Remote RaspberryIO not working

[Tfernandezw]

Update worked like a charm! I was starting to go nuts thinking it was my wiring to the relays

Disregard...Found it on sticky links.

Hi, I have the same exact issue, where can I find the update? I'm still showing version .8 as most up to date!

[alexbk66]

please provide full logs from the startup of the plug-in, and test only with On/Off controls. Thanks

[EDIT]

Big update - it works! Not sure what's changed, may be using on/off instead of toggle. Not sure but it works.

Thank you everybody, especially @spud.

Buying the plugin now.

do you still get an error at startup?

No, the MemoryMapFailedException was caused by not using sudo, as you said before.
I'll do a clean test without using 'toggle' and report.
From my previous message it looks like when toggling - it reads current state first, which returns 'on', but in fact it is 'off'?

Actually, looking at log - looks like pins are always set to OFF when toggling:

Flashed new Raspbian image, installed 3.0.0.9 on both Windows HS and RasPi, same result - all looks good:

ul-14 02:26:46 DEBUG Pin8 value changed to On
Jul-14 02:26:46 DEBUG Setting Pin8 to Off
Jul-14 02:26:46 DEBUG Pin8 value changed to Off

Jul-14 02:26:46 DEBUG Setting Pin9 to Off

But pins don't change

I think this is a bug introduced in version 3.0.0.8, I fixed it in version 3.0.0.9.
Please test this version and let me know. Thanks!

Thank you, I'll try. I'm installing new Jessie image now just in case.

[EDIT] - Where do I install it - Windows HS or RasPi?

I tried another Jessie image (without ZWay) I get:

Thank you @spud
I do run as su (in /etc/rc.local):

sudo /home/pi/RaspberryIO/run.sh &

I set event toggling all outputs every 5 seconds, after enabling debug I get (on RasPi side):

Jul-13 18:40:46 DEBUG Pin17 value changed to Off
Jul-13 18:40:46 DEBUG Toggling Pin18
Jul-13 18:40:46 DEBUG Pin18 value changed to On
Jul-13 18:40:46 DEBUG Setting Pin18 to Off
Jul-13 18:40:46 DEBUG Pin18 value changed to Off
Jul-13 18:40:46 DEBUG Toggling Pin22

First suggestion would be that RasPi is faulty, but from Python it does work.
Two other possibilities:
1. I have RaZberry hut installed, could be interfering somehow, I'll test removing the card
2. The plugin was installed on RasPi more then 30 days ago, but I had to rebuild my Windows machine, so now in plugin management page it says "26 days left", not sure if on RasPi side it has its own check? Wouldn't want to pay for plugin until it's working...

you need to start the run.sh script as root, as shown in the user guide:

sudo ./run.sh

I think this is the cause of the error you see in the logs and the cause of your problem.

To set the log level to debug, go to the config page for your remote instance, there is a dropdown list at the bottom of it.

[alexbk66]

how do you test the pin state?

With multimeter

do you run the plug-in using "sudo"

Not sure, it's starting automatically using run.sh

when you say "'Toggle' option works only when output is 'on'" does the pin actually become lo when you do that?

No, only in GUI, the pins are always '0'

please set the log level to Debug, restart the plug-in, and post the debug logs of your tests.

How do I set log level to Debug? In HS server the plugin isn't enabled, do I set Debug mode on RasPi?

I filtered the current HS log, file attached. I noticed there are some errors sometimes, but after rebooting RasPi they go away and it seems like there's no errors.

[spud]

I installed RaspberryIO plugin on my RasPi3, following all instructions. It does show up in 'Remote Plug-Ins' section in my HS3, saying ok and showing correct IP address.

I configure all pins to 'output', but when I change the state in HS - the pin states don't become 'hi' on Raspi.

I tested GPIO with RPi.GPIO - all works.

I also noticed that 'Toggle' option works only when output is 'on' - so it goes 'off'. But when it's 'off' - toggle doesn't do anything.

So, what's wrong? Please help...
