Problem with version 3.22.0 for RPI

metofficemk · Post by **metofficemk** » Thu 10 Nov 2022 12:16 pm

Hi, I have installed this version onto my RPI and can connect to the RPI just fine but Cumulusmx is not running and comes up with an error when I try to run it manually. Using the sudo systemctl status cumulusmx command it give me this...

cumulusmx.service - CumulusMX service

It has worked fine for me with previous versions

Anyone come across this as well / any suggestions on how to fix?

Thanks

Did you happen to update your rPi?

I am running v3.22.3 and when I updated my rPi two days ago it broke my CumulusMX.

I restored from my backup, updated and it broke again. I reinstalled everything from scratch including updating to current and all is good again.

I installed the latest RPI version of CumulusMX onto a new SD card, so could swap back very easily if there was a problem.
The latest version comes with is it called Bullseye? which is a later version of the OS than on my old SD card.
I did try updating the OS but that did not help.

@metofficemk, which model of rPi do you have?
Does it generate an MXdiags file? If so, can you post it please.

metofficemk · Post by **metofficemk** » Fri 06 Jan 2023 11:25 am

I have the same problem with a fresh install on blank SD card of version 3.23.0.
I have had this issue for over a year, just been hoping a new version will fix the issue, but no

I run sudo systemctl status cumulusmx , and it always fails as "Active: failed (Result: signal)" I have no idea what this means or what to do.
See details below...

Can you please help me to solve this, thank you

I do have a much older version running fine but it would be good to have the updated version going.
Any questions just let me know.
Thanks

You could start by answering the questins that Mark asked you on November. What RPi model are you using? Pi zero, Pi2, Pi3, or Pi4? And send the mxdiags log file if one is generated.

Hi Dazza1223

Thanks for your post.
Do I simply copy and past your lines into the files on the SD card called config.txt?
It currently looks like this...

no u edit this file

fist stop cmx bye running

sudo systemctl stop cumulusmx

sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/cumulusmx.service

and replace it with my one

then run

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

and

sudo systemctl enable cumulusmx

then start cmx

sudo systemctl start cumulusmx

I've just re read your posts you state that u have downloaded a rpi image fresh on a sd card well there is ur problem as ur trying to run cmx twice as it automatically run the first boot anyway so ur trying to run it twice completely in a different directory

The directory is home/opt I think top off my head I will check tomorrow

You could start by answering the questins that Mark asked you on November. What RPi model are you using? Pi zero, Pi2, Pi3, or Pi4? And send the mxdiags log file if one is generated.

The reason we are asking the hardware you use, is that if you are using Pi Zero, Pi 1 or an very early Pi2, then you have to remove an reinstall mono-complete -package so it will be compiled to work on the earlier processor model. This happens by running following commands:

sudo apt remove mono-complete
sudo apt install mono-complete

At least on Pi Zero it will take several hours to complete.

Also if you look at the MXdiags folder on /opt/CumulusMX/MXdiags, there should be a ServiceConsoleLog.txt and another logfile that is named by the date and time of the latest startup attempt. It could give valuable information about the problem instead of trying to guess what is wrong.

I am using a Raspberry Pi W Zero 1.1. My output from pinout is
```
Revision : 9000c1
SoC : BCM2835
RAM : 512MB
```

I am able to run mono --version without any obvious error

```
cmx@raspberrypi:/opt/CumulusMX $ mono --version

I tried using your config file, but it did not make any difference.

There are no files in /opt/CumulusMX/MXdiags. Should I be looking somewhere else?

I tried to launch CumulusMX.exe with -debug directly and got this output:

```
cmx@raspberrypi:/opt/CumulusMX $ sudo mono CumulusMX.exe -debug

Since you are using Pi Zero and Mono seems to crash brutally when trying to start CMX, most likely the issue will be resolved by the mono reinstall. This is not the first time we've seen this during last years. The early crash also explains why your MXdiags is empty.

Unfortunately the reinstall of mono includes recompiling of some binaries, and therefore it takes a very long time to complete. Many have thought that it has frozen, but hang tight. It should take less than 24 hours

It did not take that long to reinstall Mono?
