Newbie problem installing silfreed packages for Fedora

[Robert Hampf]

Hi

I've got som problems installing owfs on Fedora 16.

I tried to install owfs by using the silfreed packages for Fedora
16.  I installed owfs-fs.x86_64 0:2.8p13-1.fc16 and owfs-libs.x86_64
0:2.8p13-1.fc16.

When I do systemctl restart owfs.service I don't se any errors but
when I look in /var/log/messages I see:

Jan  2 13:43:28 mur owfs[12782]: Mounting One Wire file system:
DEFAULT: ow_arg.c:ARG_Device(72) Cannot access device /dev/ttyS100
Jan  2 13:43:28 mur owfs[12782]: [  OK  ]

There is no /dev/ttyS100 in /dev.  Should I make it with mknod or
should it be made automatically?

Is there something I have overlooked?  Can somebody point me to some
instructions for installing these packages on Fedora?

TIA

Hi Robert!

How is your 1wire bus connected to the Fedora machine? Serial port? USB?
You probably need to edit /etc/sysconfig/owserver (or owfs) to set the
right device, but I'm a SuSE person and don't know Fedora that well :)

Try "grep ttyS100 /etc/* /etc/*/*" to find the right file.

Thank you very much for your help.  I have a DS9490 on the USB bus.  I
found the file but also realised I have a lot left to do as I can't
find anything in /var/log/messages indicating that that the device is
recognised.

I would need some kind of howto to know what I should do in which
order to get these packages working.  Do you know if such a document
exists or could you maybe write a few lines what I should do?   I have
tried to study the sourceforge documentation but important bits seem
to be missing.

Thank you for your help

Well, a DS9490 is a native USB device,

The startup command should be "--usb=all" (or just "-u") rather than "-d /dev/ttyS100".

Basically, the program needs to be told where to find the bus masters, since they usually don't declare themselves.

Thank you for your reply.  I look forward to getting home and trying
this.

I tried --usb=all and -d and got this:

Jan 30 13:34:03 hlemmur kernel: [1090925.876698] fuse init (API version 7.17)
Jan 30 13:34:04 hlemmur owfs[3962]: Mounting One Wire file system: DEFAULT: owlib.c:SetupSingleInboundConnection(201) Cannot open USB bus master
Jan 30 13:34:04 hlemmur owfs[3962]: DEFAULT: owlib.c:LibStart(54) No valid 1-wire buses found
Jan 30 13:34:04 hlemmur owfs[3962]: [FAILED]

Jan 30 13:34:04 hlemmur systemd[1]: Unit owfs.service entered failed state.

Do I need to load a module other than fuse?  What module should I
load?  Where should I find it?  I'm asking because it's not quite
clear to me whether I have installed all the necessary packages from
silfreed.  Also, what is the recommended way to load the module(s)?

Thank you

Maybe it's a dumb advice but did You run it as root or a regular user?
I think someone had similar problem and running as root helped

Hello!
You're right. Robert try running all of your programs for OWFS under
the su command. I would imagine that during your installation of
Fedora you did create a root user and password. Further I would also
imagine that you've got both the password available and are running
these OWFS programs under your regular user because that's how they
were originally installed.

Hardware access requires root level for it to work properly. Printer
programs are already installed to, ah, take advantage of that function
and that's why a normal user can just print his work from his regular
ID.

So either run your OWFS applications under the su program shell (which
is elevated but it may not cover everything.) or if that fails, try
the root user.

Also set things up to log everything, and post it here.

Thank you for your reply!

I did it as root:

[root@hlemmur ~]# systemctl start owfs.service
Job failed. See system logs and 'systemctl status' for details.

Also:

[root@hlemmur ~]# systemctl status owfs.service
owfs.service - SYSV: OWFS is a userspace virtual filesystem providing access to 1-Wire networks.
               Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/owfs)
                 Active: failed since Mon, 30 Jan 2012 21:44:02 +0200; 2min 8s ago

                    CGroup: name=systemd:/system/owfs.service

And /var/log/messages shows:

Thank you for your reply!

I'm sorry for omitting that information.  I run as root for now as I
would like to get some readings out of this before I try to get
something delivered to regular users.

On the hardware level I don't quite understand how USB loads drivers
but it seems to me that the necessary drivers should be loaded at boot
time in this case.

Is there a way to get more information in the logs from owfs?  Does
owfs have an own log or does it put its output in /var/log/messages?
I can't find anything about it on the man page.

Do you know whether there is more information about how to use these
silfreed packages?  I didn't even know quite which packages to
install when I found them.

I have tried installing from source before but I don't understand what
to do after compiling to be able to get readings.  I hoped the
silfreed packages would solve that but I'm still stuck.

Maybe it's good idea to compile owfs if there is no other idea why it  
doesn't work. Maybe there is some dependency which does not get installed.
Compilation is fairly easy.
./configure
(look at the output and make sure the usb is enabled)

Compile-time options:
                   Caching is enabled
                       USB is enabled
If USB says DISABLED then You have to install libusb-dev package (I use  
Ubuntu and it is showed under this name in Synaptic)

make
make install
then owfs should be i /opt/owfs/bin
First try to run owserver --debug  instead of owfs to rule out problems  
with fuse. You can get readings from owserver with owread.

Can you post dmesg output after plugging in the 1-wire adapter

You can get considerable log information.

Try
sudo /opt/owfs/bin/owfs --debug --usb=all -m /your/directory --allow_other &> /your/logfile

Thank you very much for this advice.  I will try installing from
source again when I get a little quality time with my box.

Hi

At last I have had time to try installing owfs again.

I now found a howto for the whole process of installing and took advice
from it when following your instructions:
http://wiki.temperatur.nu/index.php/OWFS_HowTo (Sorry, it's in Swedish.)

So I took your advice. A kind of a log is at:
http://www.skutan.com/owfs.txt

It was enabled but owfs was DISABLED until I installed fuse-devel.

Here I didn't see any problems.

There is something about Avahi support missing.  Is that fatal in this
case?

> Can you post dmesg output after plugging in the 1-wire adapter

I can't find anything in /var/log/messages or by running dmesg
that would be the result of plugging in the adapter.  Nothing is
written to messages on the same minute or the closest minutes.

I hope there is something making sense to you as I don't know how to
carry on.

Thank you very much for your help.

No Avahi isn't needed. You can start with --nozero to block checking for the libraries.

I'm not familiar with Your adapter but I think there should be something  
in dmesg.
Could you remind me what adapter do you use?
What does lsusb show?

It's a DS9490R.

lsusb says:

Can't see anything related to the adaptor.  I connected an harddisk to
the usb to see whether it showed anything else than hubs.  The mouse
is a ps/2.  I'll post lsusb -v at http://www.skutan.com/owfs2.txt.

Should I load any modules to se the adaptor or do you think it is
dead?

Thank you very much for your help.

Maybe it's broken.

See here
http://apartment-automation.blogspot.com/2009/09/installing-1-wire-usb-adapter-ds9490r.html
$ dmesg
[1553881.079000] Driver for 1-wire Dallas network protocol.
[1553881.121233] usbcore: registered new interface driver DS9490R
[1553882.700959] w1_master_driver w1_bus_master1: Family 81 for  
81.0000002d0f1d.39 is not registered.

Maybe download Ubuntu and run it as live CD and see if dmesg outputs  
something.
Maybe Your distro does not have the necessary kernel modules?

Have you measured the voltage in r11 connector?
