Local emoncms processes and feeds lost after change to a process - Help please

Emoncms
1

Hi,
I was making changes to a virtual feed, which obviously wasn’t a good change as it caused my browser window to stop updating.
Via another tab I had the solar with divert app running, this had also stopped updating.
When trying to navigate to any part of the site it did nothing for over 5mins.
I resorted to powering off and on my emonHub. I have since shutdown and restarted emonhub again and when looking at the Inputs page it shows process list as “Wait…”
image

When accessing the feeds page it never loads

Whilst logged on and running “top” any change of web page sends an “apache2” to start using 90%+ of a core:
pi@emonpi(ro):data$ ps -flp 10618
F S UID PID PPID C PRI NI ADDR SZ WCHAN STIME TTY TIME CMD
5 R www-data 10618 1524 13 80 0 - 88881 - 14:32 ? 00:00:34 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start

I’m guessing that the config surrounding the processes and feeds is in someway knackered, which is creating these problems.

How can I determine what it believes are active processes and feeds? Is there a config file that it is stored in?

Any help and guidance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Clive.

Hello Clive, o dear! This sounds very similar to:
https://community.openenergymonitor.org/t/no-inputs-and-var-log-full-within-1h-of-boot/5198/11

Do you remember what change you where making to virtual feeds?

3

Can you copy here the output of:

emoncms/input/list.json
4

What happens if you restart apache2? and then remove the virtual feeds just created?
Did you also recently update emoncms?

Hi Trystan,

I was trying to get a measure for a delta of exported vs imported each day, to give a running day total kWhd. I had a “daily” virtual feed with a source of Input kWhd and subtracted the Export kWhd (I’ve converted this to a +ve feed). I’d set this up yesterday and it worked well for the day, then this morning I noticed that it hadn’t reset at the beginning of the day, hence added something like a “- feed” (I can’t remember the specific) as the text suggested that it works around the manipulation of daily stats.

When I look at my local emoncms (http://192.168.1.22/input/list.json) it gives a "Not Found

The requested URL /input/list.json was not found on this server."

I’ll take a read through that other post now.

I’m seeing similar messages to the other topic with disguarded RX frames from RFM2Pi.

Let me find out how to restart Apache and will let you know. The emonhub has been rebooted twice today, hence guess it will provide a similar response.

Sorry, I had a dimwhitted moment earlier, with the correct URL (http://192.168.1.22/emoncms/input/list.json) the output is:

In response to your other queries, I last updated emonHub 14th Aug 2017.

I restarted Apache (sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart), then opened this URL /emoncms/input/list.json, the response was immediate, then I opened /emoncms/input/view and then click on the spanner of an input and see:

image1108×692 41.4 KB

Then in relation to the other thread, I looked at the MySQL DB and am also missing the inputs table:

I prefer text inputs, but cannot work out how to show in a mono spaced font, hence the interesting look!

That should be “input” not “inputs”

Can you also check the feed folder permissions with

ls -la /var/lib/emoncms/php*

Hi Paul,

I don’t have a /var/lib/emoncms directory, I do have an emonhub, which I guess may have impact!? I’ve searched the whole thing for emon*/php and only found one thing:

pi@emonpi(ro):var$ sudo find / -ls | grep "emon[a-z]*/php"
141928    4 -rwxr-xr-x   1 pi       pi             95 Oct 30  2016 /var/www/emoncms/php-info.php
10

Sorry force of habit, that should have been

ls -la /var/lib/php*
11

Hi Paul,

What do I need to do to get the follow to format prettily? I presume that you’re tidying it up for me?

pi@emonpi(ro):var$ ls -la /var/lib/php*
total 16
drwxr-xr-x  4 root root 4096 Jan 26  2016 .

