Does the drive mount when you plug it in to your PC? That's the first ACID test to make sure it appears

When I first flashed it I saw /boot. Now I don't see that in Explorer.

Looks like it's not installed correctly. Can you run an "ls -lart" within the teslacam folder and again in the services folder? You may need to clone the repo again

Ok, and it's not an issue that it's all running as root?
Should I reflash?

My steps for cloning the repo is valid?

cd /home/pi
git clone https://github.com/milesburton/teslacam

Ok... I know one of your desires was to get an updated install guide setup. I'd be happy to help flush things out during my initial testing of this. I didn't see anything about the ~/teslacam/installation/sudoers installation so I'll add that to my notes thus far

I wonder if one of my issues is using this:

When doing the 1st npm install I get this. Is this of concern?

Re-did everything. Services don't seem to ever start. I tried entering things into the /etc/rc.local but no go. Not sure where I'm going wrong. These are my steps:

Steps to get a Raspberry Pi Zero W setup for TeslaCam on Windows

Hardware:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013G4EAEI/
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0748MPQT4/
64GB SDHC Card (already had one I got from Costco)

Download and the latest "lite" Raspbian: https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/
Download and install Etcher: https://www.balena.io/etcher/

Insert your SDHC card into your PC. Launch Etcher. Point it to the location of the Raspbian .zip file and flash the card. When that is completed, re-insert the SDHC card into your PC

===== Enable OTG on the Pi Zero W =====

Follow this great guide to setup OTG on the Pi Zero W: https://blog.gbaman.info/?p=791

Browse to the /boot partition on the SDHC card on your PC
Add this to the bottom of the config.txt file:
dtoverlay=dwc2
Save the file

Add this to the cmdline.txt file. Place it right after rootwait with a space at the end of it. Be careful as syntax is critical:
modules-load=dwc2,g_ether

Save the file

===== Configure WiFi =====

Follow this guide for WiFi setup: https://www.raspberrypi-spy.co.uk/2017/04/manually-setting-up-pi-wifi-using-wpa_supplicant-conf/

Create a file called wpa_supplicant.conf
Paste this for the WiFi Setup:

country=us
update_config=1
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

network={
scan_ssid=1
ssid="yourwifi"
psk="yourpassword"
}

Save the file

==== Boot the Pi Zero W for the first time =====

Eject the SDHC card from your PC
Place the SDHC card into the proper slot on the Pi Zero W
Connect your USB Micro to USB cable to the USB port on the Pi Zero W
Connect the this to your PC and wait for the Pi to boot (about 2 minutes. The green light on the Pi will be solid green)

Use an SSH client to SSH to the Pi Zero W

hostname: rasbperrypi.local
username: pi
password: raspberry

===== Installing daemontools =====
https://isotope11.com/blog/manage-your-services-with-daemontools

SSH back into the Pi to install daemontools:

sudo su -
mkdir -p /package
chmod 1755 /package
cd /package

wget http://cr.yp.to/daemontools/daemontools-0.76.tar.gz
tar -xpf daemontools-0.76.tar.gz
rm -f daemontools-0.76.tar.gz
cd admin/daemontools-0.76

ed ./src/conf-cc
1s/$/ -include errno.h/
wq

package/install

apt-get install csh
csh -cf '/command/svscanboot &'
sed -i "1 a\csh -cf '/command/svscanboot &'" /etc/rc.local
chmod +x /etc/rc.local
reboot

===== Install Node.js =====

mkdir -p /opt/node; cd /opt/node
wget https://nodejs.org/dist/v10.16.0/node-v10.16.0-linux-armv6l.tar.xz
tar -xvf node-v10.16.0-linux-armv6l.tar.xz
chown -R root:root node-v10.16.0-linux-armv6l
ln -s /opt/node/node-v10.16.0-linux-armv6l/bin/* /usr/bin/

===== Install GIT =====

apt-get install git

As the pi User:

cd /home/pi
git clone https://github.com/milesburton/teslacam

===== Final Steps =====

As root:

mkdir -p /etc/service;cd /etc/service;ln -s /home/pi/teslacam/services/* .
vi /etc/sudoers
r /home/pi/teslacam/installation/sudoers
reboot

As the pi User:

cd /home/pi/teslacam;npm install
cd /home/pi/teslacam/src/remote;npm install

sudo poweroff

Plug the Pi Zero W into the Tesla media USB ports (the front ports). Make sure you use the data port on the Pi, google if you are unsure.
Reboot, once the automatic configuration completes (circa 1 minute) the car should detect the Pi as a USB drive.

So I only have the USB cable connected to my PC now. I don't have external power running to the Pi at the moment. When I run the command connected like this I don't get a drive mounted on my PC. Should I be supplying external power in the outtermost USB port on the Pi then connecting it to a USB port on my PC with 2nd port towards the inside of the pi?

:( Not doing it with either a single USB cable or externally powered. I'm going to try the stretch-lite flashing and see if that is a culprit. Not sure what I'm doing wrong here otherwise...

A quick breakdown of permission stuff though. I'm doing everything as root except when I clone the repo. I'm doing that as the pi user and I'm also running the node dashcam-monitor.js command as the pi user. I have the sudoers file in place as well....

No errors doing that but I don't see a USB disk appear on the PC:

I'll try Stretch and doing the main branch one more time then give the ext4 branch a go if that fails again.
Thanks for all the help!

ps did you see this (I forgot about it)

Modify the /boot partition to enable USB OTG. We need to enable g_mass_storage and dw2. 2b. Edit your cmdline.txt to include "loop.max_part=31". The file should look similar to: "dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=serial0,115200 console=tty1 root=PARTUUID=53202854-02 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline fsck.repair=yes loop.max_part=31 rootwait modules-load=dwc2,g_mass_storage

I only have this portion:

===== Enable OTG on the Pi Zero W =====

Follow this great guide to setup OTG on the Pi Zero W: https://blog.gbaman.info/?p=791

Browse to the /boot partition on the SDHC card on your PC
Add this to the bottom of the config.txt file:
dtoverlay=dwc2
Save the file

Add this to the cmdline.txt file. Place it right after rootwait with a space at the end of it. Be careful as syntax is critical:
modules-load=dwc2,g_ether

Save the file

Ok i'm trying this out on stretch as is. I'll make the change to the cmdline.txt (you mentioned it's the config.txt file so correct me if I'm wrong) after I get it up and running again

natrlhy avatar natrlhy commented on August 22, 2024

Boom! When I added the g_mass_storage module to the cmdline.txt file, rebooted and ran node dashcam-monitor.js it mounted a 1GB USB drive on the PC. You're notes did call out having g_mass_storage setup but I was doing a copy from the URL that was referenced.

I do notice that services still aren't starting though. They don't seem to background processes so do they just run on boot and that's it?

Ok when I reboot the pi, I get an error on the PC saying USB mass storage device not recognized and I don't see a drive mounted.

I also don't see any log info here:

~/teslacam/services/dashcam-monitor/log/main

I was going by your instructions of creating the links to services:

/etc/service ln -s /home/pi/teslacam/services/* .

/etc/service doesn't exist so I'm creating it. /etc/services is a file that exists already so not sure if thing service wise are setup properly.

:( Not doing it with either a single USB cable or externally powered. I'm going to try the stretch-lite flashing and see if that is a culprit. Not sure what I'm doing wrong here otherwise...

A quick breakdown of permission stuff though. I'm doing everything as root except when I clone the repo. I'm doing that as the pi user and I'm also running the node dashcam-monitor.js command as the pi user. I have the sudoers file in place as well....

So, I'm EXACTLY the same place. I've been at this for hours and can't get this going. If you resolve this, please ping me.

Edit: I just noticed in your instructions I'm supposed to "cd /etc/service ln -s /home/pi/teslacam/services/* " /etc/service does not exist in my system. I just tried doing a mkdir but is this maybe an issue with DaemonTools not installing right?

from teslacam.

kfulgham avatar kfulgham commented on August 22, 2024

OK let's try something simple. Let's start the dashcam-monitor.js directly. To do that, cd /home/pi/teslacam/src; node dashcam-monitor.js // whilst plugged in to your computer. The services could be something irrelevant. Now you've checked out the code again, what did npm run start do for you from /home/pi/teslacam?

Ok, after my above edit and a fourth attempt at redoing everything I now have node dashcam-monitor.js mount a drive to my local machine. It still doesn't run as a service but this is progress.

`pi@raspberrypi:~/teslacam $ npm start

[email protected] start /home/pi/teslacam
node src/services start

Running [sudo svc -u /home/pi/teslacam/./services/dashcam-monitor]

Side note: is the /teslacam/./services an issue? that period in the folder stands out to me.

Right, looks like services isn't correctly cloned down. You need the files in this directory to appear

https://github.com/milesburton/teslacam/tree/master/services

you could try a git reset --hard, that should revert any changes you may have made accidentally.

I am using buster-lite and had same issue of file does not exist. Not sure this was the fix, but try creating a symbolic link to /opt/node/bin/node in /bin. we already have node in /usr/bin, but add it to /bin folder. Let me know if this fixes anyone else.

I still have a problem where supervise is not running and the rc.local does not seem to kick off /command/svscanboot. Anyone have recommendation? Even if I sudo /command/svscanboot &, I see supervise not running.
sudo supervise /etc/service/dashcam-monitor does run the service.

Hopefully the image installer will resolve these issues. It shouldn't be long before that's merged to master.

from teslacam.

Vikinge avatar Vikinge commented on August 22, 2024

I found my two issues.

  1. i added the /command/svscanboot to the end of rc.local, it needed to be above the exit 0 line.
  2. the file svscanboot pointed to /service in three locations, I changed all to /etc/service. I will try to install in my car later today. but it boots and drive mount appears on my mac.

thank you.
