Skyscraper stuck on version 3.7.7 for Raspberry pi 5. [solved]
-
I can't reproduce this error with the latest RetroPie-Setup. Does the 3.14 shows up in the Skyscraper scraping interface when you start it ?
What is the output of the the following command shows:
cd $HOME/RetroPie-Setup sudo ./retropie_packages.sh skyscraper _check_ver -

sudo ./retropie_packages.sh skyscraper _check_verNote:
_get_veris the one that will actually report a version number._check_verwill only show the error (or not.) -
Does nothing apparently.

Which is puzzling since this is actually the part that prints the error you're getting (The version of Skyscraper you have installed is incompatible with options used by this script. Please update Skyscraper to the latest version to continue).
How exactly are you starting/accessing the scraping menu ?
-
@mitu I'm accessing the scraping menu via RetroPie Setup via SSH from my PC.
-
@Scraperdude Can you show the screenshot with the error ? And the result of the command:
cd $HOME/RetroPie-Setup sudo ./retropie_packages.sh skyscraper _get_ver -

I don't get an error with this. This is all that happens:

Here's the error I get when trying to use Skyscraper:

@Scraperdude There's something fishy here, this should print the version of Skyscraper, something like:
cd $HOME/RetroPie-Setup sudo ./retropie_packages.sh skyscraper _get_ver = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Running action '_get_ver' for 'skyscraper' : Scraper for EmulationStation = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 3.14.0What's the output of the command:

@mitu I installed Raspberry pi OS LITE (64-BIT) rather than Raspberry Pi OS (64-bit) as that was advised to make Skyscraper work on the Pi 5. Might that be an issue?
-
@Scraperdude No, that's not an issue - who advised you to not install the Lite version ?
Your error is very strange, I don't understand why Skyscraper tries to copy some configuration files, since
CACHE.mdis definitely not a configuration file and it's definitely not needed for it to run.@Lolonois any idea what happens here ? I can't reproduce this error with a fresh 3.14 installation, even if I remove my previous user configs.
-
@Scraperdude you can try and completely remove Skyscraper and install a clean version. Run the following commands:
rm -fr $HOME/.skyscraper rm -fr /opt/retropie/configs/all/skyscraperand then re-install Skyscraper from RetroPie-Setup.
-
I got this message after removing it.
-
Unfortunately the issue persists.

Things de-rail when there is a
/usr/local/etc/skyscraper/path present on a RetroPie installation, while it should not be there, unless Skyscraper was installed manually.I will make this section more robust soon, but for now move or remove the
skyscraperfolder from/usr/local/etc.Then you should get proper
Skyscraper -handSkyscraper --versionoutput. -

@Scraperdude cool. One more thing: Please edit the subject of the very first post of this thread and add [solved] or similar. Thanks & happy scraping!

@Lolonois I now have an issue where it's scraping some systems and not others, and when I scrape individual systems, some of the scraped systems are undone.
Could this be because I moved the cache folder?
