[Kodi 18] Some python2 error in the log, possibly about the repo

[pitsi]

Expected Behavior

Hmmm... There should not be such an error in the log.

Current Behavior

The error below is shown in the log. However, elementum seems to work fine.

Possible Solution

No idea.

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

1. Install elementum on a kodi 18 installation.
2. Restart kodi for elementum to load.
3. Notice the following in the log.

Context

If it helps, since libreelec 9 is eol since a few years ago and has no support, I manually update it's certificates in order to keep some addons running properly. However, the error comes up even with the stock certificates.

Your Environment

• Version used: 0.1.106
• Environment name and version: kodi 18.9 on libreelec 9.2.6 x64
• Operating System and version: Libreelec 6.2.6 x64
• Link to Kodi debug log: (log is above)

@pitsi not sure that this is elementum issue, it might be just a coincidence that you see elementum Golang notice message during generic Python error messages. There should be at least elementum python error messages.
Anyway, full log is needed, since this "part of log" is not useful at all.

[pitsi]

Please allow a few days to clean up my installation from other addons and I will post the full log. Thank you :)

[pitsi]

There you go. The error is on lines 623 to 629
kodi.log

[antonsoroko]

@pitsi looks like you forgot to enable debug both in kodi and elementum :-(
there was a guide in template - http://elementum.surge.sh/contribute/log/

(disable debug after creating log to save some performance and disk space)

[pitsi]

There you go.
kodi.log

Kodi's debug mode was enabled with --debug flag and I set elementum to debug more via settings > advanced > log > log level > debug.

[antonsoroko]

this is what i see in log

@pitsi can you please open in your browser this address http://IP_OF_Libreelec:65223/addons.xml
or from libreelec terminal: curl http://127.0.0.1:65223/addons.xml
and then check

1. that it gives you correct XML file (upload its content here)
2. if in kodi.log you see the same error as before

[pitsi]

When I run it either locally or remotely, it gives me this, which seems to be the structure of the elementum repo.
addons.txt

Now if you excuse me for today, I have to go rest :)

[pitsi]

I missunderstood the second part of the question, sorry.
When runninng curl on that xml file (from my system) all I get is this
2024-12-22 07:30:15.371 T:140460060309248 DEBUG: [repository.elementumorg] "GET /addons.xml HTTP/1.1" 200 -

The problem is that I get no newer message in the log despite how many times I run curl, either locally or remotely, so teh above may be... just another elementum message in the log.

[antonsoroko]

@pitsi does this error somehow affects work of elementumorg repository? e.g. can you open the repository and install addons from it? (you can safely uninstall and reinstall "elementum context helper", for example)

[pitsi]

Truth be told, I have not noticed it, because I do get the updates like usual. But I just tried what you suggested and it works as it should.

Disabling elementum executable from autostarting with kodi makes the error go away, obviously.

[antonsoroko]

@pitsi

Disabling elementum executable from autostarting with kodi makes the error go away, obviously.

On start elementum run "update all repos" internal kodi's command. Maybe there is some "race condition".

Can you please set "start delay" in elementum settings to 5 seconds? And see if you still see the error.

[pitsi]

I gave it the full 180 seconds of delay, it did do it as you can see here

Because I did not mention it earlier, I sometimes hear kodi's error sound on shutdown, but it does not stay open for long so as to show an error message and let me know why it happened. Could that be related to elementum?

[antonsoroko]

@pitsi

but it does not stay open for long so as to show an error message and let me know why it happened.

You can take a look into kodi.log.old file , it will have log from previous Kodi run.

[antonsoroko]

but in the end nothing changed

I do not know why this is happening on your system. It might be because of kodi 18 or old certificates or something else. Maybe @elgatito can say more.

Elementum repository is dynamic add-on that gets data from GitHub API , maybe those requests to GitHub API are failing for some reason. But hard to tell without a easy way to reproduce the issue locally.

As I understands the repo works for you, so it is not a blocker bug , but more like "inconvenient" bug.

[pitsi]

I know about kodi.old.log (as well as about the "dynamic nature" of the elementum repository). The problem is that either it happens and I forget to check it the next time I boot, or I have to restart kodi while keeping le running. In both cases. the file gets replaced by a new one, which is useless.

As for the certificates, I know that the system will not get any further updates, so I update the certificates by hand, the way that is described here.
https://wiki.libreelec.tv/configuration/ssl-tls-certificates

Right now, my cecert.pem file is the one from November 26th, i.e. the latest one.

# cat .config/cacert.pem | head -5
##
## Bundle of CA Root Certificates
##
## Certificate data from Mozilla as of: Tue Nov 26 13:58:25 2024 GMT
##

But all that may be wrong, because I have no way to know if the system did parse that file or is still using its original one from 2020

# cat /etc/ssl/cacert.pem.system | head -5
##
## Bundle of CA Root Certificates
##
## Certificate data from Mozilla as of: Sun May 31 07:36:09 2020 GMT
##

[pitsi]

About this last bit. I totally missed the part of the instructions which says that the new file is appended to the old one. The new file is indeed appended and the resulted one contains both the old and the new one.

# cat /etc/ssl/cacert.pem | grep "Certificate data"
## Certificate data from Mozilla as of: Sun May 31 07:36:09 2020 GMT
## Certificate data from Mozilla as of: Tue Nov 26 13:58:25 2024 GMT

[antonsoroko]

i meant that the only way to see what is really happening is to add some debug code to https://github.com/ElementumOrg/repository.elementumorg/tree/master
i tried to read that code but i do not really see where to add debug to make it useful.

maybe @i96751414 can say something about this, since https://github.com/ElementumOrg/repository.elementumorg is just a fork of https://github.com/i96751414/repository.github
