Topic: Luci install fails on latest Ar71xx trunk

The content of this topic has been archived on 1 Apr 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

1st i looked around and googled till my eyes hurt.

I installed the latest build from here http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/ … xx-generic   24-Oct-2011 04:41

then i tried the opkg update followed by opkg install luci

that resulted with the below error


* opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package luci.


can anyone shed some insight on the above?

thanks

There was an error in the makefile caused by removal of ffwizard, probably the reason why snapshots failed to build it. It got fixed yesterday so should be up again today.

Well, this is a dupe of https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=32572, but the problem still exists, no luci packages on lastest trunk. Btw, i´m willing to help build a better starter tutorial to openwrt, its not simple at all for newcomers to understand how things work smile

tomorrow, i install luci on the latest trunk, do this:
modify /etc/opkg.conf to add backfire 10.03.1-rc5 packages directory for your hardware

cat >/etc/opkg.conf

src/gz packages http://downloads.openwrt.org/backfire/10.03.1-rc5/your hardware/packages
dest root /
dest ram /tmp
lists_dir ext /var/opkg-lists
option overlay_root /overlay

then instalt this packages:

opkg update

opkg --force-reinstall install uci
opkg --force-reinstall install lua
opkg --force-reinstall install liblua
opkg --force-reinstall install libuci
opkg --force-reinstall install luci

mv /etc/config/luci-opkg /etc/config/luci

/etc/init.d/uhttpd enable

reboot

it`s all, for me luci works!
