Hyperion not working on osmc 207.09-2

  • Hi all,


    My raspberry Pi2 was not booting up anymore some weeks ago (because an update maybe?) so i reinstall OSMC from scratch. I have been able to install all my previous applications, programs and tools except Hyperion. The software looks to be installed correctly but at the end of the installation process there is not Hyperion directories anywhere:

    -bash: cd: /opt/hyperion/: No such file or directory


    So I cannot start the Hyperion process nor copy my configuration file .json created with Hypercon.


    The only strange thing I see is that the installation program is downloading new Hyperion bersion for rpi3 but I'm using rpi2. They should be the same in this case I think.


    Any ideas please?


    Thank you so much in advance!

  • I used to have Hyperion working on my Raspberry Pi1 until the SD got corrupted.
    Forgot about it for a while but am now tying to get it back to its former glory and still not there yet.


    For what it's worth I came up against the same issue so I installed 'updatedb' to help search around.


    $ locate 'hyperion'
    shows no hyperion file in
    /etc/init.d


    but it is found (with associated files) in two other locations


    /usr/bin/hyperiond
    and
    /usr/share/hyperion/bin/hyperiond


    thats all I can add for now until I get mine running - hopefully in the next day or two.

  • isnt it "sudo service hyperion start" on osmc? i am not sure


    On my OSMC:

    Code
    osmc@osmc-FR:~$ uname -a
    Linux osmc-FR 4.9.29-10-osmc #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Oct 9 02:18:18 UTC 2017 armv7l GNU/Linux


    This works to start Hyperion "sudo systemctl start hyperion.service"

  • Many thanks Akriss!


    osmc@omgosmc:~$ sudo bash
    root@omgosmc:/home/osmc# systemctl start hyperion.service
    root@omgosmc:/home/osmc# systemctl list-unit-files|grep enabled


    UNIT FILE STATE
    ...snipped...
    hyperion.service enabled
    ....snipped...

    and is still up after a reboot.


    One step closer!

  • STOP PRESS Marcos_!
    I didn't realise (until reading some related post) that the hypercon tool (used to generate the config file for Hyperion) now has an automated install tool.
    (be sure to have a copy/backup of your hyperion.config.json file)


    Started hypercon (java -jar ./HyperCon.jar)
    Clicked on the SSH tab
    Entered the ssh params to login in to OSMC on the Pi.
    Clicked on 'Connect'
    Clicked on 'Remove Hyperion'
    Clicked on 'Inst./Upd. Hyperion'
    Clicked on 'Local Config Path' (made sure it was referencing the config file I had created earlier)
    Clicked on 'Send Config'


    At this point the interface appeared to lock up so I killed it and checked to see if the config file was in /etc/hyperion and it was.


    Finally - rebooted the Pi
    Got the startup led swirl!
    Clicked through a few screens and started a video... AWESOME!
    Everything appears to be working correctly!
    The GUI response time may be a bit slower so I may push the clock speed a bit - In the meantime I'm off to enjoy the splash of colour!!!


    Good Luck!
