Hello Guys
I decided to move to R-Pi from windows and got the Pi going but now it get the following error in the Admin page:
Writer Daemon is not running, start it at ~/scripts/feedwriter
When I try to muanlly start the daemon with :
sudo php /var/www/emoncms/scripts/feedwriter.php
I get the following two errors :
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method PHPFiwa::post_bulk_prepare() in /var/www/emoncms/Modules/feed/engine/RedisBuffer.php on line 213
Fatal error: Call to undefined method PHPFiwa::post_bulk_prepare() in /var/www/emoncms/Modules/feed/engine/RedisBuffer.php on line 213
Here is a Screen shot of the Admin Page
Where can I look to find what is tripping emonpi I suspect that it has something to do with the input feeds.
Best regards
Paul
Hi Paul,
You should be able to restart the feedwriter using the OS tools. I suspect you’re using the latest emonSD image in which case you should be able to run:
sudo systemctl restart feedwriter.service
If that doesn’t work, do
sudo systemctl status feedwriter.service
and post the result here.

Hello Bruce
Thank You for the response. I remember attempting to restart the service, but also got an error. I eventually gave up and reset the emonpi again and started from scratch and the error was gone. The only thing that I can think that could have had an impact was the fact that I restored my Win - emon server MYSQL and data. Running in low write is suspected that something in the sql was not happy with that plan.
Another thing that “helped” was disabling low write and redis in the settings page.
Since then, I have created an HDD boot with emon Pi. Should I now disable low write? Are there any performance advantages if I stay with low write mode on emonpi?
Regards
Paul
Hi Paul,
OK, not worth debugging further then
There shouldn’t be any performance penalty or advantage to using low-write mode.
Bruce
Yes I agree not worth pursuing.
