hi!

 

I just installed the new version, but I can't access the webif, does anyone have the same problem?

 

OpenPli 8.3

 

my conf:

 

[webif]

httpport = 8888
httprefresh = 10
httppollrefresh = 10
httphidetype = sh
httppiconsize = 30

I tried reinstalling 11718 and it works fine, but 11719 doesn't...

Hi.

 

Is your Oscam 11719 running ? Are your DVB channels decoded correctly ?

 

What does the startup cmd-line for your Oscam look like ? You can find out with the following function, just copy the code using CTRL+C , and then paste it into PuTTY by right-clicking in the terminal window... and then just run it:

OSCAM_BIN_FNAME="oscam"
if ps --version 2>&1 | grep -q -i "busybox"; then
   ps | grep $OSCAM_BIN_FNAME | grep -v grep | head -n 1 | grep -o '/.*$'         # feature-poor `ps` command from BusyBox (for example in OpenPLi image)
else
   ps -f --no-headers -C $OSCAM_BIN_FNAME | head -n 1 | grep -o '/.*$'            # full-featured `ps` command from Linux OS (for example in OpenATV image)
fi

If necessary, also modify the name of the Oscam binary file (in the variable OSCAM_BIN_FNAME at the beginning of the algorithm).
 

Isn't there a modified directory path to the configuration files - in the starting cmd-line ? Because in that case, you have to move your configuration files to the appropriate directory. The forced change of the configuration directory can also be detected in the startup "init.d" script, which can be found in the directory /etc/init.d/softcam.....). Look for the "-c <dir>" or "--config-dir <dir>" parameter there.

 

Try running your Oscam in the terminal as well and watch what happens:

OSCAM_BIN_FNAME="oscam"
killall -9 $OSCAM_BIN_FNAME
/usr/bin/$OSCAM_BIN_FNAME

Finally, try this as well:

OSCAM_BIN_FNAME="oscam"
/usr/bin/$OSCAM_BIN_FNAME -V

This should display info about your Oscam. Check the availability of the Webif module in the info. It is also possible that your Oscam build that you are using was not compiled including the Webif module.

 

Or... some newer libraries are required in the Linux system that are not available... and therefore your Oscam v11719 build refuses to start

[marcus83]

now I go back to version 11718, I hope OpenPli developers put the error-corrected version 11719 in the feed.

 

I update directly from the feed and there should be no problems

 

[s3n0]

Yes, but you should write why it doesn't work so that the guys from the OpenPLi team can fix the error.

 

Of course, only if it's really their fault and not yours.

[marcus83]

Yes, but you should write why it doesn't work so that the guys from the OpenPLi team can fix the error.

in my opinion they should change the oscam 11719 paths with those of OpenPli

[Tech]

We didn't change any path since we started the support of oscam, no idea why the latest oscam doesn't run on your device but I use the same feeds as you do and on my box oscam is running like a charm.....

 

As you can see in the output below, the config is still located in /etc/tuxbox/config/oscam/ 

root@vuultimo4k:~# OSCAM_BIN_FNAME="oscam"

are you using the latest version?

[marcus83]

ok i just saw that you have version 11719, i don't understand what can be in my case

[marcus83]

but why does it give me version 11714 in the feed? and not the last?

[marcus83]

how can i update openpli feeds?

[Pr2]

In OpenPLi the default path for the OScam configuration file is:  /etc/tuxbox/config/oscam/   by default oscam is not looking in this folder since it tries to use /usr/local/etc (this can be overwritten at compilation time).

 

So you need to say oscam where to find the configuration file:

So you need to start your OScam with:

 

--config-dir /etc/tuxbox/config/oscam

 

as parameter.

 

If you use the oscam from the feed everything is fine, if you manually try to install another oscam version then you need to learn how to do this properly.

 

The startup script of OScam in OpenPLi is:  /etc/init.d/softcam   which is a symlink normally pointing to softcam -> softcam.oscam

 

oscam binary is in:  /usr/bin/oscam  if you manually change it don't forget to chmod 755 oscam

 

There is no default port assigned for the OScam WebIf so if you start oscam so there is no WebIF active.

