Buildiso not working missing manjaro-live-setup command

[pheiduck]

During build of cinnamon iso I get this error:

  -> Call manjaro-live-setup ...
chroot: failed to run command '/usr/bin/manjaro-live-setup': No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in make_image_live().
    Aborting...
 --> overlayfs umount: [/var/lib/manjaro-tools/buildiso/cinnamon/x86_64/livefs]
 --> umount overlayfs: [/var/lib/manjaro-tools/buildiso/cinnamon/x86_64/livefs]

Adding to the Packages-Live of cinnamon did not help

Hi,

[root tip] [How To] Mini guide to build Manjaro ISO

Build Manjaro ISO Prerequisites lots of diskspace (skip this if your root is sufficiently large) installing the tools tools configuration building Diskspace You need a lot diskspace - 15-20G per iso you intend to build The tools Install the manjaro-tools needed for building an ISO sudo pacman -Syu git manjaro-tools-iso-git Configure tools With the tools installed copy the default tools configuration to your home cp -R /etc/manjaro-tools ~/.config Modify the tools configuration to poin…

Did you follow this tutorial ?

[pheiduck]

Yes, still the same error

Hmm - I just tested buildiso - no errors.

I am thinking your build mirror may be outdated - check it

cat ~/.config/manjaro-tools/manjaro-tools.conf | grep build_mirror

If you don’t have that file - check the default file

cat /etc/manjaro-tools/manjaro-tools.conf | grep build_mirror

Copy the folder /etc/manjaro-tools to your home ~/.config and edit the build_mirror to use an up-to-date mirror.

Are you running the latest ISO-PROFILES, can’t tell you how many times that has bit me in the a**!

[pheiduck]

Thanks @linux-aarhus it is working again after setup another more up to date mirror in the config file.

Where is a list of build mirrors??? I can’t even find a reference to this on the main Wiki page.

@ajgringo619

There is no list - only a single mirror

# custom build mirror server 
# build_mirror=https://manjaro.moson.eu/

Due to the nature of voluntary mirror providers, there is no guarantees…

@ajgringo619

I can’t even find a reference to this on the main Wiki page.

Not everything is in the wiki - only the toe-dipping stuff - the configuration file is self documenting.

As for a list of up-to-date mirrors - please see https://repo.manjaro.org

Ahhh, I thought that build mirrors were different than regular mirrors. Now, if the Gitlab site could stay up for a few minutes, I could actually try this again…

Phil is in the process of migrating our GitLab to a new Forgejo instance, so might not want to bother right now.

@philm

This also sets Manjaro Linux into a frozen state for a while until we have finished migrating our Gitlab Instance over to a new Forgejo Instance. Current source code can be browsed in the meantime here.

The Manjaro Development category is not for support issues.
Moved to Support with buildiso tag
