I'm working on some customizations to my Venus/Pi setup and running into some issues.
Questions:
(A) Does leaving my desktop connected to Node Red (https://192.168.1.125:1881/#flow/xxxxxxxxxxxx) for long periods (overnight) lead to problems that would not occur if I close the browser window when I'm not actively editing Flows?
Hunting around the Raspberry/Venus filesystem I'm not finding detailed logs so far.
(B) Where do I find detailed log files on Venus OS Large 2.92
Raspberry/Linux?
Venus?
Node Red?
Can Node Red log locally (on Pi3+ under /data) what appears remotely in the browser "debug" window pane?
MQTT?
d-bus?
Others?
(C) If, by default, Venus is not keeping detailed / debug logs, can someone tell me how to enable them?
(D) Does Venus OS Large v3.00~15 fix bugs in 2.92 that would make it a better choice now than continuing with 2.92? (I'd keep 2.92 SD card as-is for fallback and use a new SD card for 3.00)
Details:
Raspberry Pi 3+ - re-installed fresh in January 2023
Brand new SanDisk SD Card
apt update / upgrade done
Venus OS 2.92 - installed fresh
Node Red & Signal K enabled
MQTT enabled
Programming Node Red
Working as intended
Disabled MQTT via Remote Console at end of day
Had experimented with it, but didn't really need it
Left Node Red desktop browser window open overnight
(https://192.168.1.125:1881/#flow/xxxxxxxxxxxx)
In the morning, Node-Red in desktop browser unresponsive
SSH connection from Desktop to Pi3+ "broken pipe"
SSH reconnect attempt timed-out
Attempt to reload Node Red webpage (on desktop PC)
Refreshing web page very slow
took much longer than I was willing to wait for
Left for 2 hours
Checked Pi3+ again
Pi3+ does show up on router as connected device
Router shows Pi3+ is still sending/receiving data
Router indicates 2+ days connection time to Pi3+
Desktop browser to Pi3+ Venus Remote Console DOES respond
Checked Node Red
Responding, showing messages in debug panel again
Checked SSH
Responding, now it does connect to Pi3+ successfully
Seems like everything has returned to normal...?
