Hi, 3 of our recently purchased EmonPi’s are stuck in Raspberry Pi Booting. I understand it is an SD card issue, do replacements get sent out? Thanks John

OK - thanks. - Turned out easier than expected. I made a new card with the Oct2019 version. Restoring my backup brought back my feeds and graphs and what not. I had duplication of devices so I cleaned up. My backup tarball only had a database dump and a few files - didn’t include the phpfine an…

[image] Elbow: Turned out easier than expected. We do try. [image] Elbow: My backup tarball only had a database dump and a few files - didn’t include the phpfine and phptimeseries directories. Which is odd. [image] Elbow: it seems that the ordinary update process in the web inter…

[image] borpin: Google is your friend Raspberry Pi Documentation - Raspberry Pi OS I recall reading a thread some time back where updating the OS caused some things to break. Is that still the case, or has that become a non-issue? i.e was that a problem with Jessie but no longer an issue wi…

[image] Bill.Thomson: I recall reading a thread some time back where updating the OS caused some things to break. I have a feeling there was an issue with Stretch and MQTT at one point, but I’m reasonably sure it is fine now.

Hmmm - seems like I’m in space trouble on the root partition generally. I deleted that failed backup tarball and my root is still Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/root 4114268 3266496 645028 84% / 4G space in total. 3.26G used. 1G in /var: 127M in /var…

[image] Elbow: I see that the backup is made in /opt/openergymonitor/data which is on the small root partition rather than on the /var/opt/emoncms mount Yes, there is a change being made in GitHub to correct that. Moving backup export and uploads location to /var/opt/emoncms/backup · Issue #5…

I did mkdir /var/opt/emoncms/backups chown pi:pi /var/opt/emoncms/backups Then in /opt/emoncms/modules/backup/config.cfg I made it so: # Destination location of exported backup .tar.gz - Must be writable #backup_location="/opt/openenergymonitor/data" backup_location="/var/opt/emoncms/backups" an…

[image] Elbow: I did post a quick look via du The command I pointed to will tell you which files, not directories are the big hitters. Still think something amiss to be that full.
