WilloBuild WilloBuild OpenViX 6.7 Series

Evening, have tried to download the application via putty but dont seem to be getting much luck on grabbing the files from willowbuild.net (See attached file)

wget --no-check-certificate -O install_vix.sh http://www.willobuild.net/files/scripts/install_vix.sh && bash install_vix.sh

Can you post the full screenshot of putty to see if anything is wrong. It should show errors if it has issues downloading or running the script.

Seems like it was a network issue, i have now hit another issue where "Cannot write to ‘latestvix.zip’ (Function not implemented)". see image below of screens

Installed willowbuild now, had to tweak the original walk-through see a few things that need to be changed in there to help newcomers setup there systems. So all works fine and seems sleek and easy to use. Seeing an issue with the following -MENU > SETUP > TUNERS & SCANNING > AUTOBOUQUETSMAKER > PROVIDERS i currently get a blank screen no options to change. This might be because i disabled the dish option to scan for channels. What plugins can i use to get IPTV running on this?

WILLOBUILD IS A CUSTOM OPENVIX BUILD


WILLOBUILD IS FLASHED DIRECTLY VIA PUTTY.
THERE IS NO NEED FOR USB FLASHING.
IT WILL ALWAYS FLASH THE LATEST IMAGE AND UPDATES CAN BE DONE VIA SOFTWARE UPDATE.
THIS SHOULD WORK ON ANY OPENVIX SUPPORTED RECEIVER.
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HELP ME WITH SERVER HOSTING COSTS :smiley: View attachment 86829

TO INSTALL COPY THIS CODE AND RIGHT CLICK IN PUTTY TO PASTE AND THEN PRESS ENTER.
Code: 
wget --no-check-certificate -O install_vix.sh http://www.willobuild.net/files/scripts/install_vix.sh && bash install_vix.sh

FULL INSTRUCTIONS

VIX 6.7 - YOU MUST RUN THE WILLOBUILD UPDATER PLUGIN AFTER RESTORING YOUR OWN SETTINGS BACKUP

IF YOUR RECEIVER CRASHES OR GETS STUCK ON BOOT, CONNECT TO THE RECEIVER WITH PUTTY AND FLASH THE BELOW RECOVERY SCRIPT
Code: 
wget --no-check-certificate -O recovery.sh http://www.willobuild.net/files/scripts/recovery.sh && bash recovery.sh

You are correct. ABM will only offer providers for which you have configured tuners.

You can use "bouquet maker xtreme" or "xstreamity" for IPTV. They could be installed already. You can also try dimitarcc IPTV plugin.

Thanks, so i have looked into this but cant see these plugins so guessing these did dont come with the OS install for willowbuild. Where in the download plugins category's will i find "bouquet maker xtreme" or "xstreamity"? thanks I had knowledge of both Wooshbuild Infinity & Grogbuild FreeRange but as you know they are no longer supported
 
Menu, plugins, green (download), extensions

I am not a "build" user, someone will confirm if they are installed as part of the willow build customisation process. You can check if they are already installed by:

Willowbuild v6.7 for Zgemma H7C - Have seen this issue several times now box becomes unresponsive once powered down and powered back up. Box freezes at 49%. Only way to gain access is to flash openvix back on it and start all over again as your unable to telnet to box at this level. I thought this was just a glitch but its happened each time i go to reboot it.

I have a sandisk 32GB USB mounted using OpenVix latest build before i run the willowbuild installation to the correct file path /media/hdd AND FORMATTED AS ext4 R/W

You are better off starting it by command line. This will show the issue. The upload the output here. If a plain ViX image does not stall, then it is one of the customisation files willow uses. Use following commands with putty or any other terminal client.

init 4
enigma2

Tested the following -

VIX image - can reboot, shutdown, use white button to power down without a clean shutdown VIX image has no issues.

If i reboot willow, weather that be restart, use of white power button on back to power it down (image crashes and on startup box freezes at 49%).

Tried your command -
init 4 && enigma2 &> /media/hdd/Enigma2_debug_$(date +%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S).log
Box crashed (Flashing OpenVix again, will grab log once i can get back on Zgemma box, hopefully the log worked)
 
Enigma2 is just an application. There is a Linux OS running in the background.

The commands I gave are to run Enigma2 in console mode. You will see where it stalls during the startup process and hopefully allow Willow to fix it.

The commands you gave is better than the one I mentioned, but you don't see the output on-screen. You should be able to FTP to your HDD and read/upload the file. You may need to setup a password by command line to allow you to FTP.
