Problem with domoticz db after restoring from backup

[abaratian]

Hi
I made a backup from old windows server and restored on new one. After restore my events don't work any more and i get the following in log

Code: Select all

2019-05-18 15:29:10.733 Status: dzVents: Error (2.4.19): There was a problem writing the storage values
2019-05-18 15:29:10.734 Status: dzVents: Error (2.4.19): ...ram Files (x86)\Domoticz\dzVents\runtime\persistence.lua:24: C:\Program Files (x86)\Domoticz\scripts\dzVents\data/__data_Script #2.lua: Permission denied

2019-05-18 15:29:55.080 (Xiaomi Gateway) Temp (Downstairs Storage Temperature)

The interesting part is that my IPs are (and have been) from the 192.168... segment. This is a very simple setup. only two dzvents events and a xiaomi gateway and couple of temp sensors.

what can the problem be?

From what I see in the logfile, it looks like there are 1 or more dzVents scripts stored in the database. At domoticz startup or when a script is modified these scripts will be written to the OS level. (here to C:\Program Files (x86)\Domoticz\scripts\dzVents\generated_scripts\Script #2.lua
When you look in that script you will see something in the data = section (near the beginning of the script) and that part tries to write something to C:\Program Files (x86)\Domoticz\scripts\dzVents\data/__data_Script #2.lua but fail because of a permission problem.
Most likely you will find in that script also the domoticz.openURL commmand trying to access 172.16.0.30:8086 (influx ?)

The problem with your other events not working is related. They are not in the restored database.

Thanks for the info.
Ultimately the problem was with bad permissions on "C:\Program Files (x86)\Domoticz\scripts\dzVents\generated_scripts" which prevented dzvents from saving the scripts. Changing permissions and re-saving the events solved everything.
