I’ve had my hardware installed for around 18 months but it’s never been connected to wifi and i’ve never completed the setup before. When I came to it today to finally set it up I have two errors. Elec: Error, Heat: Error. I tried pressing the button on the front of the emonPi but it wouldn’t cycle through the options. I turned it off and turned it back on to reboot it. I get the same errors but now I can cylcle through the settings. I have plugged it into my wifi router.
When it gets to Ethernet, it says: NOT CONNECTED. I enable the wifi to Yes and can see the network on my mobile phone or my laptop. I connect to the emomPi network and enter the address 192.168.42.1 and I have tried http://emompi.local but this is as far as I can go.
I keep getting: Fatal error: Uncaught mysqli_sql_exception: Connection refused in /var/www/emoncms/index.php:79 Stack trace: #0 /var/www/emoncms/index.php(79): mysqli->__construct() #1 {main} thrown in /var/www/emoncms/index.php on line 79
When I go back to the emomPi, the screen setting is completely frozen on whatever option I’ve left it on and no matter how many times I press that little button it will not move to the next option. I have to unplug it and reset the whole operation. But still I can never get into the next screen to connect the device to my wifi.
Please help me!
