Help - please: Templates stopped working after update to build 12617 **solved**

Post by Mike.Manzo »

A quick question: Our power cycled last night and I received the new 12617 build (FW 1.4). I noticed this morning that previously working templates no longer work. Nothing changed for me other than the update to FW 1.4. I can log into the station just fine via a browser; all services are back up and showing good connection(s).

Here is the template that worked with the previous firmware:
http://meteobridge:<password>@ip-of-met ... ?template=[th0temp-act=.1:---],[th0hum-act:---],[th0lowbat-act:---]
-- or --
http://ip-of-meteobridge/cgi-bin/template.cgi?template=[th0temp-act=.1:---],[th0hum-act:---],[th0lowbat-act:---]

Edit: The request eventually times out with: The CGI process did not produce any response

Current Specs
-------------------------------------------
Platform: TL-MR3020 (no USB hub)
RAM: 29364 kB total, 3940 kB free (86% used)
SW Version: Meteobridge 3.8 (Jan 1 2019, build 12617), FW 1.4
Uptime: 0 hours, 22 minutes Buffer: 3 items (0%)

I am at a loss; everything was working great until the update. Any and all help would be appreciated!

This won't help you much, but BOTH of my MeteoBridges (TL-MR3020v1 & TL-MR3020v3) respond to your template immediately, without any errors

Have you tried rebooting your bridge and/or your router? That sometimes clears up transient errors for me...

Thanks ... that makes it worse. :(

I have rebooted the bridge multiple times; will try the router next. Templates are the only thing not working. Live data returns immediately as well - just as expected.

Curious, SANdood ... you have the 12167 build?

Thx.

Indeed I do - I should have mentioned that.

I've experienced similar timeout issues, and it almost always seems to get cleared up by rebooting the bridge and the router/nameserver/DHCP server (usually all on your router, but my environment is a bit more complex).

Well - SANdood gave me an idea ... I had rebooted the bridge many times. I had not powered it down completely. So - I tried that and voila ... she started working as before.

Thanks SANdood ... Great suggestion.
