/var/log full with errors from emoncms.log

[brandock (Brandon Baldock)]

Thanks, all. Things are working better now. There was a combination of things going on, all having to do with some old feeds that came in when I moved to my current setup.

@Paul

How many node ID’s are you using? The log is saying that you have exceeded the default of 32, is that so?

I don’t have 32 nodes. My emonCMS server subscribes to an older version of emonHub right now, from when it would add a numbered node when it had a packet that seemed to be for that node. I’ve noticed that over time I seem to collect “garbage” nodes. I needed to go delete those.

@Paul

As for deleting the logs, I don’t use an emonpi, but it looks as though they are written to tmpfs (RAM) so a reboot??

You are correct. A reboot did the trick.

@TrystanLea

if you can fix both the nodes and this error at least your log will only fill up slowly.

Once I got rid of the extraneous nodes and deleted old feeds that were causing problems, the log went quiet.

If I could ask one related question …

Is it true that PHPFIWA is essentially deprecated? I read that comment from Paul in a thread a while back (below). Some of my old feeds were PHPFIWA feeds that I had created in parallel with PHPFINA so I could compare the two engines.

@pb66

phpfiwa
has been or is most likely to be depreciated, it is a multi layer version of the PHPfina

Thanks again,
Brandon