use 3 back ticks like so

```

on the lines before and after the text.

I expected to see an out put like so

where are your data folders supposed to be? what are the paths set in /var/www/emoncms/settings.php eg

https://github.com/emoncms/emoncms/blob/master/default.settings.php#L57-L64

[EDIT}

Ahhh! ok problem solved, they are in a different location on an emonPi

So the command should actually be

ls -la /home/pi/data/php*

we’ll get there eventually perhaps…

Well that looks in order, the feeds are all there in both the mysql feed table and in the data folders, and the permissions/ownership is right.

One more thing to try since the feeds apparently cannot be found hence the “does not exist or was deleted” messgae, when you recently updated, was that to remedy this or do you suspect it may be the trigger?

Did you need to replace the settings.php? If yes, did you copy default.settings.php or default.emonpi.settings.php?

Either way can you confirm your emoncms is looking for the feed data in the right place ie are the paths in your emoncms/settings.php still like so?

15

Looks like mysql input, feeds table and feed data are all ok. Is your emoncms feed list showing blank?

Could you try

emoncms/feed/list.json

My hunch is that there is something amiss in the redis cache of the feed list data at this point…
A redis flush might sort it, or it may thow an error if redis is not updating correctly.

Worth checking the settings.php though as @pb66 suggested

16

I’ve never (knowingly) changed the settings.php (I bought the emontx and emonhub and used the GUI to config them)
I ran a diff between a “default.emonpi.settings.php” and “settings.php” in /var/www/emoncms and it showed no changes

The settings are as displayed in Paul’s quote.

However, I only have a phpfina and phptimeseries in /home/pi/data. Should I create a phpfiwa dir with the same perms as the other two?

pi@emonpi(ro):data$ ls -ld /home/pi/data/phpfiwa/ /home/pi/data/phpfina/ /home/pi/data/phptimeseries/
ls: cannot access /home/pi/data/phpfiwa/: No such file or directory
drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data root 1024 Sep 25 08:00 /home/pi/data/phpfina/
drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data root 1024 Aug 17 08:44 /home/pi/data/phptimeseries/
pi@emonpi(ro):data$

I’ve left the emoncms/feed/list.json running for 5+ minutes and Firefox still only shows me the swirling loading icon and nothing else.

I found another one of your comments suggesting “redis-cli flushall”, is that the correct command here as well?

17

phpfiwa is being phased out AFAIK so the lack of a folder would only be a concern if you had old feeds to import or you wanted to go against the flow and enable the disabled phpfiwa feed engine in emoncms.

The spinner on the feeds page is an issue, is there any info if you hit F12 in your browser? (actually I’m not sure if dev tools is F12 in Firefox)

@TrystanLea has just helped find a issue with a input table on the No Inputs and /var/log full within 1h of boot thread, perhaps you could do the same checks focusing on the feed table.

sudo redis-cli flushall

is worth trying, the same can also be done from within emoncms on the admin page, there is a flush button on the right of the redis section.

[EDIT] Actually, since you can query your input and feed table from the command line it looks like your mysql tables are ok, hopefully @TrystanLea will have a further ideas if flushing redis doesn’t work.

18

Sorry, busy day with work.

Thanks for the pointers @pb66 and @TrystanLea

To answer a previous question, I ran the update in August to see what extra little goodies you had added.

I ran the redis-cli flushall, and no noticeable change.

I took a look at /var/log/apache2/error.log and found a load of segmentation fault messages. I tried opening emoncms/feed/list.json and, you see an apache2 chew up 90+% of a core for 40 seconds before the seg fault, after 10 attempts the browser shows a “The connection was reset” message:

I’m very much beyond my domain of knowledge, but tried changing the Apache log level up until I got to trace8 and nothing looks to be too out of whack (to an untrained eye):

This is the first time I’m delving into the processes and working of emoncms and am NOT clear on what works and where, hence appreciate all your help and guidance. But also apologise for the potentially daft questions etc :wink:

This is identical to the problem that I encountered prior to this post.
The error messages were the same, and after failing to resolve, I resorted to an earlier backup, only to meet the same segmentation problem again a week later, so I eventually re-formatted and rebuilt my system in raspbian stretch.

So, yes this appears to be an issue rather than a glitch.
