main contrib non-free
    deb-src http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main contrib non-free

  • Ok - editted the sources.list and tried the lsb-release install again:



    no change there.


    frustrating!

    • Offizieller Beitrag

    Did you apt-get update after editing sources?

    omv 7.0.5-1 sandworm | 64 bit | 6.8 proxmox kernel

    plugins :: omvextrasorg 7.0 | kvm 7.0.13 | compose 7.1.4 | k8s 7.1.0-3 | cputemp 7.0.1 | mergerfs 7.0.4

    Please don't PM for support... Too many PMs!

  • Ups. My mistake... of course you need to do what aaron said first.

  • She's still not very happy. Forgive any slight formatting oddities below I had to do this from my phone....



    cheers!

  • I get you a copy of sources.list to use. Hold on....


    Edit sources.list and put in this and then:
    apt-get clean
    apt-get update


  • Ok! That seems to have cracked it. I'll confirm what I did for the benefit of anyone else with this problem....


    I did:

    Code
    root@openmediavault:~# nano /etc/apt/sources.list
    root@openmediavault:~# apt-get clean
    root@openmediavault:~# apt-get update
     dpkg -i openmediavault-omvextrasorg_0.6.17_all.deb


    Which updated loads of stuff but the final step still gave errors mentioning lsb-release. So I ran:

    Code
    apt-get install lsb-release


    This still gave errors and suggested:

    Code
    apt-get -f install


    which installed loads of python stuff. Then


    Code
    dpkg -i openmediavault-omvextrasorg_0.6.17_all.deb


    ...which finally seemed to work!


    So now I have the OMV-Extras.org in the OMV admin page!


    Hurrah!


    Thanks a million. Now I'm going to try for miniDLNA or Plex. Wish me luck.
