You might check to see if you have a file like:

/tmp/log/cmh/XXXX.dat

Where XXXX is all numbers.
I see that if a corrupted files is created it is never deleted … So you could have run out of space before adding the USB drive … and thats causing the problem.
Delete (or rename) the file and see if your problems go away.

file does not exist

I tried removing the USB drive completely, and then re-adding it - no difference.

now I’m getting “Lua Startup Failure” after updating to 6.5 … and the devices are still not working (Bypass, etc)

I give up. Something is corrupt. Time to rebuild

I’ve been rebuilding, using the LUA scripting method BUT I ran into a major PITA… Notifications are not saved

Is there any way extract these and then import them?

When they are gone from the PLEG devices, they disappear from VeraAlerts… which is a huge part of the value chain for me. Rebuilding notifications by hand is going to take 2 hours… It already took 2 hours to prep & import the 4 of the 7 PLEGs I had.

This is very tedious and time consuming. There must be a better way.
