onion-console-webcom app failing to install...



  • I just fired up my first Onion2+, and tried to get the webcam running. In the web console, I start the webcam app and it tries to install it, but then asks me to log in again. After going through that more than few times (checking network, etc.), I ssh'd in, and did an 'oupgrade --check' and saw that I'm up-to-date there. I then did 'opkg update'. And then looked around under /www to find webcam-console, and then found onion-console-webcam in 'opkg list'.

    So, when I try to run 'opkg install onion-console-webcam' I get the output below, showing package conflicts. oupgrade output follows the package-install-output.

    Any idea how to get this fixed?

    # opkg install onion-console-webcam

  • For anyone else that hits this, the solution is to add "--force-overwrite" to the very end of the command.

    After doing that, it installed fine, and works like a charm.

    # opkg install onion-console-webcam --force-overwrite
