Skyscraper stuck on version 3.7.7 for Raspberry pi 5.

mitu

@Scraperdude No, I mean the RetroPie-Setup first page dialog, which has the version and the git hash printed at the top.

This looks like the last commit, so your repository seems up-to-date. Can you run the installation for Skyscraper and then post the lastest log file from $HOME/RetroPie-Setup/logs on pastebin.com ?

Scraperdude

@mitu Here's the log:

https://pastebin.com/XRDc7suP

mitu

The log shows a succesful installation of Skyscraper at version 3.14.
Seems to me that you have the latest version - do you still get get the initial error you reported (The version of Skyscraper you have installed is incompatible with options used by this script. Please update Skyscraper to the latest version to continue) ?

Scraperdude

@mitu Yes I still get this error.

mitu

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_ver

Note: _get_ver is the one that will actually report a version number. _check_ver will only show the error (or not.)

Scraperdude

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 ?

Scraperdude

@mitu I'm accessing the scraping menu via RetroPie Setup via SSH from my PC.

mitu

@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

3.14.0

What's the output of the command:

/opt/retropie/supplementary/skyscraper/Skyscraper  --version

@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?

mitu

@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.md is 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.

mitu

@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/skyscraper

and then re-install Skyscraper from RetroPie-Setup.
