Settings not saved on RPi

[mvveelen]

Hi,

after months of not playing with Dashticz and moving my Domoticz setup to an RPi3, I'm trying to pick up from where I left.

Now, I see one can use the Settings wheel to adjust some settings. But, on my setup the settings aren't saved. I couldn't find anything in the wiki about his, so I'm asking here: what am I forgetting?

I CHMOD'ed CONFIG.js to 777, and installed Dashticz using GIT. Any tips?

@mvveelen: settings will only be saved if you have PHP running.

[mvveelen]

Is this in the Wiki? For the RPi?

[HansieNL]

You can find instructions to install webserver with PHP here: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentati ... r/nginx.md
Be sure to make the config.js writable.

[mvveelen]

Installed NGINX and PHP7, and the CONFIG.JS was (is) already writable. It seems that this didn't do the job unfortunately.

Can you try the following and make pi owner of the html folder:
$ sudo chown www-data:www-data /var/www/html
$ sudo chmod 775 /var/www/html
$ sudo usermod -a -G www-data pi

The file config.js should at least have file permission 646

Tried this, but it's not saved. Am I the only one or are others having the same issues?

[Gianni]

i got the same problem.

New folder on WWW
chmod 777 config.js
but i cannot save my settings with the gear method.
I edit my config.js manual but i cannot get i full working.

@Gianni: You have set config['auto_positioning'] = 0; , so you have to add the blocks, columns and screens to your config.js yourself. How to do that can you find in the wiki https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Dashticz_V2_-_Positioning

@Gianni: You have set config['auto_positioning'] = 0; ,/url]

As you can see the radio button (mnm) is way to small.
And if i push the button it opened a web stream what is good but i dont need the popup so i need to find how to start the stream docked

but now i hijacked some other thread i will look further or open a new topic later.
But the point is that when i changed something in the settings with the gear button and i refresh dashticz the setting are back to default so it's not written to de CONFIG.js

grts Gianni
