Bitbake error - Nothing RPROVIDES - package

I would to split and application into multiple packages. Basically I just would like to add an other one which could be build by using a specific image.
Inside the .bb file associated to the application I added :
SRC_URI = " \
...
file://api.conf \
file://script.sh \
"
PACKAGES =+ "${PN} ${PN}-tools"
FILES_${PN}-tools = "${bindir}/mrvl/tools/script.sh \
${sysconfdir}/mrvl/api.conf \
"
Then, I added the following line in my bb image test
IMAGE_INSTALL += " mrvl-tools"
I am using the command bitbake image-test which returns :
ERROR: Nothing RPROVIDES 'mrvl-tools' (but /home/usr/../image-test.bb RDEPENDS on or otherwise requires it)
NOTE: Runtime target 'mrvl-tools' is unbuildable, removing...
Missing or unbuildable dependency chain was: ['mrvl-tools']
ERROR: Required build target 'image-test' has no buildable providers.
Missing or unbuildable dependency chain was: ['image-test', 'mrvl-tools']
I followed the same definition of the bluez5-obex package and IMAGE_ISTALL += " bluez5-obex" works..
What I forget ?

Anders is close.
First, your PACKAGES definition is wrong, all you need is PACKAGES += "${PN}-tools".
But the important thing to remember is that FILES is evaluated in the order of PACKAGES, so ${PN} is processed first and the default FILES_${PN} contains ${bindir} ${sysconfdir}, so all of ${bindir} and ${sysconfdir} is in ${PN}. Then it tries to process ${PN}-tools and none of the expressions in its FILES match any files remaining, so the package is empty.
So, either set FILES_${PN} to what you want it to contain, or use PACKAGE_BEFORE_PN=${PN}-tools to inject PN-tools before PN in the default PACKAGES value. Reading bitbake.conf will help make this clearer, I promise.
Note that I'd have expected the error to be a rootfs-time failure not an image construction failure, but hopefully this is the problem.

it's good to verify if the layer has been added to the
conf/bblayers.conf
this is where it usually starts with "nothing provides"
BBLAYERS += " \
${BSPDIR}/sources/"your layer" \

Thank Ross Burton for you answer. But I modified the .bb file and it currently contains the following lines :
SUMMARY_${PN}-tools="mrvl tools test"
PACKAGE_BEFORE_PN += "${PN}-tools"
RDEPENDS_${PN}-tools = ""
FILES_${PN}-tools = "${bindir}/mrvl/tools/script.sh ${sysconfdir}/mrvl/api.conf"
ALLOW_EMPTY_${PN}-tools = "1"
The build finished and the package named mrvl-test-tools_0.1-r0.ipk is well created under /build/tmp/deploy/ipk/board/ but it contains nothing. This is due to the variable "ALLOW_EMPTY..="1"". and without this line the build failed and the following message is displayed
Collected errors:
* opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package mrvl-test-tools.
ERROR: Function failed: do_rootfs
ERROR: Logfile of failure stored in: /home/../build/tmp/work/oe-linux/test-img/1.0-r0/temp/log.do_rootfs.4639
ERROR: Task 7 (/home/../sources/meta-board/recipes-images/images/test-img.bb, do_rootfs) failed with exit code '1'
I do not understand why files are now not included into the .ipk

Don't you need to add file in the extra files path
THISAPPENDFILESDIR := "${THISDIR}/file"
FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/file:"

