Domoticz

Hello,

I'm trying to repair my database that has lots of records and became huge due to a specific plugin.

I then used the procedure https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Troublesh ... database_2 but as soon as I try executing sqlite .restore command, no such command found... Looks pretty surprising, I then tried ".help", and help shows there is indeed no . recover command.

I'm using
SQLite 3.27.2 2019-02-25 16:06:06 bd49a8271d650fa89e446b42e513b595a717b9212c91dd384aab871fc1d0alt1
zlib version 1.2.11
gcc-8.3.0

Trying to upgrade and install says the last version is already installed "3.27.2-3+deb10u1"

I'm running Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster) on a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Rev 1.2

Any hint?

Thanks

Does anybody encounters this issue?

.recover is available from SQLite v 3.29 So you need to update SQLite.

Thanks!

When trying to get update, system says I di have the last version, maybe it is necessary to upgrade rpi os too?

It seems so as updating SQLite on Buster is not that easy.
Be aware that if you run python plugins you have to go to the beta version of Domoticz as Bullseye giving issues with python plugins on stable 2022.1

Thanks!

I'll then wait for 2022.2 that should hopefully be available soon.

You can look at this: https://linuxhint.com/install-set-up-sq ... pberry-pi/, Method 2. That will give you the latest version if you first modify the URL for the wget command, look at https://sqlite.org/download.html for the correct URL (you need the tar.gz for "C source code as an amalgamation") currently version 3.39: https://sqlite.org/2022/sqlite-autoconf-3390400.tar.gz

This is becoming ridiculously tedious. At least put a warning in the wiki.

What is "this"? And what wiki?

"This" being that the database recovery process (why am I even doing this anyway, I have 2 UPS's on my machine, so improper shutdown is not an issue) does not work on Buster as you cannot update Sqlite to a version with the .recover command, as described in the "wiki" here: https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Troublesh ... database_2 and mentioned in the first comment in this post (see above).

Ok, sqlite3 version added to instruction
