URIs in the config files should be validated as URIs

[mattiapsu]

Describe the bug
I copy a test image to the aiinput folder, but it appears that processing is not happening.

Installation details

• Unraid 6.8.3 Docker setup; installed by directions/documentation using the bridge and port forward presented in Issue Document how to get node-deepstackai-trigger working on Unraid #349

Additional context
I had followed some other guides to install deepstack including from command line in Unraid. I deleted those containers and images by Unraid GUI prior to using the method above.

In order to test the system I am just copying an image into the aiinput folder and monitoring the logs for action. I'm using a cat picture posted in example setup. I have Blue Iris setup but have not automated the picture load.

If I go to my deepstack URL:port, it says deepstack is activated.

[neilenns]

Please include your docker-compose.yaml, settings.json and triggers.json file.

[mattiapsu]

I uploaded settings.json and triggers.json as .log in previous because git is saying it doesn't support .json upload, and I've also copied the code for both below. I didn't use the docker-compose.yaml, but used Unraid 'add container' with the elements defined below.

Appreciate your thoughts, thanks

Unraid container setup

[neilenns]

This is almost certainly a mount/path problem with unraid. Can you connect directly to the trigger container with a console and do an ls /aiinput and see if the folder even exists? Are there files in it?

Another thing to do is put a file in the mount folder then start up the container. It will output log messages telling you how many files it finds in the mount location that are waiting to be processed.

[mattiapsu]

Running the command shows all the "cat" files in the current directory. Restarting the container doesn't change the log from what is shared above.

[neilenns]

There should be a lot more log output than what you pasted in, e.g. there's no log message showing the trigger.json file loaded (which would explain why no triggers are firing). Here's example of what it should look like:

Try doing an ls /config to make sure the triggers.json is there and visible.

[mattiapsu]

shows up there too... you mentioned .conf first... is there is a difference here? I did try a file extension change a while back to see what effect that would have. But it reacted the same.

it would seem it's getting stuck at local storage. Crap, I'm on kid duty, have to come back to this later. Thanks for your help.

[neilenns]

Nah I just typo'ed and corrected myself. There should be a ton more logs showing up, at the very least failure messages saying it can't read/find that file.

I'm not sure what else to suggest unfortunately. I don't have access to unraid/have never used it.

[mattiapsu]

Last question before I throw in the towel for now... the next step in the log is "creating local storage folders." I'm looking into the read/write permissions in the root appdata/deepstack-trigger folder. The /config path is read-write to the subfolder, but I'm not so sure that the root for the container is write-able. Can you tell me more about that step? Does it have a container path associated with it? What does it create?

[neilenns]

It attempts to create three folders in /node-deepstackai-trigger in the container. Do you actually see this message in your logs?

2020-11-06T08:59:24-08:00 [Local storage] Creating local storage folders in /node-deepstackai-trigger.

[neilenns]

@mattiapsu Can you update your unraid setup to point to the issue396 tagged docker image instead of latest and then try again?

I added some additional error handling and logging to the local storage folder creation step. It might be that something is going wrong there and it's just killing the whole system. If so the changes I made will at least spit out the error.

[mattiapsu]

I updated my docker image to danecreekphotography/node-deepstackai-trigger:issue396

Unfortunately, the log is still halting at the same place, right after loading settings.json

This could totally be me as I know enough to be dangerous, but by no means can do this stuff without help from people like you. I'm happy to keep trying stuff to get you more info. Also, fine if it's not worth it for you.

[neilenns]

I have an idea!

Can you try disabling MQTT? Just set enabled to false in your settings.json.

[neilenns]

And if that fixes it, try enabling it again and changing the uri to http://10.0.0.1:1883.
