Problems with uploading to raspberry pi using docker

1

Hi guys! I’m having trouble uploading my build to the reaspberry pi 3 using docker “docker_run.sh”.
Running:
./Tools/docker_run.sh "AUTOPILOT_HOST=192.168.1.76; make emlid_navio2 upload"

Gives the following output:
uessing PX4_DOCKER_REPO based on input
PX4_DOCKER_REPO: px4io/px4-dev-armhf:2021-02-04
Starting with UID : 1000

ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.
make: *** [Makefile:228: emlid_navio2] Error 1

I’m connected to raspberry via ssh with no problems and also when I execute the make command alone everything works fine. But I can’t manage to put the upload command to work.Can anyone help me with that? (edited)

I have found the temporary solution. It looks like the global setting AUTOPILOT_HOST=192.168.1.76 in the file boards/emlid/navio2/cmake/upload.cmake is marekd as not defined and therefore, it is reconfigured by the function below.

if(DEFINED ENV{AUTOPILOT_HOST})
        set(AUTOPILOT_HOST $ENV{AUTOPILOT_HOST})
else()
        set(AUTOPILOT_HOST "navio")
endif()

This made the hostname reset to the default setting “navio” which in my case doesn’t work. I have changed the code in the file to the.

if(DEFINED ENV{AUTOPILOT_HOST})
        set(AUTOPILOT_HOST $ENV{AUTOPILOT_HOST})
else()
        set(AUTOPILOT_HOST "192.168.1.76")
endif()

It is not the most elegant solution but however, it works for now. I still don’t know why global variable is not set :frowning:
