Failed to pass test on Raspberry Pi

[Kuree]

Since raspberry pi is ARM6 32-bit architecture, I built influxdb from source code. However, when I tried to build & test, it failed to auth as a db user.

influxdb version: 0.7.0
Error message:

@Kuree does this test fail everytime ? also if you can give us access to an arm based machine we will try to take a look. Otherwise, you'll have to wait until we setup an emulator to be able to run the tests and see what's going on.

This test fails every time. I'll try if we can provide one raspberry pi for you guys to ssh and test.

Hi I sent a email containing ip address, username, and password to your support email, support@influxdb.com. Thanks.

Is this still an issue? I was actually just coming here to see if there is InfluxDB support for Raspberry Pi (thought it would be cool for home metrics) and found this issue.

[Kuree]

I don't know yet. From the logging it seems like the error is caused by a int parsing problem. In addition, the package they provided at #476 is built against another architecture, rather than arm.

yeah, we got little busy over the last few weeks, i'll try to look into it today. regarding the build, i'm trying to use http://crosstool-ng.org/ but i can't build tools for armv6-rpi-linux-gnueabi, i might try the raspberry pi cross compilers but I like crosstool because it's more generic

[pspeter3]

Thanks for looking into it!

[Kuree]

You can use the raspberry pi we provided. I think it's still working right now!

Thanks @Kuree for the raspberry pi. I've been using it to run the test suite. So far there's only one test that's failing and shouldn't be a concern. InfluxDB should be runnable on raspberry pi without a problem. Please open new github issues if you see any bugs. I'll go ahead and close this issue.

@Kuree do you think you could put the deb up of the Influxdb version you built?
