Picroft is not really maintained which means the code in there could be incompatible with the current skills. I would recommend to install mycroft-core via the standard procedure or try to use Docker with this procedure.

install mycroft-core into picroft?

I would go with a fresh Raspberry Pi OS.

recall. i had changed NOTHING and the rPi stopped with the above.

how come mycroft company wont reply to my request for support?

cant do fresh re install. too much effort to reinstall an pihat into the OS.

nothing changed but pycroft skills are dead.

i did a full mycroft reinstall and STILL the same issue. Please wait a moment as I finish booting up.

is something wrong on the MC serveR?

Did you Mycroft’s remove the directories as well?

rm -f /var/tmp/mycroft_web_cache.json
rm -rf /tmp/mycroft
rm -rf ~/.mycroft
rm -rf /opt/mycroft

yes. no change… even a fresh picroft install is stuck…

As mentioned above, I’ll not use Picroft and install directly mycroft-core on a fresh Raspberry Pi OS 64bit.

how do i do that? install core ? mycroft linux version of the core?

what caused my existing unit to hang at its skills?

Check my previous message:

It could be an update with the msm Python library, it could be a skill update as well which is incompatble with Picroft code (from 2021) or it could be anything else (check the logs in DEBUG mode to get more info if available).

There is nothing in the log files.

I would prefer to keep my pie Croft operating system as it is since I have a audio device in code already installed etc. Is there a way to uninstall the home automation code and then install it the way you said?

Didi you try to remove your directory where your skills are stored and restart Picroft?

@gez-mycroft just added a warning of about the Picroft on the documention.

A brand new pie cross image downloaded from the server installs and hangs the same way. The issue is the skill engine is not completing
