Often when my Vera3 UI5 restarts, there is a second restart almost exactly 10 minutes later. It looks to me like the “Downloaded Plugin Critical” message indicates a plug-in is to blame, but nearly all of those plug-ins appear to be in the same thread. How can I tell which plug-in caused the restart? Unlike other restarts I don’t see any warnings in the minute or so before the restart…
The log suggests an issue with the DSC Alarm plugin. There may also be an other plugin that is maybe obsolete or no longer supporting UI5 that gets your Vera trying to download a file no longer there. No hints a bit up in the log file?
it’s not the first time that I noticed that something blocking the I/O is crashing the LUUP engine. anyway, I agree the logs are somewhat not useful regarding debugging issue, unless you turn verbose logging on, but it will be very verbose this way.
Yes, it is the :Reload: - Which in theory happened before the DSC error. This only happens a few times a year - and in the past I didn’t see a similar DSC error. I need to fully capture the log the next time it happens and see if I can replicate.
Note the 10 minute timer to (re) try and download plug-ins is still in UI7. I upgraded firmware yesterday, and it was a dumpster fire until I rebooted about the third time. After the normal firmware upgrade and reboot, I had numerous errors in the blue message area about trying to download plug-ins - and that it would try again in 10 minutes.
The Mios App market seems very slow again since a few days. Last time that happened it also caused this type of issues. Hopefully they can fix it faster than last time. I did flag it to Sorin in an other thread.
I think a slow app store is the likely explanation. After the notices about the downloads, the message bar showed a “Error in Lua for scenes and events” - which it does when startup drags on too long and Startup Lua doesn’t get completely loaded.
Some of the plug-ins I know are out of development or for which I use custom tweaks already have auto-update off, but most of my 15 plug-ins are still enabled (a lot of which is Vera bloatware). I think that is a worth testing - but I would have to undergo a reload for every plug-in as I unchecked it. It would be nice is there was a single switch and no reloading.