SWUpdate on RPi4 via yocto - error parsing configuration file

After booting SWUpdate yocto-generated image for the first time, executing swupdate results in error message:
Error parsing configuration file: 'globals' section missing, exiting.
I tried to strictly follow SWUpdate's documentation, but it gets short when it comes to yocto integration. I'm using meta-swupdate, meta-swupdate-boards, and meta-openembedded layers together with poky example repository all at Kirkstone tag, building via bitbake update-image and having modyfied local.conf as:
MACHINE ??= "raspberrypi4-64"
ENABLE_UART = "1"
RPI_USE_U_BOOT = "1"
IMAGE_FSTYPES = "wic ext4.gz"
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_u-boot-fw-utils = "libubootenv"
IMAGE_INSTALL:append = " swupdate"
Is there anything else I need to modify to generate the configuration file and be able to run SWUpdate binary properly?
Side question: In the documentation, it's recommended to append swupdate-www to achieve a better web server. However, if I append it, there is no swupdate-www binary inside the `/usr/bin' directory.
As with other recipes folders the recipes-support/swupdate/swupdate/raspberrypi4-64 folder was missing inside the meta-swupdate-boards layer. Therefore, an empty config file was always generated. After adding this folder and all related files, strongly inspired by raspberrypi3 folder, the error was gone and swupdate -h provided the expected output.
There was also one new error during build process thrown by yocto. It was related to missing systemd requirement and was solved by adding:
DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " systemd"
to local.conf

What may be the reason why I get "Test ignored." message while running any test class in Apex?

Tests ignored: 14, passed: 0
Whenever I run any test class I get this type of messages:
Test ignored.
Test method AccountAddressHelperTest.testInvalidBillingCountry was
never reported as completed. Trigger.AllOppLineItemTriggers: line 188,
column 31: Method does not exist or incorrect signature: void
updateMISROnOpportunity(Map<Id,OpportunityLineItem>,
Map<Id,OpportunityLineItem>) from the type OppLineItemHelper
You have compilation failures. What happens if you hit Setup -> Classes -> Compile all?
You or your colleague edited something, probably in file OppLineItemHelper. Or some other file this file reuses. And now not everything compiles, dependencies aren't met. So best thing SF can do is skip these tests.
You can edit like that in sandboxes, SF will not always block you. But compile errors will prevent deployment to prod even before any tests are run

rpm and Yum don't believe a package is installed after Chef installs

Running chef-solo (Installing Chef Omnibus (12.3)) on centos6.6
My recipe has the following simple code:
package 'cloud-init' do
action :install
end
log 'rpm-qi' do
message `rpm -qi cloud-init`
level :warn
end
log 'yum list' do
message `yum list cloud-init`
level :warn
end
But it outputs the following:
- install version 0.7.5-10.el6.centos.2 of package cloud-init
* log[rpm-qi] action write[2015-07-16T16:46:35+00:00] WARN: package cloud-init is not installed
[2015-07-16T16:46:35+00:00] WARN: Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, presto
Available Packages
cloud-init.x86_64 0.7.5-10.el6.centos.2 extras
I am at a loss as to why rpm/yum and actually rpmquery don't see the package as installed.
EDIT: To clarify I am specifically looking for the following string post package install to then apply a change to the file (I understand this is not a very chef way to do something I am happy to accept suggestions):
rpmquery -l cloud-init | grep 'distros/__init__.py$'
I have found that by using the following:
install_report = shell_out('yum install -y cloud-init').stdout
cloudinit_source = shell_out("rpmquery -l cloud-init | grep 'distros/__init__.py$'").stdout
I can then get the file I am looking for and perform
Chef::Util::FileEdit.new(cloudinit_source.chomp(''))
The file moves based on the distribution but I need to edit that file specifically with in place changes.
Untested code, just to give the idea:
package 'cloud-init' do
action :install
notifies :run,"ruby_block[update_cloud_init]"
end
ruby_block 'update_cloud_init' do
block do
cloudinit_source = shell_out("rpmquery -l cloud-init | grep 'distros/__init__.py$'").stdout
rc = Chef::Util::FileEdit.new(cloudinit_source.chomp(''))
rc.search_file_replace_line(/^what to find$/,
"replacement datas for the line")
rc.write_file
end
end

I would better go using a template to manage the whole file, what I don't understand is why you don't know where it will be at first...
Previous answer
I assume it's a compile vs converge problem. at the time the message is stored (and so your command is executed) the package is not already installed.
Chef run in two phase, compile then converge.
At compile time it build a collection of resources and at converge time it execute code for the resource to get them in the described state.
When your log resource is compiled, the ugly back-ticks are evaluated, at this time there's a package resource in the collection but the resource has not been executed, so the output is correct.
I don't understand what you want to achieve with those log resources at all.
If you want to test your node state after chef-run use a handler maybe calling ServerSpec as in Test-Kitchen.

