@michaing I just created this new post for the installation of TunerStudio Dash [EFI Analytics TunerStudio TS Dash set up instructions](https://www.tunerstudio.com/index.php/products/ts-dash/133-ts-dash-setup) I have read that it can be challenging if not impossible on the zero 2 due to memory? But I haven’t seen anyone trying it on DietPi yet. Hopefully we can make it work together (I am not very experienced and probably need some help) 1.) I installed Java [Missing Signed-By in the sources.list(5) entry for 'https://deb.debian.org/debian' - #13 by MichaIng](https://dietpi.com/forum/t/missing-signed-by-in-the-sources-list-5-entry-for-https-deb-debian-org-debian/24166/13) as you suggested here. I only have read that TS Dash likes the older version openjdk-8-jdk. I understand this has reached EOL and might be outdated information. ```auto root@DietPi:~# java -version openjdk version "21.0.8" 2025-07-15 LTS OpenJDK Runtime Environment Temurin-21.0.8+9 (build 21.0.8+9-LTS) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Temurin-21.0.8+9 (build 21.0.8+9-LTS, mixed mode, sharing) ``` 2.) Installing Wiring Pi following these instructions: ```auto http://wiringpi.com/wiringpi-updated-to-2-52-for-the-raspberry-pi-4b/ ``` …which are outdated Next approach: ```auto # fetch the source sudo apt install git git clone https://github.com/WiringPi/WiringPi.git cd WiringPi # build the package ./build debian mv debian-template/wiringpi-3.x.deb . # install it sudo apt install ./wiringpi-3.x.deb ``` ```auto root@DietPi:/home# cd WiringPi root@DietPi:/home/WiringPi# ./build debian ./build: 92: dpkg-architecture: not found version:3.16 architecture: ./build: 94: envsubst: not found root@DietPi:/home/WiringPi# ls build debian-template examples newVersion README.md version.h COPYING.LESSER devLib gpio People reinstall wiringPi debian documentation INSTALL pins VERSION wiringPiD root@DietPi:/home/WiringPi# ./build wiringPi Build script ===================== WiringPi Library sudo: make: command not found ``` ---

> [@domtec](#): > > 2.) Installing Wiring Pi following these instructions: `wiringpi.com` has been shut down. It is still maintained but by another team. Better install up-to-date WiringPi via `dietpi-software`: ```auto dietpi-software install 70 ``` That works also on Odroids and Orange Pi SBCs. Or recent instruction from its source code repository (here the one for RPi only, Hardkernel and Xonlong have own repos/forks for their SBCs): [GitHub - WiringPi/WiringPi: The arguably fastest GPIO Library for the Raspberry Pi](https://github.com/WiringPi/WiringPi?tab=readme-ov-file#installing) The package from `www.efianalytics.com` might work as well on RPi, but it is a very old version, maybe not functional with the new RPi kernel stack, not sure. EDIT: Ah you tried it already. Yeah it needs to be compiled. Use `dietpi-software`, it installs the needed build tools and compiles it for you. It does the same thing, also downloads from `https://github.com/WiringPi/WiringPi` etc, just all scripted. > [@domtec](#): > > I only have read that TS Dash likes the older version openjdk-8-jdk. Just try it with Java 21. If it really requires Java 8, that would be a bummer. Not sure where it can be obtained from without compiling from source in the meantime. On their website they suggest Java 11 as well, but the latest TSDash build is from last year, so that should work on much more recent Java as well. ---

Hmm, weird, that `TSDash.properties` file is in that directory, right? It is in the archive at least, and the `TSDash.sh` you ran before checks its existence and prints another error message if it does not exist. > [@domtec](#): > > openjdk-8-jdk You can try it, but at least try Java 11, since this is also one of the “recommended” versions according to their website: ```sh apt install temurin-11-jre ``` But most likely this won’t solve it. Java applications usually do a supported Java version check internally, so you would see something like “this application supports max Java XY, you run Java AB” or something like that. ---

Okay, so one needs to navigate to `/home/tsdash/TSDash`, respectively wherever it was extracted to, else it does not find `TSDash.properties`. But when inside the directory it does find that file. So the “registration file” and “user properties” seems to be something else it is missing in that directory. At this point I am certain Java 21 works just fine, but something else is missing. Checking their image … ---

