not sure what happens but it starts the Kivy Python Library upgrade and it ends there with a cpu at 100%

Whoops! I forgot that I made this change. Due to a bunch of compatibility issues between different versions of Python, different versions of Kivy and different Raspberry Pi models, I have had to bump the version of Kivy used by the console. On a Pi3 this version has to be compiled from source and therefore it will take time (maybe 45 mins to an hour). Start the update again, leave it running and it should finish. If after 2 hours it is still working on it, then I will look into it again :frowning:

ok, the pi is going to boil a bit but it’ll survive. Will let you know if it melts or finishes the compile :slight_smile: whatever comes first

PS : might add a note on the other page to warn some users :wink:

      Python recognizes 'cryptography.hazmat.bindings._rust' as an importable package,
      but it is not listed in the `packages` configuration of setuptools.

      'cryptography.hazmat.bindings._rust' has been automatically added to the distribution only
      because it may contain data files, but this behavior is likely to change
      in future versions of setuptools (and therefore is considered deprecated).

      Please make sure that 'cryptography.hazmat.bindings._rust' is included as a package by using
      the `packages` configuration field or the proper discovery methods
      (for example by using `find_namespace_packages(...)`/`find_namespace:`
      instead of `find_packages(...)`/`find:`).

      You can read more about "package discovery" and "data files" on setuptools
      documentation page.

  error: can't find Rust compiler

  If you are using an outdated pip version, it is possible a prebuilt wheel is available for this package but pip is not able to install from it. Installing from the wheel would avoid the need for a Rust compiler.

  To update pip, run:

      pip install --upgrade pip

  and then retry package installation.

  If you did intend to build this package from source, try installing a Rust compiler from your system package manager and ensure it is on the PATH during installation. Alternatively, rustup (available at https://rustup.rs) is the recommended way to download and update the Rust compiler toolchain.

  This package requires Rust >=1.48.0.

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

Yep it’s not ideal! I think at some point I am going to have to drop support for the Pi3. The console only works on the legacy version of Raspberry Pi OS, which is running the much outdated Python 3.7, which is slowly creating more and more compatibility issues. I don’t have this issue on the Pi4 as that can use pre-compiled versions of Kivy that install in an instant

PS : might add a note on the other page to warn some users :wink:

Just done that!

I assume you are running on a Pi4? Can you confirm that you are using the latest Bullseye version of Raspberry Pi OS?

as long you can find them and at a reasonable price … and those pi3 are still valuable little computers …

Yep, completely understood. I am still running my console on a Pi3 so I will keep it going for as long as possible! It would be easier if there weren’t so many supply shortages

Ah OK, I’m really sorry but you are going to have to reinstall the latest Bullseye version of Raspberry Pi OS on your Pi4. You currently have the legacy Buster version which is causing the issues you are seeing

Thank you - Hadn’t realized I was so far behind. wfpiconsole has been very stable and not needed any attention! upgrade in process

Tried the update. . . ERROR [Config ] Unable to fetch station metadata

wfpiconcole start . . . several errors.

How do I roll it back to v22.12.3 ?

I’m still a “rookie” at this stuff. . .I know enough to be very dangerous when it comes to doing computer updates. . .but I just ran ‘wfpiconsole stable’ and the display updated.
now showing " Current version: v23.3.1 "

OK, updated my Pi4 from Buster to Bullseye. That mostly went fine except that it turned off the WiFi. Had to dig out a USB keyboard and mouse to reenable. Then I had to install Python 3 and Rust. Had to change python to point to python3 instead of python2. The Rust install seemed to go fine. Running wfpiconsole update took a while in the cryptography module, but updated cleanly. Now something is wrong in Kivy:

Hmmm, sounds like since I’m running on a Pi 3 I want to freeze at version I currently have!

17

As always, thank you very much @peter :+1:

My PiConsole runs on a Pi3, no problem with the update - and it didn’t even take that long, I estimate around 1/2 hour…

The Pi3 didn’t get too hot😀

18

Not necessarily. As long as you are patient, the update should run perfectly well on a Pi3

19

How did you upgrade from Buster to Bullseye? I have a feeling you may have tried an in place upgrade rather than flashing your SD card with a brand new image. If so, it’s best to grab a new image from here: Operating system images – Raspberry Pi and start from there

20

Sounds like you managed to get it fixed?

21

Thank you, Peter. I came to the same conclusion! Reinstalled with your curl script. All seemed to go fine to a point. I copied the API keys from my old ini file and entered those on startup. No errors, but no display and the script just seems to hang:
