  • Raspberry PI 5 Migration -- Issue

    From Rmh@VERT/UNICYBER to DIGITAL MAN on Tue Feb 6 20:39:13 2024
    Hi Digital Man,

    Running a BBS migration I had a minor issue, and not sure whether I am doing anything wrong.

    Basically I was following the following instructions: https://wiki.synchro.net/howto:raspbian_install

    The code seemed compiling fine, I moved my old content into the new system and I had to also run an upgrade as I didn't realise the system has changed so much.
    So far all seemed ok.

    Not sure why is that, specially considering the archirtecture is "aarch64" , so it should be gcc.linux.aarch64.exe.release instead.

    To skip the error I symlinked the file (the .qwk was working. it wouldn't pack the bundle).

    Not sure whether I've missed anything at all? I have probably done something wrong, but if you know what I am missing, it would be great to hear from you.

    As always, your help is very much appreciated.

    Thanks

    That's weird. What do you have set in SCFG->External Programs->Timed Events->BINKOUT ?

    I'd search for that path in your ctrl/*.ini files - that wouldn't normally be in there.

    That's an unusual/unexpected configuration. Do you know how those start-up directories got set that way to begin with? There's nothing in Synchronet that would automatically set/default them to those paths or any documentation that would instruct a sysop to do that.

    Really, I don't have the foggiest clue!! I am so surprised about that one as well.
    Let me check in the old Centos Box to see what the original files look like. But
    thinking back, I cannot remember setting that up manually, I believe I was using,
    most of the time, the scfg tooling.

    Let me get back to you later in the day.

    Many thanks.