Nope no idea. Their image is a mess, with \>600 MiB of system logs alone from like months. Looks like someone just packages a personal image mid production 😅. I do not see where TSDash itself is started, to see whether it expects an argument or so. On that image, all EFI Analytics software is installed, also TunerStudio itself etc ![image](https://dietpi.com/forum/uploads/default/original/2X/8/8dfe4c13d341e283aa48100769308929b6eb1806.png) ![image](https://dietpi.com/forum/uploads/default/original/2X/a/aec8291e02584713ec1724e33736ed49b66b292a.png) Maybe this is needed? The description does not say anything clear about it, just that TunerStudio GUI will find TSDash automatically or so. Does it has some help output? ```sh cd /home/tsdash/TSDash java -jar TSDash.jar --help ``` > [@domtec](#): > > it’s not looking in the correct location: > > ```auto > Looking in: /usr/lib/jvm/. > > ``` It just looks inside the current directory, and you were in `/usr/lib/jvm` at first. Hence `cd /home/tsdash/TSDash` is neaded first. Or execute their shell script, which navigates there automatically. But doesn’t change something that it expects other configs as well, which are not present in that archive. ```sh /home/tsdash/TSDash/TSDash.sh --help ``` Looks like you need to talk to someone who actively uses this software. See, here is a forum where the developer seems to be active: [Tuner Studio - Megasquirt Support Forum (MSEXTRA)](https://www.msextra.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=122) So you have Java and WiringPi functional, TSDash extracted, but it cannot find the registration file and some user properties: ```auto Registration file not found. 19/09/2025, 18:43:42 :Debug: Unable to load user properties, looking in: /home/tsdash/TSDash/. ``` I guess there is some more setup required that is not explained on their website. ---

thanks for trying so hard. I was just trying again to reproduce it. I have to be in the TSDash folder and call java. But when I do that then java can’t find any files. It can find the TSDash.jar when I am calling it out of the java folder, but then looks for TSDash.properties where I am calling it from. I need to be in the TSDash folder and get java to open TSDash.jar how do I do that? when I am in the TSDash folder then it can’t find any files. but when I am in the java folder then it can find the TSDash.jar but will be looking for the TSDash.properties in the java folder … executing out of the java folder: It is looking for the TSDash.properties inside the java folcer ```auto root@DietPi:/usr/lib/jvm/temurin-8-jre-arm64/bin# java -jar /home/tsdash/TSDash/TSDash.jar Jar Name:TSDash.jar ERROR loading TSDash.properties java.io.FileNotFoundException: TSDash.properties (No such file or directory) at java.base/java.io.FileInputStream.open0(Native Method) at java.base/java.io.FileInputStream.open(Unknown Source) at java.base/java.io.FileInputStream.(Unknown Source) at java.base/java.io.FileInputStream.(Unknown Source) at p.a.c(Unknown Source) at p.a.d(Unknown Source) at p.a.c(Unknown Source) at p.a.c(Unknown Source) at p.a.a(Unknown Source) at p.a.f(Unknown Source) at p.a.h(Unknown Source) at p.a.c(Unknown Source) at p.a.c(Unknown Source) at p.a.a(Unknown Source) at p.a.t(Unknown Source) at p.a.d(Unknown Source) at p.a.c(Unknown Source) at p.a.c(Unknown Source) at p.a.a(Unknown Source) at ecuhubdash.EcuHubDash.main(Unknown Source) Looking in: /usr/lib/jvm/temurin-8-jre-arm64/bin/.

> [@domtec](#): > > when I am in the TSDash folder then it can’t find any files. Yes, as said, some other setup steps are missing, or maybe TunerStudio itself not sure. It is correct to be in the `TSDash` directory. Whether you are in the Java directory or not wouldn’t change something about the other missing files, these are no Java files, but TSDash setup/config files it is missing. Also the Java version is unrelated to the issue. [Next page](https://dietpi.com/forum/t/setting-up-tunerstudio-ts-dash-efi-analytics-on-raspberry-pi-zero-2-w/24177.md?page=2)
