rp_st
10/26/2022, 2:45 PMhey @beemoe5 which OS are you running on the raspberry pi?
b
beemoe5
10/26/2022, 2:47 PMShould be raspbian
r
rp_st
10/26/2022, 2:47 PMmaybe try installing docker in it and using our docker image?
b
beemoe5
10/26/2022, 2:48 PMI would rather not use docker because I don't know how to use docker
r
rp_st
10/26/2022, 2:49 PMi see. Im not sure our core would work without docker on this OS
rp_st
10/26/2022, 2:49 PMso then you can use our managed service where we host a core for you
b
beemoe5
10/26/2022, 2:50 PMI think its just the java binary that won't work
beemoe5
10/26/2022, 2:50 PMMaybe if I use a different one it might work
r
rp_st
10/26/2022, 2:51 PMdifferent what though?
b
beemoe5
10/26/2022, 2:51 PMJava binary
r
rp_st
10/26/2022, 2:51 PMi don't understand
b
beemoe5
10/26/2022, 2:52 PMI tried running the Java binary that's with the core unzipped folder
beemoe5
10/26/2022, 3:04 PMIt gave an error but not from java itself: https://mkyong.com/java/bash-usr-bin-java-cannot-execute-binary-file-exec-format-error/
beemoe5
10/26/2022, 3:05 PM(Sorry for taking long on that, was trying to find the exact error on mobile)
r
rp_st
10/26/2022, 3:05 PMhmm. I see. So it seems that the JRE we bundle in is not built for that OS
b
beemoe5
10/26/2022, 3:05 PMAnyway thats what I found when I looked up the error
beemoe5
10/26/2022, 3:05 PMYep
r
rp_st
10/26/2022, 3:05 PMmaybe you can replace the JRE we have in the installation folder with one that works on your OS
b
beemoe5
10/26/2022, 3:06 PMYea I'll try that later
beemoe5
10/26/2022, 3:06 PMIf this theory is correct then you can easily add support for the OS, too
r
rp_st
10/26/2022, 3:07 PMyea true. But tbh, it's super niche and we probably won't be doing it anytime soon anyway
b
beemoe5
10/26/2022, 3:07 PMThats fair
beemoe5
10/27/2022, 12:44 AMwhat version of java is it supposed to be?
beemoe5
10/27/2022, 2:35 AMokay so i think it is the java being incompatible with my raspberry pi, side note i think i broke supertokens from messing with it lol
r
rp_st
10/27/2022, 5:05 AM> what version of java is it supposed to be?
OpenJDK 15.0.1
b
beemoe5
10/27/2022, 5:08 AMokay
beemoe5
10/27/2022, 5:12 AMfor now, do you think a good "bandaid" for this problem could be to host on my (windows 10) computer?
r
rp_st
10/27/2022, 5:12 AMyea. that would work for sure
b
beemoe5
10/27/2022, 5:13 AMokay nice
beemoe5
10/27/2022, 5:15 AMim thinking later i fork the core's repository for a better way to modify the installation to work on the pi
beemoe5
10/27/2022, 7:31 AMi didnt fork, but after i unzipped the zip i replaced the /jre directory with a copy of a java 17 jre directory
beemoe5
10/27/2022, 7:32 AMand i havent configured and ran the core yet, but this is the furthest i have gotten so far
beemoe5
10/27/2022, 7:33 AMi will try starting the core in a bit, and i have high hopes it will work
r
rp_st
10/27/2022, 7:40 AMsounds good.
b
beemoe5
10/27/2022, 9:29 AMi am able to run the core
r
rp_st
10/27/2022, 9:31 AMawesome!
b
beemoe5
10/27/2022, 9:33 AMyep!
