Reactor-Editor / Reactor-ui-Status Errors

[Crille]

@matteburk Try installing 21200 just to see if you get MSR running again.

[toggledbits]

The messages in the log you posted indicate that NODE_PATH is incorrectly set, so I now cannot be sure if we're back at your original problem because you have tried to run it from the command line and this log is from that, or if this log is from an attempted systemd startup, which makes no sense because the service file you published earlier sets the environment variable correctly.

I've given you everything you need to get going again. I'm not sure what else to do. You need to figure it out, though, because this is how this and all future builds will be working, and right now, you're the only person I know of that isn't running, so I'm assuming its a local configuration issue and not a package/software issue.

Can you stop any local startup, start again with systemd, and post the startup portion of the log file? I don't want to see the error message again, I need to see all the messages from a Reactor startup under systemd. That will start with the string Reactor <version> starting on <nodejs version> and give me everything up to Startup complete.

[Matteburk]

@toggledbits ok... yes for sure it is me setting something up wrong... will struggle some more...

[Matteburk]

@crille tried .....

[Matteburk]

@toggledbits
I dont see the string reactor version starting on XXXX as you wrote.

From the var/log syslog I get this after stopped and started reactor via systemctl restart reactor

In reactor.log

[Matteburk]

@toggledbits
hmmm nothing is being logged there after stop ,start. the log file has not been updated since I tried node app.js for a couple of hours ago

[toggledbits]

OK. Post that startup, then. It will tell me a few things as well.

[toggledbits]

Wait, I'm really confused, you said "nothing is being logged there after stop ,start". Then where did the stuff you posted here come from?

[Matteburk]

@toggledbits they that you refer to are there but nothing after I now stopped and started

[Matteburk]

@toggledbits But if I no try to start via node app.js
I get in terminal window

[toggledbits]

Well that's because you're not in the Reactor directory.

Gaaah..... im tired and beginner.....Sorry....

ok so this I no get when I run node app.js

[toggledbits]

Right. And we've covered that. If you run it from the command line, you need to use

    NODE_PATH=$(pwd) node app

Do that, and please post (a) the startup messages from logs/reactor.log as specified in my previous post, and (b) the contents of /etc/systemd/system/reactor.service again.

[Matteburk]

@toggledbits

We have a winner!

I did
cd reactor
NODE_PATH=$(pwd) node app ( this line I totally missed)

and my house lit up like a Christmas trea!

Thank you for your patience with me Patrick!

[toggledbits]

No, we're not done. That's not the way to run Reactor. You need to be running it under systemd. Please provide the information above as requested.

[toggledbits]

OK. Looks good.

First, make sure your command line Reactor is stopped. This is important, obviously, as the systemd Reactor will not start and keep trying to start if your command line Reactor is still running. Also, let's remove the existing Reactor log file:

    rm /home/pi/reactor/logs/reactor.log

Then, sudo systemctl daemon-reload

Then, sudo systemctl restart reactor

Then try to get into the Reactor UI. If you can't get into the UI, look at the reactor.log file for messages. In you still have the "common/util" exception, go up to the startup lines and look at what it reports for NODE_PATH and post that here.

[Matteburk]

@toggledbits Could not reach thrue UI .

The reactor.log file is no missing since the rm command.....

[toggledbits]

OK. Then /var/log/syslog

And tell me, how did you edit the service file? There are some excess blank lines in what you posted when I got it formatted as code on the forums... that's... odd... did you edit it on the system, or did you pull it up to a Mac or Windows, edit it, and then push it down? Or something else?
