Packages installation issue

[niden]

Greetings

 

I have a brand new box with UN6.x

 

I have installed a docker image on it (MariaDB) and successfully set up replication with one of my production boxes.

 

What I am trying to do is install the awscli and git packages.

 

In my go file I have the following:

 

wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
python get-pip.py
pip install awscli

 

When it boots up it complains that it cannot resolve the domain which leads me to believe that at that point the IP address/DNS has not been set up yet. When the box finishes booting up I can easily run the commands from the command line and everything works fine.

 

Finally I downloaded the git package from here

 

http://mirrors.slackware.com/slackware/slackware-current/slackware/d/

 

and tried to install it

 

installpkg git-1.8.4-i486-1.txz 
Verifying package git-1.8.4-i486-1.txz.
Installing package git-1.8.4-i486-1.txz:
PACKAGE DESCRIPTION:
# git (the stupid content tracker)
#
# Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
# unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
# and full access to internals.
#
# "git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.
#
# Git was originally written by Linus Torvalds and is currently
# maintained by Junio C. Hamano.
#
Executing install script for git-1.8.4-i486-1.txz.
Package git-1.8.4-i486-1.txz installed.

 

but then I get this:

 

# git
-bash: /usr/bin/git: cannot execute binary file

 

Any pointers are more than appreciated.

 

Thanks

For git (and other future packages) you need to download the slackware64 version: git-1.8.4-x86_64-1.txz since unRaid v6 is 64bit

and place it in /boot/extra (the extra directory in the flashdrive)

this will auto install during startup.

 

for your awscli - you'll probably need a VM or a docker as adding python packages to unRaid is gonna be a bit messy

Thanks for the pointer

 

I downloaded the correct git file (not sure how I missed the architecture) and it works really well.

 

I like the idea of the docker for doing the rest of the operations that I need.
