npx mudslide not working on Rasberry Pi2 (Bookworm)

[AuroreVgn]

Hello,

I have installed mudslide on my Rasperry Pi2 running Raspbian 12 (Bookworm). It's a brand new installation.

After a successfull QR-Code registration, I have the following issue when I tried to do anything with npx mudslide command:

npx mudslide@latest groups

      ^

I have searched on Git and I found this closed issue but I'm not really sure if it's the same problem.

Do you have any idea to solve this problem?

Thanks :-)

Hi @AuroreVgn

Unfortunately, I don't have access to this platform and can't reproduce it on x64 Linux. So, not sure what the root cause is.
Maybe you can try the latest ARM binary? https://github.com/robvanderleek/mudslide/releases/download/0.31.0/mudslide-linuxstatic-arm64

Maybe Pi2 isn't x64

Maybe Pi2 isn't x64

Thank you for your reply!

You're right... Pi2 isn't x64.

Before I re-install this Pi2, it was running Raspbian 11 and mudslide worked perfectly.

Is there any 'old version' or arm (for 32 bit) I can use?

I already use the lastest version.

npx --version
10.9.2
npx mudslide --version
0.31.0

I tried npx mudslide send [email protected] 'Hello world' without @lastest and it works....
