Adaptor installation issue with dhis2

Hi everyone
I am trying to export data to dhis2 with openFN jobs. But I am getting an error. Is there anyone who can help me please?
Here is the command I tried to run and its response.

Hello @tsegayesemere! In your CLI command can you please try -ia dhis2 (where the i and a are together)? Currently you have the -i and -a separately like this: -i -a dhis2

Typically you want to use one or the other (e.g., -i dhis2 or -a dhis2)…
OR both together (e.g., -ia dhis2).
See here for the related OpenFn Docs page on the OpenFn CLI key usage commands.

If you’re still having issues, please paste the error in this thread and @mtuchi can respond tomorrow morning EAT :slight_smile:

Hi @tsegayesemere, thanks for posting!

I’m a bit puzzled by the error - it seems to suggest the adaptor is installed, but then fails to find it.

Could you please:

  1. Add --log debug to your command and paste the output here (or email it to jclark at openfn.org if it’s very long)

  2. Check whether a file exists at /tmp/openfn/repo/node_modules/@openfn/language-dhis2_3.2.8/package.json

It might also help to know which platform you’re running on.

Thanks!

Great! Thanks @aleksa-krolls.
your solution worked.
It took more than 19 minutes to install the adaptor then finally it worked.

glad you’re all sorted out @tsegayesemere , but wow… 19 minutes is a long time. they’re usually very quick, so I’d say if something is taking more than a few seconds it’s worth checking https://status.npmjs.org/

while the adaptor itself is small the dependency installation might take a while if NPMjs is having trouble.

thanks so much for reporting :raised_hands: and please let us know if this problem pops back up again. use @jclark 's command (--log debug) so we can get a little more detail and let us know what OS and node version you’re using.

thanks again.

Installation time reduced significantly when I run it for a second time. Here is the log detail.
