I think I just figured out why the programs were not running.

Apparently, the system clock in the Pi does not match the clock that shows in the interval program.

When I manually set time in the pi, the program started running.

Now I need to figure out why they are not in sync.

Any help out there?

I’m having the exact same issue. However, I completely reloaded the OSPI interval program last night and I’m still having the issue. Is that the update you were referring to?

Getting closer.

I get the loop back IP idea now. However it’s still not working.
So I went into the sprinklers directory and deleted the config.php file so that it would start as a new config.

I browse to 192.168.1.50:8080 and can see the interval setup page. It seems to work fine. See this image:

Then I browse to 192.168.1.50:80 and get to this page:
[attachment=0:8ybxrqiy]New Install_Page_1.jpg[/attachment:8ybxrqiy]

I fill in the 127.0.0.1:8080 loopback IP with the password I used and try to submit/save and it pops up a quick message in a box saying that the config cannot be saved.

Then i tried 127.0.0.1:80 and the config saved and took me to the login page. I log in and I’m back to where I was before. The status page is blank and I can’t control the system

BTW, I check the config.php file and is indeed saved in the sprinklers directory.

What am I doing wrong this time?

Thanks again,

Correction to previous post:

IP address used was 192.168.1.50:8080

Okay, this is the part where my head explodes:)

My first goal is to get a good desktop browser app.

I tried using your link : http://rayshobby.net/apps/sprinklers/ using both Chrome and Firefox from a Mac Pro.

I plugged in 192.168.1.50:808 as my IP address
and used opendoor as the password

Just spins and never delivers a web page. Could it be that you most use a mobile device?

Second question: what does it mean to run it on the Pi? Run what on the Pi. I thought the program and station parameters were already stored in the Pi and the web interface merely accessed that data.
I did follow the instructions on Github, but that’s where I got lost on which server or device was in control.

Thanks for the continued help and patience.

So just to be clear…

Load Raspian – I’ve done this and it’s working properly

Load Interval program – OSPi.py – I’ve done this and made the modifications to make it run automatically.

When I browse to 192.1.168.50:8080 I can see the interval demo:

Now my last question is: Should apps like SprinklerAce and the Mobile Opensprinkler app just work?

The interface presented by OSPI.py seems a bit clunky, although functional. I’ve tested that I can manually turn on each GPIO port.
