Weekly auto start time comes and goes without valves opening.

I can run each valve manually with no problem.

Rebooted RPi

Any ideas. I’m sure I am missing something simple.

Thanks,
Kevin

That date, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00, in the log line (second to last line) indicates a default unix time.

Has the Raspberry Pi been set to the correct time zone as well as the time zone setting on the program’s options page?

More importantly, have you checked the Pi’s network connection?

Hi Dan,

Network connection is fine, as I have been entering the various program OS commands etc (running valves manually) via my laptop or iPhone.

I’ll check the RPi time and post the results.

Thanks,
Kevin

Dan,

Date, time, and year appear to be correct on my RPi.

Here in St. Louis at the time i checked it 16:04. We are on CDT which puts us at -5 UTC

16:05 + 5 = 21:04

RPi time

Kevin,

It’s strange that the device time shown in your listing was correct but the log showed the default time.

The only thing I can think of at this point is to try ruining a test program and see if it happens again. It may have been a momentary glitch.

Just to keep it apples to apples from my previous post, here is the cut and paste. Manual log has the correct time as well.
