Jon00 Dashboard for Homeseer 3 & Homeseer 4

[simon_bagola]

I'm running out of ideas.

You do have 7 files in your Bin/Jon00Dashboard folder ?

7+1 Errorlog (mentioned before)

Should I reinstall?

[simon_bagola]

copied all files once again, still no success....

[simon_bagola]

Is there another way to include these html5 pages into HSTouch?

[jon00]

Not that I know of. HTML5 compliance has been asked many times before (Search the board for "HTML5 HSTouch")

All the png conversion work is done by the wkhtmltoimage file. Can you check in task manager that this runs when the widget updates. It would be best to set your updates using a 15 second timer for this test.

this is really crazy... I set 1 and they are running every 15seconds - 3 of them...

BUT still no PNG...

Could it be: the whole "dashboard" folder is marked as "read only"... EVen if I unpin it, it goes back to "read only" mode...

Well that would be the issue! I assume you are running HS3 as an administrator?

yes

But even if I set the shortcut to start as normal user, it still starts as administrator... I thought, this is normal for homeseer... will play a bit with it...

Assuming you are on Win10, did you update from a previous version of Windows? If so, there are numerous posts on the web about permission issues where as an administrator account cannot write to files and folders. It appears that this gets screwed during the upgrade process.

yes, win10, but fresh install, will check it and try to solve it, before I will be bugging zou again...

will come back

reading the following: since Homeseer is nastalled in windows 10 "Program files" folder, it asks and needs administrative privileges... no way around it...

I wonder if that is true..??

***************
playing with the idea to use another copy of "wkhtmltoimage" somewhere outside from Program folder... also to save files somewhere outside and then HSTOUCH to grab them and update...

What do you think?
Any command synopsis?

[jon00]

Please try V1.0.2 on my site. I think I have found the issue.

[jon00]

Are you getting PNG files created on other dashboard configs? Are you running the latest version (V1.0.2)?

[freeon]

Updated to latest version and it appears to be working fine now. Thanks
