Can't create a feed

BLeenders · 2017-05-13T07:40:03.555Z

Hi all
Local install of Emoncms Low Write 9.8.4: 2017.05.01
Release emonSD-07Nov16.
Running on RPi2 with RFM69Pi module (EmonBase installation)

Nodes are correctly reported on the Input page and the values are being updated

But the feed page just shows a spinning sundial…??? even after a reboot or power down.
On the Input page, under Process List it shows “wait…” for the feeds that I created at the start but after a reboot to get the correct local time, it now just shows "wait… for those inputs.

I have re-flash the SD card many times with Win32Diskmanager and also with Etcher, no change.

A few people have reported this “ERROR|feed_model.php|EngineClass() Engine id ‘1’ is not supported.”
but I never understood how they manage to fix the problem other then re-flashing the SD card, but that did not work for me.
I am starting from scratch and do not need to use any old date or feeds.

Spend most of last week on this problem and got no-where so any support, suggestions, help or pointers would be greatly appreciated

Dear bro. according to my experience you can solve this problem with creating a new user.
hope that helps

New at all this, so where do create a new user?, Do just change My account “username and Password” to something else…!

No.
Edit setting.php file.

Edit this line:
$enable_multi_user = false;
To this:
$enable_multi_user = true;
And now you can create a new user.

Hi fubax, thanks for your help.
Did as suggested, but now on the input page for the new user none of the Node are listed.
It shows; No Inputs Created.

Your old user feeds and inputs data does not transform to new account and you will create then again.
Unfortunately my native language is not English. So it’s very hard for me to give you a step by step guide to creating and logging a new feed.
Hope someone else can.

Success, started again from scratch, loading the emonSD-07Nov16 image on a new 16Gb SD card using Etcher.
However this time I used MS edge web browsers to configure EmonCMS, inputs, feeds and Dashboard. All worked fine no problem what so ever. Then I logged in again, this time using Google Chrome and bingo the feeds page would not load a spinning sundial in the middle of the page is the result. I have seen that others have suggested that clearing the cache or browsing data, may fix this problem and they are correct, it did fix it. The feeds page now loads fine with both MS Edge or Google Chrome.
