emonCMS on Raspberry Pi (fresh Installation) Input ProcessList does not work

Hello Community,

after searching a while the last days, I give it a try now, and ask you.

I have a fresh installed system of emonCMS, with no issues during installation, on my Raspberry Pi.

I am able to send data to the emonCMS,

But when I like to create a 'ProcessList' in the 'Inputs' area. This functionality doesn't start up, like when I am on  my Web Account @ emoncms.org.

What can be wrong here ?

Thanks

Stefan

I attache a picture for better understanding.

Try clearing your browser cache, there was an issue with the "wrench" not functioning correctly so that users couldn't add or edit processes but I believe that was all resolved. It can however still be "quirky" after the fix (or I guess a fresh install) if there are old cached pages in the browser. Try logging in from another browser or machine (not previously used with emoncms) to test.

Search this forum for "wrench" for more info

Hello Paul,

thanks for this first answer.

Clearing the Browse Cache wasn't successful. I cleard on my Mozilla, Cookies, and Browser Cache, but no success. I also tried on a different Machine, with a different Webbrowser (MS internet Explorer) but also no success. I will now, try to search in the forum.

If you have any, some more help for me, I appreciate.

Thanks in advance

 

Stefan

Ps: Is there a way, to insert this functionality directly in the MySQL ?

Just adding the right parameter to a special cell ?

Hello Paul,

its me again,

I searched the forum and found this one:

http://openenergymonitor.org/emon/node/5581

in my case it was line 205 in the file

/usr/share/emoncms/www/Modules/input/Views/input_view.php

I changed line 205 of input_view.php

from: if (i.processList!="")

to: if (typeof i.processlist !== 'undefined' && i.processlist!="")

saved the file and it worked.

 

I will play a little bit around with it, and check if all is working.

But anyway, Paul, thanks for your help, without the 'Wrench' Hint I wouldnt be able to solve that one.

 

Bye Stefan

Hi Stefan

It's just occurred to me you may have installed using the "apt-get" method and looking at your screenshot although it doesn't show the version at the bottom it does have the "RaspberryPi tab". If you have used the apt-get method then the issue I mentioned is still outstanding as the debian package hasn't been updated in a while.

The fix is in one of the threads that will pop uo if you search "wrench", you will need to edit a php script in emoncms. 

The RaspberryPi module has been depreciated and emonhub is used now, however neither the current emoncms or emonhub is available as a debian package.

There probably is a way have manually adding all the parts but may not be so easy and/or problematic, As well as a "coded" processlist in the input table you will need to create feeds in sql and the relevant datafeed engine,, probably easier to fix your emoncms.

Hi again Stefan,

You last post must of been held in a moderation queue as it wasn't there when I last posted, however that is the fix you need and the fact your emoncms is located in /usr/share confirms it was probably installed by "apt-get" which is why the bugfix is still outstanding. Glad you got it sorted :-)

Paul
