Can't download themes or emulators error 'tar -xv -z -C
-
@mitu Before connecting the adapter I checked it with my pc first (and it worked. And the scraper works fine. Does the old retropie version (4.3) affects something?
And does this line /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build/fuse is for computer networking? -

No, this is a folder where the RetroPie script tries to download the emulator's sources in order to build and install it, but obviously fails.
Just because the adapter works from the PC, doesn't mean it works correctly in RetroPie. If you use the RetroPie system and choose Show IP address, what's the output ? -
here is the image of ip address
-
@edgarsv You seem to have an internal (LAN) IP on the adapter, so the adapter seems to work. If you try to update the RetroPie script, does it work ?
-
No it doesn't I think... This is what it shows ...!
-
@edgarsv It looks like either your date/time is off (which kind of is, based on your first screenshot) or your installation is too old and it's missing the necessary CA info to validate the HTTPS connection's certificate to github.com.
Try updating the
ca-certificates
package and make sure your date and time are correct. Run this from the command line or from an SSH session.# update ca-certificates sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get -y install ca-certificates # Check the date/time date
-
Here is how it worked...
The only part I understood was that the date is wrong. -
Try setting the date from the internet
sudo systemctl stop ntp sudo ntpdate 2.debian.pool.ntp.org # Check the date again date
-
After first command nothing happened but after the 2nd command it said command not found
-
-
@edgarsv Try installing the
ntpdate
command withsudo apt-get -y install ntpdate
and then retry to set the date.
-
I did what you told but the date didn't change saying 8 Jul 15:48:38 ntpdate[1531]: no server suitable for synchronization found
-
@edgarsv Try with the well known NIST time server:
sudo ntpdate time.nist.gov
-
That didn't work either... Is there a way to set by my self? What could the reason for it not founding the servers?
-
@edgarsv You can set the date with
timedatectl
- see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Time#Set_system_clock. But I suspect the problem is that your internet connection is not working correctly, RetroPie would have set the time and date automatically from the internet. -
Probably easiest to just start with a 4.4 image - Jessie support will be dropped by us in the future anyway.
-
So... What should I do?
-
Should I change retropie's version to 4.4? or try to replase raspberry pi zero to raspberry pi 3?
-
Is that the solution for me?
