Termux-packages: "termux was unable to install the bootstrap packages" when I open Termux

[DrLafa]

It happens all time when i try to open Termux
highscreen pure
android 5.0.2 with kernel 3.10.54

[Neo-Oli]

Well, do you have a network connection? Can you access http://termux.net/bootstrap/ in a browser?

[DrLafa]

yep, i have

[SDRausty]

@DrLafa Are you connected through a proxy? If you are, is everything configured correctly?

[DrLafa]

No, I do not have a proxy

[fornwall]

I guess the error dialog should be improved to actually show the stack trace happening (and add a button to copy it to the clipboard).

[SDRausty]

@DrLafa in your screenshot you are using wifi and 3G. Try with only one connection, the 3G one.

[xarx00]

Hello, I have exactly the same problem. Two days ago I installed Termux successfully on my (rooted) tablet. Then I wiped out the tablet, rooted it again, and have turned on the Android adaptable storage. And now I'm getting the above error.

Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016) Wi-Fi version, Android 7.0. Yes, I've got my wi-fi turned on and internet available. I have tested that several times with the same result.

[xarx00]

Problem resolved. It was caused by Termux being installed into the adoptable storage on the SD-card.
After moving Termux to the internal storage, the problem disappeared and Termux began to work.

[DrLafa]

Today I just downloaded this from my 3G. It still working now with wifi.

[biojet1]

Don't close this . We need to fix this. Termux should be able to run in Adoptable storage. Termux installation can get very large

[Grimler91]

@biojet1 we can't fix it fully. It isn't allowed to execute files in shared (adoptable) storage due to Androids security so it wouldn't be possible to have all of termux there.

It would be possible to move some files to shared storage but I'm not sure if we would save that much space.

[sassanh]

@Grimler91

It isn't allowed to execute files in shared (adoptable) storage due to Androids security

It maybe true for normal devices, but it's not true for rooted devices, I moved termux files folder to external sd (adopted as internal) and were able to execute binaries in usr/bin like gpg and login.

So I think termux should be able to install its bootstrap packages. My termux files folder is ~600MB and I don't want it to be in my main storage.

[Nadeembhat]

its due to the permission issue, set the permissions as it is

[Jasper-Ben]

Experiencing the same problem after upgrading my Nexus 5X from LineageOS 14.01 to 15.01 (Android 7 to Android 8) and reinstalling after factory reset. Termux is installed on "internal storage" ( /data/app/. Nexus 5X only has one storage). Tried Wi-Fi and 3G, no luck so far. Any ideas?

[jionkang]

is use network line cable is also having this problem

[Gadgetsage]

How long after "./start-ubuntu.sh script" should it take to install /launch Ubuntu in my note 4? It's just sitting there and has been for a while (5-10 minutes) should I be seeing some kind of activity?

[Gadgetsage]

Keeps saying "not found" after "./start-ubuntu.sh script".

Can I download the files needed, place them in a proper folder (and where should that be) and launch it that way?

[jesars]

I found a solution. I just turned on my vpn. I was connected to Norway. the application that I used is "usa vpn"

[aranmohyeddin]

I'm from Iran. I had the same problem but I could access http://termux.net/bootstrap/ from browser, I connected myself to tor and used vpn mode from orbot and then termux worked.

[meysamoo]

Hi guys I'm really confused what's going on ? 😑

I also have the same problem .
App is installed in internal storage .
I used 4G and WiFi .
I used VPN ( turbo VPN , Orbot , USA VPN ) .
I also 2 times reinstalled Termux .
I have rooted Redmi 4X ( Santoni ) with custom ROM android pie .

What should i do then ? Any idea ?🤔

[meysamoo]

This is unbelievable 😧

i just reinstalled it again and it's working properly , anyway i didn't understand what was wrong please tell us your thoughts maybe it will be useful for another person .

[sunarowicz]

I am not able to finish Termux installation on 4k AndroidTV (Android 8.0, kernel 3.10.79). When launching the app for the first time, the "Installing..." window appears, remains couple of seconds, disappears and Android home screen comes back. Every other attempt to launch Termux fails too. Screen just blinks and Android comes back. I tried last tree versions (0.73 0.74, 0.75).

Is there any idea how make Termux running on this AndroidTV? At least any hint on how to inspect what is happening.

BTW: http://termux.net/bootstrap/ is accessible from this TV.

[xeffyr]

Make sure Termux isn't installed on "external storage" or something like this.

[sunarowicz]

Make sure Termux isn't installed on "external storage" or something like this.

Thanks for reply. No, it is not. There is no external storage in this TV set. Just internal. BTW according to Android application info Termux occupies some 40MB on storage. But I cannot find it anywhere. Tried to find "com.termux" and just "termux" too, but have found nothing.