InstallShiled : Custom Action not able to read values from INI File

I am trying to read values from ".ini" file using install script Custom Action which will be installed at the target location. Below Install-script Code line doesn't read any values even the file is there at target location during installation.
Install Script Code :
GetProfString(TARGETDIR + "SampleSetup.ini","Main","AppTitle",szItemName);
Custom Action : Below is the major custom Action detail which was scheduled to be run "After InstallFinalize".
Function Name : AddDesktopShortCut (Custom Install Script Function)
Target : Synchonous(Check Exit Code)
In-Script Execution : Immediate Execution
Execution Scheduling : Always execute
Install UI Sequence :
Install Exec Sequence : After IntallFinalize
Install Exec Condition : Not Installed
Remaining Settings are the default ones.
Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks for your Time.
If that's all of your code, how can you tell if it read the value?
I would suggest either using the debugger, or sprinkling some MessageBox calls in to see what values your program uses. In particular, ensure the ini file is where your code is looking (TARGETDIR + "SampleSetup.ini" should likely be TARGETDIR ^ "SampleSetup.ini" instead), check the return code from GetProfString, and see what szItemName is after the call.

What is causing the scaleX method of Imager class to fail?

This is a cross post from Perl Monks and Mahalo answers, where I have not received a satisfactory response yet. Thanks for your time and spirit:
Why do I get this error message from perl:
Can't call method "scaleY" on an undefined value at C:/strawberry/perl +/site/lib/ Image/Seek.pm line 137?
I am getting the error in the title when calling the Image::Seek module from my script. My script is basically a rehash of the module's suggested code.
Here's the error again:
Can't call method "scaleY" on an undefined value at C:/strawberry/perl +/site/lib/ Image/Seek.pm line 137.
Here's my code:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use Imager;
use Image::Seek qw(loaddb add_image query_id savedb);
loaddb("haar.db");
my $img = Imager->new("photo-1.jpg")
or die Imager->errstr;
# my $img = Imager->new();
# $img->open(file => "photo-1.jpg")or die Imager->errstr;
add_image($img, 1);
savedb("haar.db");
Here's the section of the Image::Seek module causing the issue:
sub add_image_imager {
my ($img, $id) = #_;
my ($reds, $blues, $greens);
require Imager;
my $thumb = $img->scaleX(pixels => 128)->scaleY(pixels => 128);
for my $y (0..127) {
my #cols = $thumb->getscanline(y => $y);
for (#cols) {
my ($r, $g, $b) = $_->rgba;
$reds .= chr($r); $blues .= chr($b); $greens .= chr($g);
}
}
addImage($id, $reds, $greens, $blues); }
Line 137 is:
my $thumb = $img->scaleX(pixels => 128)->scaleY(pixels => 128);
If I remove
->scaleY(pixels => 128)
then line 129:
my #cols = $thumb->getscanline(y => $y);
gives me essentially the same error.
At this point I'm just trying to add one image to the database. There is an image in the directory where I'm running the script to add the image, named "photo-216.jpg". If I change the name to "photo-1.jpg" or "photo-0.jpg" and change the corresponding "add_image" and "query_id" to respectively 1 or 0, it's the same result.
I do have a database that is 385 KB big that comes from running makedb.pl below, but it is filled with null characters. I renamed this "haar.db". This is the database that gives me the error. If I recreate the haar.db file as an empty one, then the script hangs and after a couple of minutes, it give this different message:
"This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information."
If there is no "haar.db" the file still gives me the error in this post's title and unlike running makedb.pl, gives me no database named "haar.db".
By the way I get multiple examples of this post's title error also when trying to run this database filling script: http://www.drk7.jp/pub/imgseek/t/makedb.pl.txt/, which I was alluding to before. I obviously removed the .txt extension before trying it. The makedb.pl script is from this Japanese site: http://www.drk7.jp/MT/archives/001258.html.
