Unable to get the Docker Image to run

[sighmon]

@jozujo Eep! It's a typo in the Adafruit library which they fixed... which then broke this code. Sorry! I'll get to fixing it shortly.

[sighmon]

@jozujo Thanks again for the debugging output - I had a block of time today so managed to look at it a bit more thoroughly, as well as run it on my Pi without the solar panel and battery monitor and managed to recreate the failure.

So hopefully if you do a git pull it should work for you now. If it hasn't pulled in the right changes to the enviroplus_exporter submodule, then you can always try and run git submodule update --remote to get it to update.

Let me know how you go!

[sighmon]

@jozujo Ah right, sounds like I might have missed a step from the instructions to pull the notecard submodule.

Could you try deleting the note-python folder, and then:

• Move into the enviroplus exporter folder: cd enviroplus_exporter
• Update the submodule: git submodule update --init

Hopefully that'll pull in the right Notecard code. If it doesn't you could also try: git submodule update --remote whilst in the enviroplus_exporter folder.

Then you should be ready to build again with: docker build -t sighmon/enviroplus_exporter:v1 .

Once you've got your InfluxDB credentials in the Dockerfile, you should start seeing data posted there. Let me know how you get along.

[jozujo]

@sighmon Thanks for the clarification - thanks to your instructions, I was able to pull the Notecard code in, but I still haven't found any luck with actually getting the Dockerfile to run.
When I build the file (having entered my InfluxDB credentials in the Dockerfile), after completing all the steps, I get:

Successfully built 2b823acfd5f5
Successfully tagged sighmon/enviroplus_exporter:v1

But then when I try to run docker run -d --privileged -p 8000:8000 sighmon/enviroplus_exporter:v1, I get:

WARNING: The requested image's platform (linux/amd64) does not match the detected host platform (linux/arm/v6) and no specific platform was requested
453794ea230ebfa3c02cdeee5650f688c81de6c6f950703f2146a0a5c4d9bcfe

Again, nothing seems to show up on the PI's IP address at port 8000, and when trying to check to see if the container is running, I get the same empty list.

CONTAINER ID   IMAGE     COMMAND   CREATED   STATUS    PORTS     NAMES

I feel like there might be something very obvious I'm missing, but I'm not sure what it is. Any ideas?

[sighmon]

@jozujo Ah I see - my interim container is linux/amd64, and I'm not seeing that issue because Balena must be doing the handiwork to make it compatible.

Think you might need to try building your own base image and pushing to Docker hub following the instructions: https://github.com/sighmon/balena-enviro-plus#build-your-own-base-image

And then in your Dockerfile, change it to your image on your Docker Hub.

[jozujo]

@sighmon I see.
I tried to build my own base image using the instructions you provided. Then, while still in /balena-enviro-plus/base_image, I ran docker run -d --privileged -p 8000:8000 jozujo/balena-enviro-plus:v1, having changed the image in the Dockerfile to jozujo/balena-enviro-plus:v1, but it still came up with the same error as before.

WARNING: The requested image's platform (linux/amd64) does not match the detected host platform (linux/arm/v6) and no specific platform was requested
524d4b737914e006bd1a5baccc2c5e6d29da48d2505e7dd321af0a1dcd14081c

Other than setting the username and name of the repository on my Docker Hub, I didn't do anything else, but the OS/Arch seems to be set as linux/amd64, rather than linux/arm/v6 which I'm assuming it will need to be.
Sorry for all the back and forth on this.

[sighmon]

@jozujo Think you're getting close! After building the base image, move back into the root and re-build the enviroplus_exporter image again. Then you should be able to run it with the command you used above. So the complete steps would be:

• cd base_image
• docker build -t jozujo/balena-enviro-plus:v1 .
• cd ..
• Edit the root directory Dockerfile's first line to read: FROM jozujo/balena-enviro-plus:v1
• Build the image: docker build -t jozujo/enviroplus_exporter:v1 .
• Run the image: docker run -d --privileged -p 8000:8000 jozujo/enviroplus_exporter:v1

[jozujo]

@sighmon You're so optimistic!
I'm afraid I still have not had any luck...

Hello, I'm a beginner with the same issue. I've been following along, trying a few things to get a better understanding of the issue. I tried running the docker container without the -d and got the following errors:

modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:586 kmod_search_moddep() cound not open moddep file '/lib/modules/5.10.52+/modules.dep.bin'
modprobe: FATAL: Module i2c-dev not found in directory /lib/modules/5.10.52+

I'm not that sure on the difference between running it with or without -d so I could be missing the mark completely, but would this have anything to do with the container exiting immediately after running?

I ran docker ps -a and it seems like the container was started but the status was listed as exited. This leads me to think it's starting and then exiting but I'm unfamiliar with a lot of this so I wouldn't know for sure.

If there's any terminology I'm using improperly please let me know.

[sighmon]

@jozujo Could you please try changing the base image Dockerfile line to be: FROM balenalib/raspberry-pi-debian-python:3.7-build

It may be that Balena removed the arm based 3.7.4 build image.

Also, run it without the -d flag so it's not run in the background... you might see more error messages.

[sighmon]

@asdfng I think your problem might be different - have you enabled I2C in the Raspberry Pi config menu?

[asdfng]

@sighmon I2C is enabled

[jozujo]

Hi @sighmon - thanks for your patience.
I did as you mentioned, and I think we're getting closer to the root of the problem, but it doesn't seem to be fully solved. As I still am not able to access port 8000 through my browser.
This time, when trying to run the Dockerfile without -d as suggested, I got the following error:

modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:586 kmod_search_moddep() could not open moddep file '/lib/modules/5.10.52+/modules.dep.bin'
modprobe: FATAL: Module i2c-dev not found in directory /lib/modules/5.10.52+

I would like to check if I got the procedure correct, though, so please bare with me.
Having built my own base image, editing the root directory's Dockerfile first line with FROM jozujo/balena-enviro-plus:v1 and the base image Dockerfile with FROM balenalib/raspberry-pi-debian-python:3.7-build, while still in the base_image folder, I did the following: docker build -t jozujo/balena-enviro-plus:v1 .
This seemed largely successful, resulting in:

But then running docker run --privileged -p 8000:8000 jozujo/enviroplus_exporter:v1 resulted in the error at the top of this post, with seemingly no active containers...

[sighmon]

@jozujo @asdfng Okay, so at least you've both got the same error there. What happens if you remove modprobe i2c-dev && from the Dockerfile in the root folder?

[jozujo]

@sighmon Hi, thank you for being so patient with me on this - I really owe you more than a pat on the back after all of this.

I removed modprobe i2c-dev && from the Dockerfile in the root folder to have the final line read:

# Uses temperature compensation of 6.6 and humidity compensation of 24.7 and posts to influxdb and luftdaten
CMD ["sh", "-c", python3 enviroplus_exporter.py --temp $TEMPERATURE_COMPENSATION --humid $HUMIDITY_COMPENSATION --influxdb true --luftdaten true"]

Then, going through the same process as my previous post, running docker run --privileged -p 8000:8000 jozujo/enviroplus_exporter:v1, I get the following error:

/bin/sh: 1: Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string

I confirmed that there was no active container running and was not able to access the data locally through port 8000.

[sighmon]

@jozujo Try adding the " before python3... so:

CMD ["sh", "-c", "python3 enviroplus_exporter.py --temp $TEMPERATURE_COMPENSATION --humid $HUMIDITY_COMPENSATION --influxdb true --luftdaten true"]

[jozujo]

@sighmon Still no luck I'm afraid, but I feel like we're getting close. This time, I had the following readout:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "enviroplus_exporter.py", line 24, in <module>
    from adafruit_lc709203f import LC709023F, PackSize
ImportError: cannot import name 'LC709023F' from 'adafruit_lc709203f' (/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/adafruit_lc709203f.py)

I guess this means I need to change something with the line below in the root Dockerfile?

    adafruit-circuitpython-lc709203f \

[sighmon]

@jozujo That's very weird, were you definitely running the right image? We might have to coordinate some realtime help to debug this last bit. Which timezone are you in?

[jozujo]

@sighmon I think I'm using the right image.
Because I've gone back and forth a lot on this case, there is a high possibility that I've messed with something without realizing it, so I'm going to try and do a totally fresh reinstall of the OS and this project and see if I get the same results.
If that does end up happening, I would really appreciate your help with a realtime debug - I'm in Tokyo, so I don't think it should be too hard to coordinate with yourself in Australia hopefully.
Thanks for all your help so far!

