Satnogs-auto-scheduler Issues

Hi. I’m running into a few issues with Auto-Scheduler, can folks have a quick look and give me a few pointers.

Thanks
Karl.

Have you just installed satnogs-auto-scheduler, or did it work previously?

If you just install it, did you really run all of these?

cd satnogs-auto-scheduler
virtualenv -p python3 env
source env/bin/activate
pip install .
$ ./schedule_single_station.py --version

If you did, what was the output of pip install . and $ ./schedule_single_station.py --version?

Did you perform the installation as the same user as specified in /etc/systemd/system/satnogs-auto-scheduler.service (user is pi in README.md · master · librespacefoundation / SatNOGS / satnogs-auto-scheduler · GitLab )

Perhaps re-run the pip install ., may be updated dependency after a git pull ?

I Followed the instructions to the T and I’m a huge advocate of the RTFM rule. I have two stations at the same location so i might be better off just cloning the one that works and using that image.
Thanks for the reply.

After i reboot i get this ?? But before i reboot it appears to be correctly installed.

Sorry, it all looks good to me Maybe the problem is related to the python env stuff, but I don’t know how it is supposed to work. Hopefully someone else can chip in.

The tqdm package on my system is here:

satnogs-auto-scheduler/env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/tqdm/_tqdm.py

So if it can’t find that, it points to your python environment not being read correctly.

In your other output, there is this:

 Not overwriting existing python script /home/pi/satnogs-auto-scheduler/env/bin/python (you must use /home/pi/satnogs-auto-scheduler/env/bin/python3)

Perhaps you should remove and re-create your virtual environment and try to run the script manually “by hand” instead of in the crontab. So go to your satnogs-auto-scheduler directory and run something like this:

rm -rf env
virtualenv -p python3 env
source env/bin/activate
pip install .
