Raspberry Pi grove software installation failure[SOLVED]

Raspberry pi 2, new installation of Raspbian. trying to install the Grove software for my Grove board which has a sound sensor attached, the installation came crashing to a halt:

pi@raspberrypi2:~/Desktop/GrovePi/Script $ sudo ./install.sh

Something went wrong building/installing wiringPi, exiting.

As the board was already attached when I first tried the installation, I shut down the pi and removed it, then tried the isntallation again, but it field in an identical way.

Any idea what's going wrong?

Attached is the whole log, in case it’s useful…

Hey jacquot,
Looks like cloning the Wiring Pi repo failed for you. Can you try just running this: git clone git://git.drogon.net/wiringPi and check if it works. If it does try running the script again. Also, is there any reason why you are running your own image. We have a custom image Raspbian for Robots which works pretty well with our products and we recommend to people who use our product. Do check the link here for more details: http://www.dexterindustries.com/raspbian-for-robots/.

Hello Karan

The git clone did the job, and now I know about your Raspbian image, I might go for it.

Thanks for your help.

Bonne chance avec votre projet!

Hey,
I got exactly the same error as Jacquot in fact :

“Cloning into ‘wiringPi’…
fatal: read error: Connection reset by peer
./install.sh: line 90: cd: wiringPi: No such file or directory
./install.sh: line 93: ./build: No such file or directory
Something went wrong building/installing wiringPi, exiting.”

So, I tried your command : git clone git://git.drogon.net/wiringPi
But, I got this error :

“Cloning into ‘wiringPi’…
fatal: unable to connect to git.drogon.net:
git.drogon.net[0: 188.246.205.22]: errno=Connection timed out
git.drogon.net[1: 2a03:9800:10:7b::2]: errno=Network is unreachable”

I don’t know how to solve my problem, I also tried the command with sudo but it’s the same.
I tried with the raspbian image : https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/
And I also tried with this one : https://sourceforge.net/projects/dexterindustriesraspbianflavor/?source=typ_redirect

The drogon site sometimes goes out of reach. I just tested it minutes ago, and it’s working.
Can you try again? If you’re still having an issue, then the problem would be elsewhere.

I am assuming that your Pi has an internet connection up and running. That would be the first thing to check.

I solved my problem, I don’t know how exactly but it’s working now, thanks

Great to hear! Most likely it was the drogon site having issues. It’s happened in the past. Thanks for letting us know!