[sighmon]

@jozujo I've just noticed that on one of mine I'm running the command without the "sh", "-c" part. So maybe try this with all extras turned off just to get it running:

CMD ["python3", "enviroplus_exporter.py", "--temp", "6.6", "--humid", "24.7", "--influxdb", "false", "--luftdaten", "false", "--safecast", "false", "--notecard", "false"]

[jozujo]

@sighmon Unfortunately I got the same error:

docker run --privileged -p 8000:8000 jozujo/enviroplus_exporter:v1
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "enviroplus_exporter.py", line 24, in <module>

I'm going to try and start from scratch and will report back.

[jozujo]

Hi @sighmon , apologies for the long silence.
I went back and started totally fresh on a reinstalled OS, but I'm afraid I haven't had any luck.
This time, when I changed the base image Dockerfile's first line to read: FROM balenalib/raspberry-pi-debian-python:3.7-build as you suggested earlier, I got the following error after Step 3/4(Step 4 was never completed):

Fatal Python error: _Py_InitializeMainInterpreter: can't initialize time
PermissionError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted

Current thread 0xb6f41040 (most recent call first):
Aborted (core dumped)
The command '/bin/sh -c pip3 install enviroplus   requests   spidev   RPi.GPIO' returned a non-zero code: 134

Nevertheless, I tried to run the final version of the root Dockerfile (with everything turned off as suggested here), which reads as follows:

### Export all of the enviro+ sensor data to a Prometheus exporter ###

I ended up getting the same error as last time, though:

If you have time we may need to coordinate that realtime help you mentioned.
Please let me know if you have any other ideas though!

Thanks a lot for all your help so far!

[sighmon]

@jozujo Okay, try a git pull on the master branch, and see how you get along.

[jozujo]

@sighmon Thanks for the help. I tried, but still no luck.
I am getting the following error when I try to build the base image, which I think is impacting the rest of the progress after that.

[sighmon]

@jozujo Could you please try using my base image again, because I think we can ignore the warning you were seeing.

When you reinstalled Raspbian did you also enable i2c using sudo raspi-config?

What do you see when you run: i2cdetect -y 1

[jozujo]

@sighmon It feels like we're getting closer. This time seemed more successful than my previous recent attempts.
I reverted to your base image Dockerfile, and executed docker build -t jozujo/balena-enviro-plus:v1 .:

I can confirm that i2c was enabled with sudo raspi-config as soon as I had finished reinstalling Raspbian, before starting the project.

[jozujo]

@sighmon Although I have caused you a lot of work over the last few months, I am strangely glad that you were able to replicate my issue.
But I would like to thank you so much - I have finally had success in seeing the data.

However, not all is well - it doesn't seem as though I am able to run the Dockerfile in the background (as per the instructions on the readme), only with the -d removed from docker run -d --privileged -p 8000:8000 sighmon/enviroplus_exporter:v1. Any ideas for this?

Also, I'm not sure if this is usual behaviour, but in order for it to run, is it a requirement to build and then run the Dockerfile each time?

Thanks for all your help so far!

[sighmon]

@jozujo That's so great it's working for you.

Re: running it in the background - what errors are you seeing?

On the Pi that isn't running Balena for remote deployment, I'm using these start/stop scripts:

# start.sh
docker run -d --name enviroplus --privileged -p 8000:8000 sighmon/enviroplus_exporter:v9

# stop.sh
cd /home/pi/Code/balena-enviro-plus
docker stop $(docker ps -aq)
docker rm enviroplus

The docker stop command stops the enviroplus container, and the docker rm command makes it so that I can re-run the container with the name enviroplus.

I wonder if the reason your background -d command isn't working is because its still half running or not completely stopped.

[prutsky]

Is this all fixed now?
Going through the steps on the main page, results for me in simular errors. Following the above does not fix my
WARNING: The requested image's platform (linux/amd64) does not match the detected host platform (linux/arm/v6) and no specific platform was requested
error.

It's not copy paste the steps on the main page to get everything running, right?

[sighmon]

@prutsky The message you're seeing is a warning, and doesn't cause problems running it for me.

Could you run docker logs enviroplus and let me know what it outputs?

If you don't want to post to Influxdb or Luftdaten, change the last line of the Dockerfile to: --influxdb false --luftdaten false
