Thanks for the help, I tried loads of setting but could not get an image any where near as good so I opted for

Code: Select all

      cam = "raspistill -w 600 -h 450 -rot 180 -ev +3  -o /home/pi/CoopControl/stills/" + DATE1 + ".jpg"

Hi, I have a problem with my script starting on boot up. If I start my script from the command prompt it works fine, if I start it from a cron job on boot I get a mysql connection error. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/pi/CoopControl/server.py", line 53, in <module> mariadb_...

Hi, I have had mysql db running on Jessie for two years without issue, two weeks ago I bought a new SD card and loaded Stretch with Mariadb and I nothing but problems. The latest one is my insert query, it worked fine before but now I get sql code error :x This my current code def loggerdb(self,mess...

smithjames0

Thanks for that, I knew it would be something simple. I had stopped mysql to try and get the privileges sorted and didn't restart it

Hi, I am at my wits end with Mariadb, I have spent the last three days trouble shooting and trying all manor of things to try and get it working correctly but with no luck. My main issue is that I cannot set privileges to the users, I have tried sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop sudo /usr/sbin/mysqld --sk...

t2.start() t3.start() t4.start() Those are all in a line, when I copied it across they moved. I was fed up before and forgot to copy the errors! It's only reading the outside temperature sensor, normally it doesn't read the Internal one but the script still works, now it's failing to read the inter...

Hi, I have a script running the door on the chicken coop, it's been working for well over a year. I had a tinker today as one of the temperature sensors wasn't working and now the whole script doesn't work :shock: I used this script to start with and built on it adding little bits, I have been throu...

Hi, I have been having issues with WIFI disconnecting, so I have this script running to check and reboot where necessary, but it's not working. For some reason the wifi stops working and the script does not reconnect or reboot. I have had a look in the syslog for when the wifi stopped working and I ...

Thanks for the replys, the raspberry lives at the bottom of the garden controlling the chicken coop door, so while it's been working fine I have left it. I will have a look at the drivers.

Thanks

Hi, I have a problem with my WIFI going to sleep, I have googled it endlessly but what every I try, fails.

Panic over, turns out the raspberry has swapped address with the Mac I am using now! I was trying to connect to myself!

Hi, I have not connected to the raspberry for some months, it currently runs headless at the bottom of the garden. I tried to connect over SSH using Terminal on the Mac as I normally do and got the following message. warning remote host identification has changed When I googled it I found using the ...

I have checked lsof | wc-1 and it's the same figure as this morning.

Might be worth checking the tail end of dmesg if it hasn't locked up. Also worth checking /var/log/syslog (and perhaps others) to see if you can see anything failing. Anything with an error is worth looking at, or there may be hints at what could be happening. Hate to say it, but a lot of random cr...

What kind of program/service is running on the device ? It's a simple script to open/close the chicken coop door + monitor temperature and water level, nothing to taxing :lol: You could at least start monitor memory usage, using "top" or just "cat /proc/meminfo" pi@raspberrypi:~...

Hi, I have a persistent problem that the raspberry keeps crashing, around Christmas time it would run fine but of late it will only run for a week or less without crashing. The raspberry running headless, controls the chicken coop door and monitors temperature at the bottom of the garden. Sometimes ...
