Cannot create feed from input

Emoncms
1

Good morning.
I am using an emontx3 and an emoncms
I have just downloaded the newest emonpi image and flashed it to the SD card, I believe correctly…
However when I try and create new feeds for local recording from the inputs, which I can see updating, I get the error…Feed could not be created, undefined.
The emoncms log shows the following…

What can be done please?

Regards

Chris

nice work getting up and running. Could you confirm you are running the emonSD-03May16 image?

Could you try a reboot before making any feeds since the image performs and update on first (ever) boot, if the problem persists try a factory rest then re-create feeds:

Hi Glyn,
Yes, I am using the 3 May image.
I have performed a factory reset but the result is the same.
The emoncms log still has the Engine 1 is not supported comment in it as well. Has this got something to do with the root cause?

Regards

Chris

Hi Glyn
I just tried restarting the mqtt service and that enabled the feeds to be added. However, in the input list it is saying “wait” in the Process list and I still have the “Engine id 1 is not supported” message in the emoncms log.

Glyn,
All seems to be working now.
I downloaded the image again and this time performed all the operations using Windows…ie unzip the file and write the image to the SD card using WinflashTool. The previous image had been unzipped using Ubuntu and then flashed using Windows.

Not sure what that means but data is now being recorded from the feeds.

Regards

Chris

I’m having the same issue, I am running emonSD version: emonSD-07Nov16.

I’m reluctant to rebuild my SD card as I have quite a lot of content in Node-Red. I don’t mind losing my emon data though.

One other point - I upgraded via the ‘git pull’ method as Setup-Admin->emonBase Update didnt take me to the latest version.

I’ve deleted all of my feed configs in the “input” config menu, but if I add a new one, I get “wait…” in the List list display, and input config displays “Feedid 21 does not exists or was deleted” in red. Clicking the Feed menu just shows a constant spinning wait indicator.

Is there anything I can do? Pi (3) is on latest dist and firmware.

Bit of an old question, but did you go into the admin screen and update the databases?
