Hi Daniel,

I've been struggling for days now to install dsptoolkit. Freshly installed bullseye on a raspberry pi 3b. Upon running the install script I get a bunch of errors. The package python3-lxml is installed but I get the below error anyway. Could you please help?

Thank you,

Thomas

  Looks like the latest apt just aborts if it doesn't fidn a specific package. We've mad some changes on the install script, try again.

  Thanks Daniel,

  the install works now mostly, except this error

  mv: failed to preserve ownership for '/boot/config.txt': Operation not permitted

   

  Installing bash with sudo right away gets stuck with this error:

  (23) Failed writing body

   

  Ignoring those two errors I tried applying rew filters which gets me 

  '14 filters given, but filter bank has only 0 slots'

   

  When I then try to remedy this by installing the default profile I get

  Failed to install DSP profile https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hifiberry/hifiberry-dsp/master/sample_files/xml/dacdsp-default.xml

   

  Thank you

  That's just normal

  Check the sigmatcp logs:
  
  journalctl -f sigmatcp
  
  You might find more information there.

  Trying to access the journal I'm just getting an invalid argument error:

  Looks like the service hasn't been installed at all or systemd hasn't been reloaded correctly.
  
  Check if the file /lib/systemd/system/sigmatcp.service exists. If it's there, just reboot.

  sigmatcp.service is present in the folder you specified. Rebooted, tried again but no luck. Just the same error message (invalid argument) again

  HiFiBerry team March 21, 2023 14:08

  Ok, it's 
  
  journalctl -f -u sigmatcp

  Tomislav Marsic March 21, 2023 14:11

  Ok, with this I get:

  You don't see any other messages when you install the DSP profile?

• 0
  
  Tomislav Marsic March 21, 2023 14:20

  When I try installing the profile with the server running I only get:

  Failed to install DSP profile https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hifiberry/hifiberry-dsp/master/sample_files/xml/dacdsp-default.xml

   

  The server needs to be running, right? Without that I get a "connection refused" error

  HiFiBerry team March 21, 2023 14:35

  Yes. Do you get a "connection refused"?

• 0
  
  Tomislav Marsic March 21, 2023 14:37

  I only get "coonection refused" when the server is not running. In that case the error is:

  During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

  Hi Daniel, anything new on the issue?

  No, if the server is running and not given any error messages, I can't really say what's the problem in your system. 
  
  I recommend to test if this is working on HiFiBerryOS.

  I experience similar problems with the sigmatcp server with a fresh raspberryOS install. After trying to restart the sigmatcpserver it quits every time after a few seconds:

  Ok, so far that looks normal as you probably haven't created a .hifiberry directory. Let's no try it as root (that's what systemd is doing):

  All good. Just stop it and try restarting sigmatcp
  
  systemctl restart sigmatcp

  Gilbert August 24, 2023 13:34

  not really, sigmatcp still quits after a few seconds and therefore dsptoolkit can't install a profile, as far as I unterstand it.

  Hmm, should be fine. Try the latest version from Github. Just re-run the installer. It has been updated to install the version from Github now.

  Installing it over the old files didn't work but i tried now again a fresh install with the updated Github script, now it works again perfect, thanks.
