@Alex-Kushleyev Good afternoon,

I'm just following up with you to see if there an update with the process of enabling MAVSDK with the VOXL2.

I did some research on my end and am getting conflicting information on what is necessary for the older VOXL and the VOXL2.

In the section relating to VOXL2: https://docs.modalai.com/docker-on-voxl/#download--push-a-docker-image-to-voxl, voxl-configure-docker-support.sh is not recommended to be ran, but for the README from the link on MAVSDK on VOXL2, I'm told to run said command.

I am aware the link above is in reference to Ubuntu, but the command is shared between VOXL and VOXL2 documentation.

Also the location /data/docker/mavsdk does not exist that is referenced in the documentation, but /data directory does.

Could you or someone else follow up with me on which parts of the documentation is for VOXL or VOXL2 so that I can pull down the docker image for MAVSDK. If just enabling the parameters and running the services for voxl-vision-hub and voxl-mavlink-server is all or going through the normal Docker install on VOXL2, can you share that.

Thank you,
Alexander

@Alexander-Saunders VOXL has Docker pre-installed but you need to run voxl-configure-docker-support.sh in order to enable it. VOXL 2 does not have Docker pre-installed, but since it is a Debian-based platform you can just install Docker the standard way. For VOXL 2 you do not use voxl-configure-docker-support.sh.

[Eric Katzfey]

@Alexander-Saunders You should try building the Docker container instead of downloading it from the repo since that seems to not be functional at the moment (Looking into it).

@Eric-Katzfey Just to make sure I'm not misunderstanding you, you want me to the instructions below that is coming from: https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-docker-images/voxl-docker-mavsdk-python

[Eric Katzfey]

@Alexander-Saunders Yes

[Alexander Saunders]

@Eric-Katzfey Good morning Eric,

So I tried building the image for both voxl-docker-mavsdk & voxl-docker-mavsdk-python. I run into the same issue with both, adb: command not found. Additionally, with voxl-docker-mavsdk-python the common file is not found.

the ./build-image.sh was run on both directories in both SSH and ADB shell.

I am at a standstill with testing until I can get the docker image built. Any additional documentation is greatly appreciated!

Respectfully,
Alexander

[Eric Katzfey]

@Alexander-Saunders You run build-image.sh on your host computer, not on the voxl

[Alexander Saunders]

@Eric-Katzfey Hey Eric, I'm running the ./build-image.sh on a laptop and am running into this error.

[Alexander Saunders]

@Eric-Katzfey

[Eric Katzfey]

@Alexander-Saunders Oh, the repo probably has the name master changed to main. Can you change the Dockerfile to try to use main instead of master and see if that works?

[Alexander Saunders]

@Eric-Katzfey No luck with that. Also the branch is a master.

[Eric Katzfey]

@Alexander-Saunders But that's a different problem. Before it was the checkout of master. This is something else.

[Eric Katzfey]

@Alexander-Saunders I'll try it and see what happens.

[Eric Katzfey]

@Alexander-Saunders Okay, yes, I see the same error. Sorry about that. Let me see if I can figure out what is going wrong.

[Eric Katzfey]

@Alexander-Saunders Can you try with the origin/ascend/docker branch of voxl-docker-mavsdk-python instead? Seems like that's where the latest updates have happened and haven't been merged back into master yet.

[Alexander Saunders]

@Eric-Katzfey I went ahead and tried the voxl-docker-mavsdk repo also and get the same issue. I tried docker pull docker.io/arm64v8/ubuntu:bionic and giving the user permissions for the file/folder.

What is stumping me is the registry-1.docker.io. I can ping it and do a DNS lookup just fine. Also pinging google is fine. But the error is persisting in relation to it.

I will try the other branches for voxl-docker-mavsdk andvoxl-docker-mavsdk-python. Will that require changing main to the branch name for the DockerFile?

[Alexander Saunders]

@Eric-Katzfey This is from the ascend branch

[Eric Katzfey]

@Alexander-Saunders Not sure why that is happening. That does not happen when I try it. I'm guessing that you have a networking issue of some sort or perhaps all this messing with Docker on the target has somehow corrupted it and it needs to be reinstalled.
