Whatsapp install problem

[Ritmeester]

I have a problem with installing WhatsApp message system in Domoticz.

I have a test system with a clean install of Domoticz 3.4834. After install I did expand the filesystem and ran de OS updates with:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

After this I update Domoticz to latest beta version.

Then I start to install the WhatsApp tools according to the page on Instructables link in the Wiki page.
My WhatsApp registration went very well without errors and I get a password.

After installing and creating the config file I must start de CLI client to test a message.

And here is goes wrong and I don’t know what to do now:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi:~/yowsup$ cd /home/pi/yowsup
pi@raspberrypi:~/yowsup$ yowsup-cli demos --yowsup --config config

I do see in your log:

Code: Select all

IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/protobuf-3.0.0b3-py2.7.egg/EGG-INFO/requires.txt'

But I guess you already tried this command with sudo??

It should be like this:

Code: Select all

./yowsup-cli demos --yowsup --config config

If you have problems installing whatsapp then try switching over to using gb whatsapp at techbigs. The app lets you text and call your loved ones for free.
