Description

Hi, I just picked up this project after a while and I am trying to make this script working on boot.
I started with the information from #26 where @xiongyihui said to add it to the autorun.sh file.

What I Did

• Added these lines to autorun.sh:

echo "executing run_alexa.sh script" > /dev/console
/root/run_alexa.sh &

• Created new executable file called run_alexa.sh and added the following lines:

#!/bin/sh
cd /root/
echo "run_alexa.sh: changed working dir to:" > /dev/console
pwd > /dev/console


echo "run_alexa.sh: Starting 5 sec sleep process..." > /dev/console
sleep 5

echo "run_alexa.sh: done sleeping, running alexa in screen: sleepyalexa..." > /dev/console
echo "run_alexa.sh: to access this screen, type screen -r" > /dev/console
screen -dm -S sleepyalexa ash -c "alexa"

A new screen is being created at boot with the 'alexa' command and the light ring lights up, but after I say something, the alexa.py script crashes and it loops on this error:

Some notes:

• I can start a new screen from SSH just fine (with screen ash -c "alexa") and deattach from it. Alexa keeps working and I can reattach to it whenever I want.
• I can start a detached screen from SSH just fine (with screen -dm -S sleepyalexa ash -c "alexa") and Alexa keeps working in the background.

I just can't get it to start at boot without the error above. Does someone know how to fix it?

INFO:requests.packages.urllib3.connectionpool:Resetting dropped connection: api.amazon.com

After looking a bit closer in the code and errors I noticed that the connections to api.amazon.com are somehow being dropped and because of that, it does not receive a response, which causes this error. I find it weird that connections are being dropped when starting alexa in a detached screen at boot, but it works just fine when you start it via a SSH connection.

I get the following INFO message when running from a SSH connection:

INFO:requests.packages.urllib3.connectionpool:Starting new HTTPS connection (1): api.amazon.com

Does someone know how to fix it?
