Okay, so I moved the current install dir to a tarball and recloned the program. This gave me a fresh start on 2.1.4.
Everything resetup fine, as expected. The new unified installer is awesome.
I am remote right now (at work) and wanted to test it out. I ran the test all station program, 1 minute a zone from my phone and then closed the browser. Since I have remote access to the OSBO, I ran a tail -f on todays log. All the zones cycled (in the log) as they should have on the minute mark. If it was in the log, I can only assume that the zones switched correctly.
Sadly, it is supposed to rain for the next couple of days, so I wont see the system start on, but it should at least log a rain delay.
I am very optimisitic that the re install of the software fixed the issue.
The program did not start again this morning. Although, this is a little different circumstance. My normal times are 20 minutes per zone, and the weather adjustment was at 4%. So, the time would have been less than a minute. Nothing was in the log, and nothing ran.
I pulled out my phone while I was eating my cereal and put in a manual program for 5 minutes a zone, and hit go. This was using Google Chrome on iOS. I closed out the browser and continued to eat. I looked up, and about 8 minutes had gone by and my first zone was still on. I opened the web browser again and zone 1 immediatley shut down, and zone 2 started with 2 minutes left on the clock. So I closed the browser and watched. The zone continued to run, until I opened the web browser again, then the zones switched.
It seems like all the timing and signals are being sent via the client, and not queued on the OpenSprinkler controller, or somehow cached.
I am going to tar up the current install and reinstall. The git pull wasn’t getting me to 2.1.4 from 2.1.3. I will redownload and resetup everything to see if it helps.
I did a git pull almost immediately after I posted. It did update. Although, the main program did not run this morning.
Sunrise is being pulled correctly, as is the timezone. The timezone and date is also set correctly in Ubuntu using NTP. Under weather control, my wunderground key works is working correctly as I can log into my account their and see the requests.
I am going to delete the main program, and recreate it to see what happens.
edit: I just deleted and recreated the program. Under the program preview it show it will run tomorrow at the sunrise-offset time.
THe OS processes has stayed running, but I have encountered another issue. I will start a new thread.
I have. I did the install just two days ago.
As an update it seems that it has been running fine for a couple of days, which is totally okay with me. I wish I knew what cause that a few times, but as of right now it has been up and stable.
Different issue though that I may start a new thread on. If I use the OpenSprinkler App on my iPhone and manually start a zone. Then close the app (double tap home and swipe the app away) the zone that I started will not shut off. If I go back into the app after the time has expired for the zone, the zone will shut down immediately.
Ray, if there is any testing, or code or anything you wnat to have me try, let me know. I would be more than happy to help.
