No Domoticz running afther restart

[Dreamcatcher2007]

Hello all,

Maybe a stupid question, for more than 7 months Domoticz 4834 was running smootly, suddely dead, okey i think SD card dead, new image and DB backup on it and it's up again !! yes..... until i do a reboot, i'm using RPI3, nothing, i can connect to de RPI with Putty, but no domoticz webpage is showing on the phone's or app, only offline !!! tried several cards and other RPI3 but can't find the problem, also manual starting with putty does nothing...... what goes wrong ? i dont know anymore, i'm not very good with Linux and so... read a lot but still i cant solve this !!

Please help

Thanks in advance

What does the logfile say?

[Dreamcatcher2007]

euuhh... maybe stupid question, where can i find the log file in winscp ? i'm looking for it ....

[Egregius]

login with ssh
cat /etc/init.d/domoticz to see the start/stop script. There you should see the location of the logfile.
Think it's /var/log/domoticz.log by default on a Pi.

What happens if you enter this:
/home/pi/domoticz/domoticz ?
Domoticz should run in a mode that it outputs everything on screen then.

[Dreamcatcher2007]

Pfffttt looked everywhere but could not find this log file, do you know what the name of the file is ? i can make a search then through the SD card

Thanks again still not working, even with another PI, powersupply SD cards, Clean install and so on pffttt

[Sneezydevil]

I think by default logging is off, you can enable it by doing this:

Code: Select all

sudo nano /etc/init.d/domoticz.sh

Then remove the # in front of the line that contains -log

Are the rights correct for the folder?

Oh and what does the following tell you?

Code: Select all

sudo /etc/init.d/domoticz.sh restart

[Dreamcatcher2007]

@ sneezydevil, i don't know not a wizzkid, i can tweak a little so what you tell me i understand, but this is an standard domoticz instalation, so debianwheezy lite, and then Domotic, or i use an older img from Domoticz doesnt matter, same problem.

For now.... i must make a new image for the 1000st time hahahaha, i won't give up, the frustrating part is that this configuration has working for about more than 6 months no changes made so i'm confussed for now.

Thanks i will come back after testing you're suggestion.

Thanks al lot all again.

New...lol

Last log seems like from /var/log/. This isn't a domoticz.log.

Anyway, couldn't find when you restored domoticz.db, directly after new image or thru the domi-website.

I suggest start over, and make sure domoticz is running after initial boot/reboot.

Check with: sudo service domoticz status
Then after that restore database thru the domo-website [as in http://your-pi-ipaddress:8080]
Then it needs to reboot !
Check again if its running... see above.

This is the log, sorry for the other one, it's the clean install, now without the db inside, updates and upgrades oke, fixed ip and so on.
I put the db in domoticz through the webinterface, never a problem with it.
So this config i can reboot and reboot and reboot it will run, but when i put the db in it, it wont start again, i will do so and post the log again, there is a critical error i saw the last time but don't know how to fix it.

And this is after a db restore... i see error but i don't know why

[Egregius]

How did you backup/restore?
How big is your database?

[Dreamcatcher2007]

hello egreguis,

i did backup with the webinterface and same to restore, did this always ! so never problems before.

The db is : 3,76 MB (3.949.568 bytes)

Thanks..

Erwin

[Egregius]

So it's not to big. What if you replace the .db file directly?
Last resort: transfer data table by table with a sql3lite explorer...

[stlaha2007]

Its probebly a record in one of the tables.

Best option, use a sqlbrowser and delete that record.

Perhaps investigate/repair it with some sort of sqllite tool.

Im used to use phpmyadmin and M$, not specific sqllite. So cant help you that way.

@Egregius: Do you know how to do this?

[Egregius]

I use Adminer 4.2.4 to access the domoticz db
Don't know how you can find the corrupt value if it isn't in the logfile.
But, maybe with some luck, it's obvious when browsing thru the tables.

[stlaha2007]

[quote="Dreamcatcher2007"][/quote]

ok message from gordonb3 is nice to know. Maybe handy to copy 'empty' tables from clean domoticz.db into failing backup-copy.

Use a tool, i here good words about Adminer, to browse your faulty db.
Check first schedules (if you have them)
Check other tables (eg with temp-sensor) as maybe a write at corruptiontime. Some weird record with a few values missing/oversized extreme value.

I'll hope you manage to find the error this way.

[Egregius]

If you mean 'timers' with schedules, isn't it on option to set them non active in the database?

[Dreamcatcher2007]

Yes thanks gordon, this is it, in first i could not delete this timer for my smokeguard, i have 12 of them, when i tried to remove my montly timer i got an error that it was not possible to do so, i decided to delete the smokeguards and saved the whole thing, and it works again !! so you're correct that it is an software problem i think, so i will run this version now for a few days and come back to tell or it still works, for now its fine thanks guys !!! have a nice weekend.
