Everything is set up great…but no auto watering happening (manual mode OK)

I have an OsPi running the latest software…I am not sure when this happened, but no watering is happening at all for any scheduled program. I can run the scheduled program manually, and all stations run as they are supposed to….the calendar shows that a program should run….but no automated program runs on the specified time. The system had been running just fine, so I really don’t know what changed (maybe a power cycle)….but really, everything looks to be fine.

Is there some special process that gets called to run an automated program that is different from a manual program run, possibly?

I rebooted the OsPi and the same behavior exists.

1) Please report your firmware version. We only support the official OpenSprinkler Unified Firmware, and unfortunately can’t provide support for third-party firmwares.

2) If manual works and programs don’t work, check your device time to see if it’s correct.

Thanks! If I log in to the web interface it says:

App Version: 1.4.10
Firmware: 2.1.6 (1)
Hardware Version: OSPi – AC

The web interface has the correct date and time. If I ssh into the Pi, I also see the correct time.

Some other possibilities: have you set it to use weather (either Zimmerman algorithm or auto rain delay)? If so, it could be that the weather algorithm returns 0% watering, preventing programs from running.
