Issues After Update to Version v2024.12.06_04 – 2 Errors

I'm not sure if I made a mistake during the update, but I encountered two errors. I'm attaching a screenshot and the support logs.

Another unusual behavior has occurred – Startrails are only generated after restarting the Raspberry Pi.

The file startrails-20250706 was not created due to a Wi-Fi outage.

@Michal198569,
Did the startrails not get created, e.g., no ~/allsky/images/DATE/startrails.jpg file, or was an image created but didn't have any stars with trails? Those are two totally different things.
To see if startrails creation failed, i.e., didn't produce any image, run:

grep -E "Generating Startrails|Startrails completed" /var/log/allsky.log*

Looking at your Website I saw 3 days this month that had no startrails image. You can manually create them via the generateForDay.sh --startrails DATE command.

FYI,
Startrails (and keograms and timelapse) are only created at the end of nighttime, so if Allsky isn't running then, those files won't be created for that day.

Sorry thats my fault !

Have a look in /opt/allsky/modules/allsky_weatherunderground.py around line 148 you will see

s.log(1,f"INFO: {result}")
s.log(0,f"ERROR: {result}")

Please delete the second line so that it just reads

s.log(1,f"INFO: {result}")

I'll do a fix in the code later tonight

I also notice that you are querying Weather Underground every two minutes. I would slow the down little as unless you are paying for the api they do have restrictions

Thanks

Alex

Hi,

thanks for sending the instructions. I followed the steps, resolved the issue, and everything is working as it should again. Thanks once more!

This has now been fixed in the master code so will close.
