OP on Raspberry Pi ?

Added by Marcel Hodan over 10 years ago

Hey fellows,

i’m trying to install OP on my Raspberry PI for performance tests. I’d like to know if it’s possible to run OP on a RPi.
But within the installation I always get kicked out at “4. Install Openproject” - “bundle install”. Because the “gem install libv8 -v ‘3.11.8.17’”
command could not finish. (Processor Architecture is not suitable “#error Target architecture ia32 is only supported on ia32 host”

Is there another library I could use to install the bundle?
Or does anyone know a workaround for that problem?

I’m looking forward to hearing from you :)

Hi Marcel,

the current libv8 build isn’t setup for ARM and libv8 is a dependency of therubyracer. therubyracer is only needed for Precompile assets. Now you have 2 options

1. Precompile assets on a different machine where you can install libv8 and move the stuff to your RasPI
2. Install node.js instead of therubyracer

So I could setup OP in another environment and copy the configured folder?
(then I have to adjust db param for sure)

Hello Marcel,

yes you can ;)

In your case it should work if you just copy the ‘public/assets’ folder after you run bundle exec rake assets:precompile on the other machine. If you try this you have to adapt the bundle install run on the RasPI like this:

bundle install --without rmagick development test therubyracer

Copying the whole folder might work too but there is a lot to consider and you should first try to copy only the ‘public/assets’ folder.

After spending way too much time on various permutations of software versions & tweaks, I actually got it working on a Raspberry Pi 4 (4gb ram). I'll write up my notes, have another go from scratch and then put this up here - it's surprisingly response and show actually work fine for small teams.

I'll leave that here as well. This is an instructions set to get the OpenProject stable/10 release working on ARM boards, tested on a Raspberry PI 4 system with 4 GB RAM on Raspian Buster. A few tweaks are required to make it work, so think carefully before deploying this in a production environment, but otherwise it probably makes for the most cost and power effective OpenProject instance possible.

Happy to receive & incorporate any feedback!

Update - as of Feb 2021, OpenProject 11 works on a Raspberry Pi 4. Much less hassle, seems more robust and throws a lot fewer error messages. Kudos to the devs! I updated the instructions, and have an image file for people who want to give it a go. And I won't abandon my mailbox this time round.

Are you running as a docker image? If so, is it pushed to dockerhub, which could be helpful for others as well?

Thanks in advance.
