Meteobridge VM crashes

I am having an issue with my Meteobridge VM setup under Proxmox. There are two issues:

1. The Meteostick sometimes does not appear on initial boot in the sensors, you have to goto Stations and click Save and it starts working for some odd reason. Console logs for the VM show the Meteostick is seen, so this is perplexing. Log:

setup (21.10.2026 12:11:32): use UTC stamp 2026-10-21 19:11:32 (1 tries)
dbase (21.10.2026 12:11:36): process started.

logger (21.10.2026 12:11:39): station 0 (RF Vantage), can't open device /dev/ttyMH: Invalid argument
logger (21.10.2026 12:11:39): station 0 (RF Vantage), connect to station failed.

2. I am having an issue where it randomly stops responding or crashes - in the last part I removed the GW1000 as a test to see if it was causing the issues (nope) -

You can see a segfault:
