Crank GUI Deployment Failed on Toradex i.MX8MP Module with Torizon
Hello,
I am working on a Toradex i.MX8MP module with a Torizon container-based OS. I tried to deploy the Crank sample GUI using the TCP method. The file transfer worked, and the files were sent to the mainboard, but when I attempted to run the Crank GUI using the direct method with "Execute after transfer - /usr/crank/scp.sh," I encountered an error. The console output showed: sh: line 1: /usr/crank/scp.sh: No such file or directory. There was no GUI output on the display.
For the second method, I attempted to run the GUI manually using a Docker container, but I encountered version-related errors. Here is the terminal output:

Hi Anurag,
which documentation are you following?
I don't expect those containers to work on a new Torizon platform. Furthermore, I don't think you should be using that torizon container either if you are using a new torizon platform such as torizon 6.x.z or higier.
I would suggest you following this integration guide MaximilianoZa/crank_torizon_docker_containers at 16995263fa554a4a9b3412f4d416ab7be271b47f
let me know how that goes.

Hello Maximiliano ,
Thanks for the update. I'll check this documentation and tests. Since I am using Torizon OS and plan to deploy my GUI for validation with the end device, I used the SCP transfer method and executed the file after transfer. However, the only error I see in the Crank console is:
To achieve this functionality, I followed these tutorials:

Please let me know if you need any additional details.

Anurag
Hi Anurag,
Those tutorials are unfortunatly a bit outdated, maybe just follow the guide I sent you.
regarding this lib:
you need to preload it. on Torizon and Imx8 we run a Crank container on top of a Weston container, and that library is located on the Weston container, which contains all the Wayland libraries in it.
This is explained on the integration guide I pointed as well. you need to set that path properly.
I am confident that by following that guide step by step you should be able to run a Crank container without issue.
It seems that you are running on Torizon 7. I created and tested those containers in Torizon 6, but it should be fairly similar. There may be only one thing to check, when you run the weston container you should use a flag defined on the system: torizon/weston-vivante:$CT_TAG_WESTON_VIVANTE
in the Case for Torizon 6, this flag would be defined as 3, whereas in Torizon 5 is 2, not sure what would be the case for Torizon 7. this affects the container you are building from (FROM), define con the docker file in the Crank container.
you obviously want to run your own container eventually, but for a quick test you may try to run a ready container (for Torizon 7 may need some adjustments, refer to the Torizon docs):
keep us posted on how that goes.
