INSTALL_RETROPIE_ON_OSMC_RC.sh does not download retropie.sh & retropie_watchdog.sh

Good day,

I believe that the two essential files needed to disable (and re-enable) OSMC/Kodi does not get downloaded in the script, which judging from the forum thread, a lot of people are having trouble figuring out issues with starting/stopping emulationstation/RetroPie.

Hi. They should get downloaded. They didn't change and the URLs also didn't change. So it should work.

The problems in the forum are mostly solved I belive. Except for the tvservice problem. Didn't find the time to look into it.

Hey man,

This is the 3rd sd card that I've tried downloading and installing INSTALL_RETROPIE_ON_OSMC_RC.sh script via wget, and I can confirm, at least in my experience, that those two files didn't get downloaded. All three times I have to redownload the file from here, or do a sudo nano filename.sh & chmod +x filename.sh on those two files.

I'm not exactly sure, but I think using git clone instead of using wget in your instructions will get everything downloaded.

I'll have to confirm that with a fresh install. Unfortunately I will not have the time this weekend. Hope to be able to check it soon.

No worries. I tried all three on RPi 1 Model B.

Cheers and thanks for the great work!

If you use a RPi1, it could be, that normal raspbian does not have the certificates installed to download from github https pages. OSMC on RPi2 seems to allow that just fine. I never tried the installation on an RPi 1 myself, that's why I said, that it MIGHT work, but I am not sure in my first post.

Could you try to install ca-certificates on your Pi before using the script and report if it works then? If so, I will include that into the script.

Try sudo apt-get install ca-certificates

mcobit avatar Apr 30 '15 14:04 mcobit

"ca-certificates is already the newest version."

Anything else that I should try?

Can you try to edit the script and add the --no-check-certificate parameter to the wget commands?

Please report if it works then and I will add it.

I tried to fix stuff. Please try again and confirm, that it works now.
