Hi I'm new to this forum and to the openEnergyMonitor. I'm following the instructions to build an SD from scratch for the pi as per https://github.com/emoncms/docs/blob/master/raspberrypibuild.md
I've made it to step 5 from the guide and on the section titled Python Gateway I realized that I have some missing files on my SD card. These are the rfm2pigateway.py and the rfm2pigateway.init.dist which it appears that they should be in the /var/www/emoncms/Modules/raspberrypi/ directory.
I followed all the instructions up to there with no issues. Any ideas as to what's gone wrong? or where could I get these files from?
Appreciate your help.
Sam.
Re: missing rfm2pigateway files while building SD from scratch
Hello Sam, if your building an SD card install, I would recommend skipping that guide to the new one which is currently in testing here, the lifespan of the SD card should be much longer with it: https://github.com/emoncms/emoncms/tree/bufferedwrite
I'm running this new version on my own system here and so will be able to support it better too.
Re: missing rfm2pigateway files while building SD from scratch
Where did you find the https://github.com/emoncms/docs/blob/master/raspberrypibuild.md guide linked from? That one has actually been depreciated for a while, I've added a note to the top.
Re: missing rfm2pigateway files while building SD from scratch
I googled something like "emoncms build sd" and it's the first link that came up.
Anyway ... I'll look at that other link and try that one instead.
Thanks
Sam
