I have a RPi 2, running OSMC.
I tried setting up the agent, but I keep getting the error “Error claiming the device. Could not claim the device to your account” after I successfully login and provide the name.
Running “particle-agent logs” shows the following error:
Starting agent
No firmware to run.
Signaling firmware to shut down cleanly
Quitting agent gracefully
Starting agent
/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/particle_agent/firmware_runner.rb:70:in `spawn': No such file or directory - /var/lib/particle/devices/DEVICE_ID/firmware.bin (Errno::ENOENT)
from /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/particle_agent/firmware_runner.rb:70:in `run_firmware'

from /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/particle_agent/agent.rb:37:in `block (2 levels) in start_firmware_runners'
The folder “/var/lib/particle/devices/DEVICE_ID” exists, but it’s owned by root and only readable/writable/execute by it (chmoded 700).
This folder has the file “firmware.bin” and it’s a non-empty file.
Same thing for device_id.txt, device_key.der, device_key.pub.pem, and server_key.der.
There are also two empty files - stdin and stdout.
Rebooting didn’t help, running again the initial curl line that installs the agent didn’t work, calling “particle-agent setup” didn’t work.
Any idea what’s going on and how can I successfully set it up ?
So far I’ve only tested the agent setup on Raspbian. Maybe some prerequisite is missing on OSMC? Can you paste the lines printed when you run the curl install command?
osmc@rpi1:~$ bash <( curl -sL https://particle.io/install-pi )