So specifying a configuration path with a valid oscam.conf  containing: httpport = XXXX  where XXXX is the port number that you want is mandatory to have OScam webif active.

okay, when I get home I try this configuration of yours, thx men!

[s3n0]

how can i update openpli feeds?

 

By command in the terminal as follows:

opkg update

Not as opkg upgrade because the upgrade argument will start updating everything. While the update argument just updates the offline list of available (online) packages.

 

Or also when you enter the Plugin-MENU (the installation Plugin-MENU) with the help of RCU, the offline list of available (online) packages in your set-top box is also updated automatically.

i added your values but it doesn’t work the same…

I don't think that you are using the standard OpenPLi OScam startup script so perform this:
 
Create a file /etc/init.d/softcam.OScamOpenPLi
 
With the following content:

#!/bin/sh
case "$1" in
start)
        ulimit -s 1024
        /usr/bin/oscam --wait 60 --config-dir /etc/tuxbox/config/oscam --daemon --pidfile /tmp/oscam.pid --restart 2 --utf8
        ;;
stop)
        kill `cat /tmp/oscam.pid` 2> /dev/null
        # in case a normal stop failed
        killall /usr/bin/oscam
        ;;
restart|reload)
        $0 stop
        $0 start
        ;;
version)
        echo "gitAUTOINC+c41959f135"
        ;;
info)
        echo "oscam gitAUTOINC+c41959f135"
        ;;
*)
        echo "Usage: $0 start|stop|restart"
        exit 1
        ;;
esac
exit 0

Then:

cd /etc/init.d/
./softcam stop
rm softcam
ln -s softcam.OScamOpenPLi softcam
./softcam start

You can also create symlink to the OScam version you want to test.
 

cd /usr/bin/
ls -Falh oscam

Check if it is already a symlink or not.

If it is a symlink then:

rm oscam
ln -s oscamXXXXX oscam

where oscamXXXX is the name of the oscam binary that you want to test.

if it's not a symlink then keep a copy of your current OScam:

mv oscam oscam_old

Then create the symlink:

ln -s oscamXXXXX oscam

Restart you softcam:

/etc/init.d/softcam restart

what I don't understand why with version 11718 works everything and with the 11719 no, also the 11719 version has the same characteristics oscam 11718 (etc.init.d)

 

enigma2-plugin-softcams-oscam_11719-emu-r798_all.ipk  ------------webif not work

 

enigma2-plugin-softcams-oscam_11718-emu-r798_all.ipk  ------------webif e oscam works regularly

[s3n0]

Hi.

 

As I wrote above... try running Oscam 11719 from the command line (via the terminal). There you will be shown exactly what the problem is - if any at all arose when starting this Oscam. You can easily run it without any parameters. First kill it as force  killall -9 oscam  and then start it again  /usr/bin/oscam  Then... you can to stop the Oscam process (if it is started), by sending the keyboard shortcut "CTRL+C" into the terminal.

 

In your "init.d" script, I don't see a parameter for specifying configuration directory. That's all right. Thus, the system is searched in several folders for the presence of configuration for Oscam. Here is the Oscam source code and directory search sequence. Check whether there are already several other Oscam configuration files in another (next) folder:

static const char* confdirs[] =
    {
        "/etc/tuxbox/config/",
        "/etc/tuxbox/config/oscam/",
        "/var/tuxbox/config/",
        "/usr/keys/",
        "/var/keys/",
        "/var/etc/oscam/",
        "/var/etc/",
        "/var/oscam/",
        "/config/oscam/",
        NULL
    };

BTW, where did you download these IPK packages ? According to their exact name, they do not belong to the PLi feed server . They are from another source. Not from the PLi feed. This could be a faulty build version of Oscam.The IPK package for Oscam, on the PLi feed, has a name such as:

 

enigma2-plugin-softcams-oscam-emu_git1988+a137cbf-r0.3_mips32el.ipk

enigma2-plugin-softcams-oscam_git10622+ede10dc-r0.1_mips32el.ipk

enigma2-plugin-softcams-oscam_git10622+ede10dc-r0.1_cortexa15hf-neon-vfpv4.ipk

...

etc.
