Description

Cannot install Wyliodrin STUDIO

Steps to Reproduce

I have had horrible time when trying to install Wyliodrin STUDIO 10.9 to new Raspberry Pi 3 Model B which has NOOBS Raspbian 2.3.0. I plan to make programs this same Raspberry using visual programming which translates to Python.

How you guys do it successfully?

This is my installation method starting from empty SD-card and it fails:

TechRadar “Install Wyliodrin manually” instructions in side panel of article:
http://www.techradar.com/how-to/how-to-use-a-raspberry-pi-to-control-your-smart-home

I do it this way: “Advanced users can, however, add it on to an existing Raspbian installation”

INSTALL RASPBIAN:

Format 16GB SD-card correctly to FAT32 using ApplePi-Baker helper app

Copy all files in NOOBS_v2_3_0 folder to SD-card

Put card to Raspberry and turn on

Install Raspbian

Set clock
Setup network
Set locale, timezone, keyboard, wifi country

Boot

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

INSTALL WYLIODRIN STUDIO:

wget “https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Wyliodrin/wyliodrin-server/master/scripts/install_raspberrypi.sh”

Checked that filesystem is extended

These instructions are little blurry:

“You also need to select ‘Advanced Options’ and select ‘A6 SPI – Enable/Disable automatic loading’.
Repeat for ‘A7 I2C – Enable/Disable automatic loading’ and ‘A8 Serial – Disable serial shell’. “

Does that mean that SPI is enabled, I2C is enabled and serial login shell and serial interface is disabled??

Boot

sudo nano /boot/config.txt

Added: dtparam=i2c1=on

sudo nano /etc/modules - added these rows:

i2c-dev
i2c-bcm2708

sudo chmod +x ./install_raspberrypi.sh
sudo ./install_raspberrypi.sh

Boot

I then continued TechRadar instructions from “However, for the purposes of this tutorial we’re going to switch focus to the Wyliodrin STUDIO application…”

Installed Wyliodrin STUDIO app from Chrome store

During installation Wyliodrin changes my working network settings from these:

These work for me. i don’t use ethernet at all:

source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan inet dhcp
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
wpa-ssid “net_name_is_here”
wpa-psk “password_is_here”

to these settings:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp
allow-hotplug wlan0
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
wpa-roam /etc/wyliodrin/wireless.conf
iface default inet dhcp

BTW, if i now type to terminal

su

and then type

raspberry

I get error

su: Authentication failure

And i’m not changed password at all

Then i type

sudo passwd

And i type twice

raspberry

It changes password to raspberry successfully and if i test it with su, it accepts it too so now surely password is ‘raspberry’

Now i launch Wyliodrin STUDIO app, click Exit, click Connect,

If i use Wyliodrin network settings, then it lists just Chrome and IP Address.

If i modify network settings back to my own settings and launch STUDIO, click Exit, in menubar is only Disconnected, flag, ?, folder and Connect buttons, i then click Connect, now it shows raspberrypi Linux //192.168.8.100, Chrome Local Computer and IP Address and i click raspberrypi, it then shows IP 192.168.8.100 Port 22, Username pi Password raspberry. Then i click Connect.

It show only few seconds in top right ?, folder icon, “Raspberry Pi 192.168.100” and power icon and left it shows for few seconds “Connecting” and linux symbol penguin. Then all icons revert to back. It don’t show any other icons like play (triangle) or 5-6 other icons i have seen in screen shots.

Error: “Login failed, please check your username and password.”

I have tried to install STUDIO million times using many different instructions and it always fails.

So what i do wrong?

Expected behavior: [What you expect to happen]
