Issues installing on ubuntu 15.10

Closed this issue · 14 comments

Hey, might just be me, but i'm stuck between $ python setup.py install and running evic

I keep getting an error that "evic" does not contain a main module. :<

Ban3 commented

Could you post the full output from running setup.py and evic?

Ran into the same, output:

I can see it cannot recognise the build

Ban3 commented

Please install setuptools before building and try again.

Made some progress... checked that all dependencies were installed.
Also, I am trying to run two VMs on 14.04 and 15.10 but they both get the error.
Current output:

Actually, just now I tried running it native on my OS X install and I get the same error.
It must be my n00bness then...

Could you try launching it as evic instead of python evic? Like sudo evic dump-dataflash -o out.bin.

Ban3 commented

@ReservedField is right. Don't put python in front of the command.

Oh wow... See... n00bness, that's what I said.
It's even running on OS X. All these VMs only cause lack of brain.
Anyway keep up the great work, you guys!
Indeed I am trying to get the new Presa 3.0 on the eVic :)

Sorry, didn't have time to do it yet, thanks for the info guys, will try it later! :-)

Aaaand... Success!

Really, thank you!
I can confirm that now my eVic is Unknown to the Joyetech updater and a Presa 75W to the Wismec one.
I have never really programmed, but this really makes me wanna tinker with it!
I don't even know any C but I'm going to try decrypting the firmwares and see what can be played with.

Ban3 commented

Is this still an issue?

Wanna share firmware?

@Konsoul3 You can download the Presa firmware from here: http://www.wismec.com/product/presa-tc75w/

Extract the zip. Firmware file is Presa_TC75W_V3.00.bin

@spado92 Thank you 👍
