Presence Detection script log errors
Posted: Thursday 03 January 2019 13:24
Hi,
Domoticz Beta 4.10304 on a Rpi 3B+
I want to add presence detection in Domoticz.
Since the iDetect plugin is not working for me because I have a router/firewall running pfSense,
I tried the Python script described in https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Presence_detection
This python script is working:
When the Phone is not present in the network the virtual Switch is set to OFF
When the Phone is present in the network the virtual Switch is set to ON
But When I look at the domoticz LOG I see the following error:
I think it has to do with the python version (I am running 2.7.13-2) but only the part to check if another instance of the script is running (pid)
When I check if the script work in LXTerminal I get the following message, which seems OK
Did somebody already manage to update the script without errors?
Greetzzz,
Gerben