[sunarowicz]

BTW I have Termux installed and working on my phone too. According to Android info it takes 50MB on internal storage. I found its dir in Android/data/com.termux. But it is empty (no files, just one empty subdir "files"). So where is Termux installed actually?

[xeffyr]

It installs stuff to /data/data/com.termux/files/usr which inaccessible from other applications. All kinds of "external" storage (including shared storage) are unsupported due to permissions and handled file-type issues.

[sunarowicz]

Thx for explanation. But this unfortunately means I cannot inspect the installation directory in order to find the reason why it cannot finish the install on Android TV.

[xeffyr]

You can. You just need to:

1. When received dialog "installation aborted", tap somewhere outside of dialog box to dismiss it.

2. Swipe right to open the drawer.

3. In drawer, long tap on "new session" then click "failsafe".

4. You are now inside shell and can inspect the private Termux folders even in case if environment can't be bootstrapped.

---

There should be more simple way to do so (at least with Android version higher than 7) - long tap on application icon, then just click "failsafe". But I'm unsure whether installation dialog will appear or not.

[sunarowicz]

Unfortunately I do not receive any dialog "Installation aborted". Installation just silently crash at dialog "Installing...". If I run the application again, it crash immediately afterwards. I have no chance to open the drawer. And there is no "failsafe" option on long tap the app icon even though this is Android 8. I cannot get into the app in any way.

In the meanwhile I successfully installed Termux on tablet. Have it already installed and working on phone. But on AndroidTV still no luck.

[sunarowicz]

I still cannot install Termux on Android TV (running on TCL), here is the logcat output during Termux installation:

After installation I do allow the storage permission in Android apps settings. I already know it needs that but do not asks itself for. Then I run Termux for the first time after installation, concat output follows:

Any idea on where could be the problem?

[xeffyr]

Your log doesn't show anything what can cause a problem. Execute logcat without grep.

[sunarowicz]

OK, I followed your recommendation and it seems the problem has been located. This is the crash report that has happened during the first Termux run after installation.

The Termux version is 0.75. But as I wrote earlier the two previous versions crashes too.

[xeffyr]

You have

java.lang.SecurityException: ConnectivityService: Neither user 10088 nor current process has android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE.

So I guess we just need to add permission android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE to Termux app.

[sunarowicz]

Hopefully yes. Seems to be specific to Android TV or just to the TCL manufacturer, because I hadn't this issue on any other (non-android TV) device.

I am available for testing the fixed version.

[xeffyr]

I created fixed apk: https://api.cirrus-ci.com/v1/artifact/task/6329343940231168/output/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk

Uninstall previous one before installing this.

[sunarowicz]

Tested that and it finishes installation and works as expected.

Thanks a lot!

[nikhil3752]

I am also having the same issue on Xiaomi note 7 with miui global 10.3.7 update.

Some of the things that i tried and have not worked are as follows.

1.To uninstall and install termux from play-store multiple times.
2.Install previous versions of the app but with no success.
3.The fixed apk provided above by xeffyr.
4.Used vpn and proxy with no luck.

By opening the failsafe as xeffyr suggested.
The logfile is as follows.

@nikhil3752 You messed up permissions with root. Now you will know that playing with root shell doesn't end with anything good.

ContextImpl: Failed to ensure /data/user/0/com.termux/shared_prefs: mkdir failed: EACCES (Permission denied)

ContextImpl: Failed to ensure /data/user/0/com.termux/cache: mkdir failed: EACCES (Permission denied)

Luckily that only Termux dir permissions are messed, otherwise you would end with bootloop.

Now do as root rm -rf /data/user/0/com.termux.

I encountered a similar issue. I tracked its root cause to be SSL errors in the network connection due to my having disabled many of the built in certificates in the android system settings.

I encountered a similar issue,

This could be so easily fixed if instead of aborting it would allow install from local. Seems no one has an issue downloading the required zip file, I have bootstrap-aarch64.zip but Termux - no idea where to put it. It wants it over the internet. Which is 100% accessible.

This could be so easily fixed if instead of aborting it would allow install from local.

Latest Termux versions for Android 7.0 and higher install bootstraps from local (they are embedded into APK file).

Termux for Android 5 will never have offline installer since its support is ended since 01.01.2020.

Possibility of installing through Internet (old Termux versions) will be disabled soon as we need to free certain amount of bandwidth.

It wants it over the internet. Which is 100% accessible.

If you have problems with bootstrap, problem may not be with Internet:

• You are trying to install app on external storage. This happens on some devices for some reason, however Termux does not support to be moved on external storage.
• You have messed up /data/data/com.termux with root.
