Subject says it all really... - my Rpi based setup stopped working a while ago, for either of 2 possible reasons - DHCP address on the Pi, which changed and the SD card reports 0 free space in the UI.
I\'ve spent a little time this afternoon discovering both of the above, and I think I pretty much resolved to strip everything away & start again, this time with an even bigger SD card, load the image again, re-do the UPNP config file, etc. etc.
But that\'s quite a few hours work, and if the UCM version is just a month or two away, I might as well wait...
Without being held to any promises or anything, are you able to offer even ball-park estimate of the ETA?
Cheers

Sorry that it is certainly more than a month away. We are doing the PCB design but after that it needs testing hardware and software. I suggest you try other methods for the time being
Hi Paul
I\'m really interested in diagnosing what has happened to your SD card from a disk usage point of view so I can fix the issue - currently I have no visibility on what is going on and haven\'t been able to reproduce it.
Would you be willing to send me the SD card, i\'ll happily pay postage both ways, and i\'ll send it back with the existing configuration and any updates to overcome the issue.
Thanks,
Matt
Sure, no problem.. PM me the address you want it sent to...
NB, I live in Norway, and it\'s 2 weeks before Christmas, so it may take a tad longer than normal for post to reach you...
Don\'t worry about the postage... consider it in lieu of a coffee or beer donation from the UI...
:-)
Super, thank you. I have sent a PM.
[size=\"2\"]a quick FYI... I went & bought a 16GB card, I\'ve installed the latest image, started it up, logged in, set a static IP address (my ISP\'s router\'s DHCP service is shite! - it only lets me set 16 reservations...), [/size][size=\"2\"]connected to the uhai interface & uploaded my config & cclx files, and started the service... all is looking well, but I\'m curious as to the numbers given in the service status box...[/size][size=\"2\"]
[/size][size=\"2\"]disk free is showing 728M and is seemingly pretty static, [/size][size=\"2\"]memory free is fluctuating around the 780M-790M range[/size][size=\"2\"]
[/size][size=\"2\"]
[/size][size=\"2\"]Does this seem right to you? - I have absolutely no idea how the image is partitioned... - I\'m guessing now that I *think* I\'ve seen reference to the image fitting onto *some* 4GB cards, so if it\'s a 4GB partition, then I suppose my plan to use a 16GB card to give more >useable< space was pointless.... - I guess the other 12GB is just sitting there unformatted and unloved...?[/size][size=\"2\"]
[/size][size=\"2\"]
[/size][size=\"2\"]If that\'s right, I presume there\'s a way I can extend the current partition into that unused space and make much more headroom for the service to run in? - but I know barely more than absolutely nothing about linux/raspbian etc... so this isn\'t something I\'m comfortable just jumping in to... guess I\'ll head over to Google... :-)[/size][size=\"2\"]

Hi Paul, the exact same thing happened to me, I re formatted several times as I thought I was doing something wrong, but same result every time.alphawerks are aware I think and looking at it
This morning, I\'ve checked again, and the number are now:
Online - Version:1.0.1a Disk Free:492M Memory Free:411M Load:0.70
Both seem to have dropped quite substantially...
Paul G.
Yes, this was by design, the partition doesn\'t resize automatically as the filesystem should manage itself (and tidy up the log files). I suspect something is going wrong though (my system has been running for many months without consuming much disk space). Paul has sent me his old card so will look into what is going on when I receive it.
I\'ll also post instructions on how to extend the FS for those who are interested.
Thanks,
Matt
The stubbornnes of this software refusing to bend to my will no matter what I try is becoming very irksome!
Today I have repeated the discovery exercise a half-dozen or so times. Taking Matts earlier advice, I edited the UPNP config file to expose fewer devices, I then ran discovery and let it go for about an hour or so... it *STILL* would not discover all my devices... so I did the same again... removed even more devices from the list... yet again discovery stopped a few devices short of what I know I have exposed.. i.e. right now, I have 57 devices configured in the file & discovery has stopped at 54 - it\'s been stuck there for the last half-hour or so... Now I *know* that it can - and has discovered more devices - on the previous attempt earlier today it got to 67 discovered devices, which once again was a few short of what I know was configured in the file... - with the previous build before the discovery limitation was widely reported, I had successfully discovered over 100 devices... these devices have the same names they\'ve always had...
It really rather seems to me, that what ever is configured in the UPNP file, the last few just aren\'t discovered, no matter how many are configured - every time I have rediced the list of exposed devices in my file, the actual discovery always stops 3-4 devices short...
I\'m going to try one more time, and I\'ll add 3-4 non essential devices at the end - since counters are last in the file, I\'ll add a few unused counters to the end of the list in the config file & see what happens...
