Can't load Patchbox Modules

Patchbox OS
1

hello!

I’m not a new user of pisound nor patchbox, but I’ve been away from it lately. I flashed a new sd card with the latest patchbox os. I get to the patchbox wizard and configure everything ok but when I get to the “Modules” page I get an error when I try to load a module, any module… and If I try again, same issue, always.
if I choose “none” I go to patchbox os environment and everything works, beside the modules.

can anyone help?

this is what I get in the terminal after trying to install a module for Pd:

patchbox.module.ModuleError: Failed to install puredata.module via /usr/local/patchbox-modules/puredata/install.sh script

SOLVED :white_check_mark: did sudo apt update && sudo apt install pd and somehow it worked, didn’t try any more modules, just Pd.

Hey, this command was necessary to fix patchbox utility:

sudo apt-get update --allow-releaseinfo-change --fix-missing

You probably ran it before, to get around the apt warnings. :slight_smile:

Unfortunately we can’t deliver this fix easily (as it’d come via apt itself, which won’t work, until the above command is run), so users manually must run this command. I’ve updated the Patchbox OS download topic to make this command more explicit.
