Cant access Hypeion UI

I am a total noob to all of this, but I'll try to explain, I had hyperion installed and everything was working great until my Pie died. So I ordered a new pie and went through all the install steps again from the dr z youtube video. However for some reason I can not get into the web browser. So far I have tried installing Hyperion NG and the last 3 versions and get the same result. I was however able to get to the browser using a hyperbrian image. However I had a capture card issue and the lights were not responding so I abandond that one.

I decided to reformat the card and start from scratch using the DRZ method again and it does not any diference if I use a 16GB card or a 8GB . I can't access the webbrowser. I can SSH into it , but thats about it. Can someone lease help, I have been scouring the web and forums for 2 days now. When I type in hyperiond I get illegal instruction.
Its is a Pi 3b plus and I was able to get into the uI with only hyperbrian image.

look into your router and check the IP adres thats assigned to the raspi, you did a lot of installations on the same MAC adres of the raspi so its possible the router has given all kinds of DHCP adresses out to the raspi...

if you have double IP's then its never possible to see it.
so first ultracheck if it has got anything at all ( which i dont believe in much, can be wrong..) got to do with Hyperion and this is more a faulty router or networkissue

Thanks for responding. I am using a google wifi puck and everything is working. I can even ssh into it. I looked at the Pi and it only has 1 ip address. I even renamed it. with the google wifi app. I could try rebooting my routerbut not sure if that would do any good.. I think the odd thing is it will load with a hyperbian image but nothing else seems to work. Also I typed in
systemctl status hyperiond@pi.service
I get this
hyperiond@pi.service - Hyperion ambient light systemd service for user pi
Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/hyperiond@.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

If you can SSH into it then you know the ip of the Pi so that ip with :8090 in your browser should take you to the GUI but your service is your problem here, its not running or in a limbo state of trying to start, maybe @Lord-Grey or @TPmodding have encountered questions about Active: activating (auto-restart) before.

but without saying its your fault it could be something your doing on each install without realising it esp when i worked on the pre built Hyperbian image, you could try these in the meantime.

Code

sudo systemctl stop hyperion

Code

sudo systemctl disable hyperion

Code

sudo systemctl enable hyperion

Code

sudo systemctl start hyperion

wait a minute before running this one

Code

sudo systemctl status hyperion

If it still shows
Active: activating (auto-restart) (Result: signal)
What do you get when you run this

Code

ls -la /usr/bin/hyperiond

Wow thanks everyone for your quick replies. Well I started at the top and found this interesting.

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo systemctl stop hyperion
Failed to stop hyperion.service: Unit hyperion.service not loaded.
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo systemctl start hyperion
Failed to start hyperion.service: Unit hyperion.service not found.
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo systemctl status hyperion
Unit hyperion.service could not be found.
pi@raspberrypi:~ $

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ls -la /usr/bin/hyperiond
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Feb 11 18:05 /usr/bin/hyperiond -> /usr/share/hyperion/bin/hyperiond

Thats weird as I have 100% have a photo of it saying hyperion was installed as a service it will start on each system startup.

sweet, so like running the wrong architecture
and @Hocus you probably installed that same version each time?

Code

uname --m

That should match the version you got from the Release Page

If so try this one just in case you have half installed packages

Code

sudo apt-get install -f

I have the Pi 3 B+ and I installed this one in my latest attempt.
https://github.com/hyperion-pr…-alpha.9-Linux-armv7l.deb

Interesting enough when I typed uname --M its come back as armv6L

Thanks again in advance you guys are saving me from throwing this thing out the window lol.

Cool, you might want to uninstall and clean the files from that just in case anything is different

Code

sudo apt-get --purge remove hyperion

Then run the install again with the v6 version, Hopefully all will be working

Ive given it a good run and no joy. I am going to wipe it again and then remove the SD and start from scratch again. Hopefully it will work.

bit extreme but whatever you find easier Yeah hopefully it works out this time

Big thanks to everyone for your help. Well I am in and all is working aside from the USB capture stuff and the lights flickering off and on. I saw a thread about changing the resolution for my capture card fingers crossed that helps and any advice is welcomed. Anyway for anyone else who may stumble accross this problem, I was unable to get it going using github versions. After removing hyperion I downloaded the hyperbian image and installed that on my memory card. First time success getting into the web browser. I know its not the ideal way but the web ui says I am running the latest version. So I am half way back in the game
