Yocto Course

[robertferanec]

I am testing it again. What Ubuntu did you download? This one? http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/relea...ktop-amd64.iso

[rutrilla]

Yes, I did everything with that image, the ubuntu-14.04.4-desktop-amd64.iso.

However, I have noticed that after running the "sudo apt-get upgrade" command indicated in "How to prepare a Host machine for YOCTO", the version is upgraded to 14.04.6 (according to the command: "lsb_release -d").

Thanks in advance for your help!

So, the problem with the python installation above is, that there is no openssl. I had to do this:

Install openssl:

$ wget http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.2e.tar.gz
$ tar -xvzf openssl-1.0.2e.tar.gz
$ cd openssl-1.0.2e.tar.gz
$ sudo ./config --prefix=/usr/local/openssl --openssldir=/usr/local/openssl
$ sudo make
$ sudo make install

Then install the python:
$ wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3....thon-3.6.3.tgz
$ tar -xvf Python-3.6.3.tgz
$ cd Python-3.6.3

Edit config, open
$nano Modules/Setup.dist

Search for "ssl" and uncomment and update:

_socket socketmodule.c

# Socket module helper for SSL support; you must comment out the other
# socket line above, and possibly edit the SSL variable:

SSL=/usr/local/openssl
_ssl _ssl.c \
-DUSE_SSL -I$(SSL)/include -I$(SSL)/include/openssl \
-L$(SSL)/lib -lssl -lcrypto

Then, save the file and run:

$ sudo ./configure
$ sudo make
$ sudo make install

To test python and ssl run python3 and write there import ssl, it should look like this:
[email protected]:~/fsl-community-bsp/Python-3.6.3$ python3
Python 3.6.3 (default, Jan 20 2022, 23:45:09)
[GCC 4.8.4] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import ssl
>>>
[email protected]:~/fsl-community-bsp/Python-3.6.3$

Then go back to to fsl-community-bsp directory and try again:
repo init -u https://github.com/Freescale/fsl-community-bsp-platform -b jethro

I hope this helps. Midnight, time to go to bed ....

Well, I reinstalled Ubuntu and follow all the instructions step-by-step.

I got the following problem with "$ wget http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.2e.tar.gz", but I downloaded the file from Firefox as a workaround.



Then, I was able to properly install openssl and python3.6, but I still have problems with the repo init command.



I've tried the rest of your instructions and some others I've found googling the error (export PYTHONHTTPSVERIFY=0 and others), but no lucky...

After you have python working, try to re-run all these, that is what I did and it worked:

Disable certificates
export GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY=1

If you keep having problems with certificates:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates
sudo update-ca-certificates

Update curl
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list

Into sources.list insert
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security main
deb http://cz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial main universe

and then run
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install curl

PS: Here is a different way to go around the python problem (I have not tested it yet, but this should also work):
export GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY=1
cd ~
mkdir ~/bin
git clone https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo
cd git-repo
git checkout 27da4ddeb9159573e0207f71e4d9b3ae286b5275
cp repo ../bin
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
PATH=${PATH}:~/bin

Hi Robert,

The first part doesn't work for me. I get the same error. However, with the second workaround it seems that I have already been able to execute the "repo init" and "repo sync" commands.

Unfortunately, today I can no longer continue with the course. I will keep you informed of my progress in the coming days.

Thanks for your help!

rutrilla fantastic! Please keep me posted.
Clement please let me know if it helped to you too. Thank you.