If I run makedb.pl in a directory of 2423 scanned collectible postage stamps images, I get 362 instances of the error. The 2423 stamps is the number I have after removing the "small" thumbnail versions which I orignally thought might be causing the issue.
Could it be, that some of the images are less than 128 pixels and that is the issue? However if this is true why does the database get filled with null characters?...Unless they are not really null even though the editor I'm using, Notebook++, says they are.
Also note my images are of stamps which are only sometimes perfect squares. Otherwise, sometimes they are "landscape" sometimes "portrait". Maybe the issue is when the "landscape" scaled images get an X axis of 128 pixels and then their Y axis ends up less or much less. Could this be?
Thanks much
Update: Answer completely re-organized.
Image::Seek is not checking if
scaleX returned error. In your case, for some images, scaleX is failing.
You seem to know for which images scaleX is failing. So, leave your current
code aside, and put together a short test script:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Imager;
die "Specify image file name\n" unless #ARGV;
my ($imgfile) = #ARGV;
my $img = Imager->new;
$img->read( file => $imgfile )
or die "Cannot read '$imgfile': ", $img->errstr;
my $x_scaled = $img->scaleX( pixels => 128 )
or die 'scaleX failed: ', $img->errstr;
my $thumb = $x_scaled->scaleY( pixels => 128 )
or die 'scaleY failed: ', $x_scaled->errstr;
__END__
Running this test script, you got the error message:
Cannot read 'photo-1.jpg': format 'jpeg' not supported - formats bmp,
ico, pnm, raw, sgi, tga available for reading
indicating the underlying problem: When you installed Imager via Strawberry
Perl's cpan, the libraries for png, jpg etc were not installed. One
solution is to build those libraries with the gcc compiler provided with
Strawberry Perl.
First, you will need zlib.
C:\Temp\zlib-1.2.3> copy win32\Makefile.gcc Makefile
Set prefix = /strawberry/c/local in the Makefile. Compile. You may have to
manually copy the files zlib.h and zconf.h to
C:\strawberry\c\local\include and zlib1.dll, libz.a and libzdll.a to
C:\strawberry\c\local\lib (I don't know because I do not use Strawberry Perl very often and my Strawberry environment is very neglected.)
Then, get libpng. I used the source archive without config script.
C:\Temp\libpng-1.2.38> copy scripts\makefile.mingw Makefile
C:\Temp\libpng-1.2.38> make prefix=/strawberry/c/local ZLIBLIB=/strawberry/c/local/lib ZLIBINC=/strawberry/c/local/include
This built the PNG library. Again, you may have to manually copy the .dll,
.a and .h files to the appropriate directories. I did because of my less
than perfect Strawberry environment.
Finally, get the JPEG library.
C:\Temp\jpeg-7> copy Makefile.ansi Makefile
Make sure to edit this file and set CC=gcc. Customize jconfig.h according
to the instructions in jconfig.txt. I used jconfig.dj as a basis.
You might also want to set
CFLAGS= -O2
SYSDEPMEM= jmemansi.o
in Makefile, and
#define DEFAULT_MAX_MEM 4*1024*1024
in jconfig.h. After running make, again copy the files as needed (and as explained by install.txt).
Once the libraries are installed, you can
C:\Temp> SET IM_INCPATH=C:\strawberry\c\local\include
C:\Temp> SET IM_LIBPATH=C:\strawberry\c\local\lib
C:\Temp> cpan
cpan> force install Imager
which yields:
gif: includes not found - libraries not found
ungif: includes not found - libraries not found
jpeg: includes found - libraries found
png: includes found - libraries found
tiff: includes not found - libraries not found
freetype2: includes not found - libraries not found
freetype2: not available
T1-fonts: includes not found - libraries not found
TT-fonts: includes not found - libraries not found
w32: includes found - libraries found
If all of this is too much work, it is ... sigh I just realized the
binaries are available at GnuWin32.
