🐛 | RFID Reader does not work

Open markusf1895 opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

Bug

The RFID Reader does work, but no information flows after a scan into the UI.

What I did

  • run cd; rm buster-install-*; wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MiczFlor/RPi-Jukebox-RFID/master/scripts/installscripts/buster install-default.sh; chmod +x buster-install-default.sh; ./buster-install-default.sh
  • https://github.com/MiczFlor/RPi-Jukebox-RFID/wiki/MANUAL#link-a-new-card-to-a-folder-or-stream-in-the-web-app tried, but the "last used chip" file is not created!
  • change to git+https://github.com/lthiery/SPI-Py.git#egg=spi-py in requirements.txt
  • run sudo python3 -m pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall -r requirements.txt
  • run python3 RegisterDevice.py, but an error appeared.

What happened

pi@raspberrypi:~/RPi-Jukebox-RFID/scripts $ python3 RegisterDevice.py Choose the reader from list 0 Sycreader RFID Technology Co., Ltd SYC ID&IC USB Reader Device Number: 0 Exception ignored in: <function BaseEventLoop.__del__ at 0xb61d3300> Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.7/asyncio/base_events.py", line 622, in __del__ warnings.warn(f"unclosed event loop {self!r}", ResourceWarning, File "/usr/lib/python3.7/asyncio/base_events.py", line 390, in __repr__ f'<{self.__class__.__name__} running={self.is_running()} ' File "/usr/lib/python3.7/asyncio/base_events.py", line 1794, in get_debug return self._debug AttributeError: '_UnixSelectorEventLoop' object has no attribute '_debug'

I expected this to happen

If I put a chip on the reader, the "last used chip" file should be generated.

@MiczFlor, please tell me the possible mistakes in the code. I want to fix the bug but would be reluctant to understand the entire code.

markusf1895 avatar Sep 05 '22 12:09 markusf1895

Was fixed in #1791, but this is not part of master yet.

I have tried. No remedy! Also, i did write "change to git+https://github.com/lthiery/SPI-Py.git#egg=spi-py in requirements.txt" in "What I did"

Installing evdev via $sudo pip3 install evdev fixed the issue for me with exactly the same hardware setup

First of all. Thanks for your answer. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to have been the problem for me. See the following: pi@raspberrypi:~/RPi-Jukebox-RFID/scripts $ sudo pip3 install evdev Looking in indexes: https://pypi.org/simple, https://www.piwheels.org/simple Requirement already satisfied: evdev in /usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages (1.6.0)

I went through all the steps again and noticed that it warns me when installing the requirements! If I install it as shown: pytest-pythonpath 0.7.4 has requirement pytest<7,>=2.5.2, but you'll have pytest 7.1.3 which is incompatible. If I install it with pytest==2.5.2: pytest-cov 3.0.0 has requirement pytest>=4.6, but you'll have pytest 2.5.2 which is incompatible. If I install it with pytest==5: No warning but still the same error in the result.

@tinoton2022 could you use pip3 freeze > requirements123.txt and post the result here?

Hi. After installing evdev via python3 -m pip install evdev and sudo python3 -m pip install evdev,

then running pi@raspberrypi:~/RPi-Jukebox-RFID/scripts $ python3 RegisterDevice.py Choose the reader from list 0 Sycreader RFID Technology Co., Ltd SYC ID&IC USB Reader Device Number: 0

I received the following output:

Exception ignored in: <function BaseEventLoop.del at 0x761855d0> Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.7/asyncio/base_events.py", line 622, in del warnings.warn(f"unclosed event loop {self!r}", ResourceWarning, File "/usr/lib/python3.7/asyncio/base_events.py", line 390, in repr f'<{self.class.name} running={self.is_running()} ' File "/usr/lib/python3.7/asyncio/base_events.py", line 1794, in get_debug return self._debug AttributeError: '_UnixSelectorEventLoop' object has no attribute '_debug'

Any ideas?

Still have the same error but haven't had time to look closer lately. Thanks for the tip, though. At least I'm not the only one with this problem. If you open a new issue, feel free to refer to this ticket. Maybe then we'll finally get help.

I started off from scratch with a new SD-Card. This time I used the one-line installer script for the developer-version. I didn't had to install evdev by myself, all was already done by the script. However I still got the error mentioned above.

Funny enough, the RFID-Card reader worked well in Phoniebox... didn't expect that.

Therefore, I found a solution, even if it doesn't look nice during the installation...

Hello,

i have the same errors. With the steps described here I got it working so far. But when I change the settings of General RFID player control to Placing the card starts player, removal stops it then it seems to work for about one or two seconds. After that the playback pause.

Same for me, thanks for the tipp with the developer-version!

problem solved

markusf1895 avatar Dec 16 '22 20:12 markusf1895

The script where the issue arises ~/RPi-Jukebox-RFID/scripts/RegisterDevice.py asks the user for the correct device and then writes the name of that device into a file called deviceName.txt.

After getting the same issue as the original poster oof this issue, I looked into that file and the device name was there. Whatever is going wrong in python (looks like there is something wrong in the destructor of BaseEventLoop: BaseEventLoop.__del__) it does not break the functionality that this script should have. The reader also works after installation through "stable".

We could hunt the cause for this, but it seems solved in the development branch already. So that seems an unnecessary effort. Alternatively we could catch this exception and in the exception handling we do check if there is the correct string in deviceName.txt. If the name is correct then the exception handling is done and the users are not bothered with this.

Doesn't work. It is not caught as an AttributeError.
