Balena Dash Project Won't Display

Product support
1

I’m going through this tutorial to set up a digital picture frame, and I feel like I’ve gone through all the steps correctly, but my Raspberry Pi will only display the Balena logo and nothing else. I’m using a Raspberry Pi Zero W and Win 10 if that helps, and I’m just using the standard Command Prompt there.

I’ve already set up the device and connected it to my project, which it connects to just fine. It boots up and displays the Balena logo as expected and it connected to my WiFi just fine. I downloaded the Balena CLI tools so I could log in and push updates to the project, and that seems to work as well. I downloaded the most recent Balena Dash file from here, extracted it to a folder, navigated to that folder in Command Prompt, and used "balena push " to push that build to my project. It seems to have pushed to it just fine, but after I set up the “WPE_URL” environment variable to the Google home page, nothing happened. All I see is the Balena logo still, nothing has changed. I have no idea what I’ve done wrong, but I’ve gone over the instructions a dozen times and I can’t seem to find anything that I’ve done wrong. I set up the device with Balena, I downloaded the Balena Dash project and pushed it to my Raspberry Pi successfully, so why doesn’t it seem to be displaying the “WPE_URL” environment variable I set up?

Does anyone have any ideas on what I might’ve done wrong? Would it be because I’m using a Raspberry Pi Zero W? Everything I’ve read seems to imply a Zero W should still work with this project. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as it’s a gift for this weekend and I’d like to get it fixed before then.

@DecreeB
looks like you are not using the right hardware. The guide you are following asks for a Raspberry Pi 3B and it seems that the Pi Zero W does not dot the job.

hello

i have the same problems with Raspberry 3b+ , i have just balenaos logo in hdmi out
i set GALLERY_URL to USBDRIVE without success
i set WPE_URL without success

what is the problem?

thanks

Hi @baudetd welcome to the forums

Have you restarted the app after WPE_URL or GALLERY_URL were set? Also, can you please share the output of dmesg?

Best regards

hi

where is dmesg ?

thanks

Hi @baudetd, you could access to dmesg logs when you SSH into the Host OS of your device. You might find this blog post helpful to troubleshoot your device and retrieve such system logs: https://www.balena.io/blog/top-6-tips-for-troubleshooting-your-host-os-with-resin-io/

Let us know what you see in the logs. Also for WPE_URL, please make sure that your device could access to this URL.

this is dmesg hostos

Thanks for this information Denis. In this log, I do not see any USB drive being detected or mounted. Are you sure the USB drive is formatted and contains pictures?

Being that you are not receiving any output from WPE_URL either, I would recommend you simply try again, with a fresh download or ‘git clone’ of the project, and once again push it with the balena CLI, as outlined in the documentation.

15

it is normal that you do not see the key because I took the log without the key because my problem also remains on the wpe

I tested with an rpi3b + in 64 bit
32bit
with an rpi4

with balena-wpe-master …

with another SD card

reboot …

nothing

16

test with http://www.google.fr

Hi @baudetd

I just want to confirm whether you have set the value of the RESIN_HOST_CONFIG_gpu_mem variable to a value of at least 128mb or more? The project recommends 396.

Kind regards
Alida

26

Hello again,

We’re just checking in to see if the suggestion to up the GPU memory worked for you? If not, we’d obviously like to try and help you solve the issues you’re seeing.

Best regards,

Heds

hello

i change “Define device GPU memory in megabytes.” to 396

no change , it does not work …

Hi @baudetd

One of our hardware hackers has just pointed out that balenaDash only works on Raspberry Pi 3 / 3b+, definitely on 32-bit, and possibly on 64-bit (but he’d need to test the latter first to confirm). It does not work on Raspberry Pi 4.

Can you please confirm whether you have tested the RESIN_HOST_CONFIG_gpu_mem = 396 setting on a RPi 3/3b+ 32-bit?

Thank you
Alida

34

ok ma last test is with rpi4

I will repeat a test with an rpi 3

36

yes its’ good for WPE
but these errors for USBDRRIVE

Glad to hear you got the WPE working. I’m checking with the balena-dash repo maintainer to check the syntax of the photos/udev/ files for possible errors.

41

Hey!

I was testing so many things on my pi 4 and I just read your comment about it not working on 4 yet, will that change in the future? Because we had everything working on a test run for pi 3 and then we ordered a lot of pi 4 to install dashboards that we can’t set up balenadash on yet. Thanks!

44

Hi Sam, I’m one of dash project mantainers, sorry for the delay on the response. It’s been a busy week.

Regarding running the project on the Pi 4, currently the issue is that the balena-wpe project can’t run on Pi4 because the graphics drivers changed and the project needs to be recompiled against the new ones. Unfortunately this is not a simple task, we do plan on tackling this though we don’t have a set date for it yet. You can track the progress on this GitHub issue.

Regarding the photos container issue you reported, indeed I found a problem with the image Dockerfile. I think i fixed it already but at the moment can’t test it. I pushed the fix to this branch: https://github.com/balenalabs/balena-dash/tree/fix-photos-container
If you can test it and let me know that would be great, I’ll be testing it myself regardless early next week and report back with the result.

Have a great weekend! Cheers.

Hello

thank you ,
i tested the new code but there is still an error.

should the images be inserted at the root of the key? doesn’t it create a specific directory?
