Problems with new installation

[Joe Curtis]

I have recently had to reinstall my system due to my micro SSD card going on the blink.
When I restart the new system it appears to continually restart.

Any insights would be more than welcome

Others may know better, but first, if you are uploading to website using the PHP method have you copied the PHP Upload secret: code in your \webfiles\upload.php file and then FTP that file to your website?

Have you entered the correct settings for your station type?

Enjoy,

I think this is yet another FO usb station that does not work due to the ”Stream open failed” error. I think no-one has resolved this yet.

[mcrossley]

It is a permissions problem.

If I run CumulusMX as root it can read the HID device OK. As a regular user it fails.

I have tried adding a new rule file to /etc/udev/rules.d/
with the contents:

Code: Select all

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="1941", ATTR{idProduct}=="8021", MODE="0666"

and adding a new line to the existing 99-com.rules file

Code: Select all

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", GROUP="pi", MODE="0660"

Either of which is supposed to fix this, but even after a reboot (incase "sudo udevadm control --reload" didn't work) my regular user "pi" on an old system still had not access to the HID device.

Any Linux gurus got any more ideas?

[mcrossley]

I also tried changing the file permissions ton the device itself (/dev/usb/hiddev0), still the same problem.

[freddie]

Try adding the pi user to the wheel group.

[mcrossley]

I tried using "plugdev" as the group in the udev rules as recommended elsewhere - and the pi user is a member of that group by default. No workie.

Add the pi user to wheel group - "The group "wheel" does not exist.

[mcrossley]

OK fixed! The rule syntax is slightly different from the original source I looked at.

To fix this I did the following (all as root/sudo)...

1. Create a new udev rule file:

   Code: Select all

   /etc/udev/rules.d/50-usb-cmx.rules

2. Add the following content:

   Code: Select all

   SUBSYSTEM=="input", GROUP="input", MODE="0666"
   SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="1941", ATTRS{idProduct}=="8021", MODE:="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
   KERNEL=="hidraw*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="1941", ATTRS{idProduct}=="8021", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"

3. Unplug the stations USB cable
4. Run the command

   Code: Select all

   sudo udevadm control --reload-rules

5. Plug the station USB cable back in
6. Run Cumulus MX as a regular user - now works

Many thanks Mark, that seems to have done the trick although I haven't a clue what is going on!

i have been having issues where no data was received on dashboard after upgrading to v4 with my fine offset station. I have done the above and is now working at long last, thank you Mark
