Wiring Pi gpio not working after a time

[priema]

I have the same problem .. i also added program_board_rev=2 to my config.txt but it still not works
the strange thing is that i can read 3-4 seconds (pir sensor) before this error appears:
piBoardRev: Unable to determine board revision from /proc/cpuinfo
-> Unable to open /proc/cpuinfo

Are you using U-Boot? I had an email recently from someone who was and saw this issue...

@priema

You have a revision of 000e (14 in decimal) which indicates a model B Rev.2 board. Your error seems to have nothing to do with the error reported by the original poster.

Agree. Seems to be a coding problem.
Bit of guesswork: using RPi.GPIO in Python and initialising it in a loop...

Ah - that'll work for the first 4000 or so loops, then croak when you run out of file handles. Maybe I'll put a check in wiringPi for it, but there's only so much you can do to protect yourself...

I have same problem.
Code operate well for 6 hour. but message show below

You are also calling wiringPiSetup() more than once per program run. This is a coding error on your part. Don't do it.

This Problem look like about program code.

This Problem look like about program code.

That error comes from the function: piBoardRev(). This is called by the various wiringPiSetup() functions. The wiringPiSetup() function should only be called once per program run. If you call it in a loop then you eventually run out of file handles resulting in some weird errors. The tell-tale for me here is your comment: Code operate well for 6 hour. but message show below That suggests to me that either (a) you wait 6 hours before calling wiringPiSetup (highly unlikely!) or (b) you're calling it in a loop and eventually you run out of resources. You need to fix your code. Move the wiringPiSetup call to the start of your code.

The next release of wiringPi will check for this.
