Suddenly can't connect to Polyglot on Ras Pi


Recommended Posts

Posted

I've had Polyglot V2 working fine on a Rasp Pi for a few years now.  Decided to update to the latest version of Polyglot last night and after the update, suddenly when I'd try to log into Polyglot in Chrome, I would get a "This site can't be reached, <IP address> refused to connect".

I am using HTTPS and it is the same address I've always used for the PI (set by reservation in my router).

Today I tried wiping the Pi and reloading Raspian and Polyglot V2 and I still get the error.

Anybody got any suggestions as to what might be causing this?  Is this a Windows Firewall issue?  If so, I'm not sure how to correct that and am curious why it never happened before.

I appreciate any help you might be able to give.

Thanks,

Brian

I would try using http (no s) and/or a different browser. Doubtful it is firewall, but you could turn off briefly to test.

Thanks for the reply.

I tried HTTP (no S) as well as different browsers just to see.  All have the same response (refused to connect).  I've even tried accessing from another computer, same thing.

I can SSH into the Ras Pi using Putty, so the IP address is correct and the connection is there, just can access Polyglot on port 3000.

Here is what I get when I check to see if it is running:

 

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo systemctl status polyglot-v2.service
● polyglot-v2.service - polyglot-v2
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/polyglot-v2.service; enabled; vendor pres
   Active: active (running) since Thu 2022-02-03 00:08:01 GMT; 7ms ago
 Main PID: 30304 (polyglot-v2-lin)
    Tasks: 1 (limit: 3720)
   CGroup: /system.slice/polyglot-v2.service
           └─30304 /home/pi/polyglot/polyglot-v2-linux-armv7

 

Seems to show it is running, but I'm wondering about the running for only 7 ms?  Is that normal?

However, when I try to get the log file, I get a Permission denied error

 

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ~/.polyglot/log/debug.log
-bash: /home/pi/.polyglot/log/debug.log: Permission denied

 

Does this lend anything to the potential reason why I can't access Polyglot?

If you run the command multiple times and it's always 7ms, then I suspect that it runs for 7 ms crashes and then restarts only to crash again.

I saw this on the github page:

# Watch the logs real-time
tail -f ~/.polyglot/log/debug.log

Did you try that?

My expertise is limited here so others may have to jump in to help you with this issue.

Alright, so I tried again and did a manual install and when it came time to launch Polyglot, I did so with debug logging turned on.  Here are the results.  Looks like Polyglot is shutting down because of an SSL CTX use certificate key too small error.

How do I go about fixing that?

I'm glad you got it running.  I don't know if you follow the Polyglot developments on this forum but in case you don't just a heads up that future development of Polyglot and the Node Servers is rapidly moving to V3.  V3 will not run on a RPi, you will need a Polisy to run it.  V3 importantly will provide a mechanism to compensate the developers for their hard work that we have all been enjoying for years free of charge.
