LCD Frozen

Tim_Meadows · 2019-02-11T17:20:52.398Z

Hi,

I recently updated my emonPI from the Administration pages. I think it completed successfully, and everything seems to be working - except for the LCD, which is stuck saying Raspberry PI Booting…

As I said, everything else (emonCMS / Node Red) seems to be working. Just wondering if it is a quick fix, or if it is the prompt I need to upgrade to the latest emonSD release…

Thanks

Tim

I am encountering a similar frozen “Raspberry Pi Booting…” message. At other times, it gets stuck at the “Ethernet YES [IP address]” message. This started a while back on the 2016 SD version.

Upgrading to the 2018 SD version did not resolve the issue.
I checked the wiring between the LCD and EmonPI board: this is OK.
There is an anomaly in the Server Information section of the admin section, where it states “emonPiLCD - Active - Exited”, which I assume the last should state “Running” if all would be OK.

Now I am not sure if this is a hardware issue (LCD driver, …) or a software issue - but would be glad for any help to sort this out.

marcneelen:

I think this is the default page after a boot. [edit] do you mean the button does not work?

marcneelen:

I am encountering a similar frozen “Raspberry Pi Booting…” message.

I think this is a different issue and I have seen it happen after a first boot. Part of the process results in a reboot but for some reason it shuts down completely but does not power off so the LCD stays lit. Annoying as you are not sure if it is safe to remove the power and reboot it. I have no advice other than if it is like that for an hour, it has probably done what it needs so removing the power is a safe thing to do!

marcneelen:

“emonPiLCD - Active - Exited”

No it shouldn’t do that.

Do you have SSH access? Could you do a

 systemctl status emonPiLCD.service

And post the result (as text) please.

Hi Brian,

This is what I get when logging in through SSH:

Is it running fine now?

marcneelen · 2019-04-22T16:51:43.964Z

Yes, it seems ok now!

marcneelen · 2019-04-23T09:08:33.159Z

Hi Brian,

Don’t know what exactly did the trick yesterday, but a few reboots and running the “systemctl status emonPiLCD.service” apparently managed to unblock the LCD. The Server Information section (in admin) no longer lists “Exited” but “emonPiLCD - Active - Running”. All fine now.

Thanks!
