Installer script fails

[Wordsmith9091]

The first time I tried running the powershell script, it saw that python wasn't installed and auto-installed it.

But after that, some text whizzes by and the powershell window closes. The script is failing somewhere but it's going by too quickly to see what the problem is.

Hello, I spent my entire day on this problem to finally resolve it. There should be no more problems, let me know if you still have any problems.

Unfortunately, it's still not working for me.

This time, it got as far as asking me for a directory for sunshine aio. When I put in one that doesn't exist (d:\sunshineaio) it just repeats the prompt. When I created a directory at that path before running the script, it got a little further, saying something about git not being installed before closing the powershell window.

I didn't think I needed Git installed just for the powershell script (it looked on the front page like I needed it for contributing, but not just to run the script), but I installed Git for Window anyway, with all default settings in the installer wizard.

Then I ran the powershell script again. This time it didn't give that error, but still only got a few lines in before closing the window again. First it said "fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git" a few times. Then something about a requirement already being satisfied before immediately closing again. Unfortunately, it moved by too fast for me to see what that last error is (and it's possible it flashed more text before actually closing).

It's true that I forgot to check if git was installed, I need to add it. However, for the rest, simply delete the folder that you created manually and relaunch the script.
Try putting the path to your desktop like C:\Users<your_username>\Desktop and see if the folder is created and the program launches.

That works to get it installed!

Unfortunately, now that it is, I'm running into another problem that I also had when I last tried AIO, before you had the powershell script available. When I try to launch an app in Moonlight, it hands on the "establishing connection" screen, seemingly indefinitely. On my PC, I see the monitor(s) flash the display on and off a couple of times, as they would during a change to my display setup, like plugging in a new monitor (possible when it's seeing the virtual display connected). But then nothing happens after that, and the machine becomes laggy to the point that it's nearly unresponsive, and I have to reset it before it works normally again.

Can you share your sunshine-virtual-monitor logs ? located in Sunshine-AIO\tools\sunshine-virtual-monitor-main\sunvdm.log

Also take a look in this issue there is a workaround you can try : Cynary/sunshine-virtual-monitor#16 (comment)

I just wanted to report that I ran into these exact same issues. Using the direct path to my desktop solved that issue, but I had the same problem with the handshake not working. However, I also run two displays, my desktop and my tv. I unplugged the desktop display and tried connecting again and it worked. I had a feeling the handshake was failing because there seems to be some kind of problem with two displays being connected to my pc. This was never an issue before the script powershell installation, but I do suspect it had something to do with a windows update, after which even my old sunshine/moonlight setup did not work anymore.

I ran into this issue just now, it refused to install to my second SSD (F:\ drive) but when I installed to a directory on C:\ it worked.

Same issue here. After installig git and running script i get
ERROR: Could not open requirements file: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'requirements.txt
Then install fails and closes powershell window. Using Sunshine-AIO.ps1, hovewer, allows to retain windows contents:

Tried previous solutions of deleting folders, changing location, reinstalling git (maybe i use some wront install settings there?). Nothing works, should i maybe add .git file somewhere?

[LeGeRyChEeSe]

Hello @mppilat, make sure to correctly delete the Sunshine-AIO folder and reexecute the irm https://sunshine-aio.com/script.ps1 | iex command from a powershell window. Make sure the path contains no spaces. For your example if you want to install it in the D:\ folder, then just type D:\

I've just tried now and it worked, so maybe try to reinstall once, and if you still got the issue, please send some logs and the folder's content.

[mppilat]

Somehow it worked this time.
I created one test repo before running script, maybe that triggered git to start working properly.
Installed everything, will test soon how streaming works. Thanks for help and this fantastic automation. I hope everything will work :)

I'm at a complete loss as to why I can't seem to get the script to run.

This is what powershell says just before it closes

Running the program ...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\Username\Desktop\Sunshine\Sunshine-AIO\src\main.py", line 2, in
from misc.MenuHandler import MenuHandler
File "C:\Users\Username\Desktop\Sunshine\Sunshine-AIO\src\misc\MenuHandler.py", line 4, in
from misc.Config import DownloadManager
File "C:\Users\Username\Desktop\Sunshine\Sunshine-AIO\src\misc\Config.py", line 4, in
import requests
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'requests'

[kerashistorm]

That's a python error. It looks like the third party requests library didn't get installed. That will be an easy fix, fortunately. One way is to uninstall Python and everything related before running the install script again. Alternatively, if you are using python for something else, just install the requests library with pip.

Hello, did you install the program with the irm https://sunshine-aio.com/script.ps1 | iex command from a powershell ? It should give you no error if you set a correct path when requested like C:\Users\Username\Desktop

So I originally installed it some months ago and it worked fine
I'd changed some settings in sunshine related to the virtual display and wanted to repair my installation so I ran the installer again in powershell.

The first time it ran it told my python wasn't installed (which is odd because it was never removed from the time I'd originally installed) and installed it, and then I was able to set the directory location. After it's created the directory powershell outputs what I posted and then closes. I've tried pointing the directory to the root of 3 seperate drives as well as the desktop and they all return the same error

@NJMRgit the latest update should fix the issue, try executing the command again and tell me.
