@Ranjib
I just updated from Beta-7. As you said, the equipment was removed.
However when I go to add it back in, it tells me that pin is already in use.
I have removed the timers that were using that equipment and reloaded, but I still get this error.

The admin page also says that it is in-use

Also, it will not let me delete the pin, as it says it still has equipment attached to it.

 

[Ryan115]

However it will let me add it in again. It only came up as in-use once I assigned it a new equipment

Found a bug (I think it was in there in beta-7 as well)
When you edit equipment then save, it flips the logic off>on or on>off.
Though I cannot see anything happening in the journal

I have noticed both of these (pin getting stuck with ghost equipment ) and on/off state is not enforced during equipment creation. The first one is a migration pain, and I think it won’t leave users in limbo (I.e they can overwrite things ), the second one is a minor bug and I’ll make sure I fix it in next alpha (or final )

Just to add context,
I upgraded my builds (all 5 of them) last night, during which I discovered these issues . But this was it I didn’t expect anything from else. I still need to do more rigorous field testing of the diurnal profile , doser and macro. Lighting , equipment, timers, ato, temperature etc all looks ok

@Ryan115 fixed the equipment edit bug: https://github.com/reef-pi/reef-pi/pull/502 will be out in next release,
thank you testing the alpha release and reporting this bug

I updated just now and ran into this equipment bug. What is the best way to reslove it please? Other than (my best guess) uninstalling and re-installing?

What i did was:
1) installed the older version, take a screenshot of the equipment so that i have a reference for the equipment outlet association
2) delete all equipment while the older version is installed,
3) installed new version, use the screenshot to recreate the equipment in new reef-pi

"Thumbs up"

 

[Des Westcott]

Oooops!

Ranjib. Just tried your solution above.....

Equipment was missing in Beta 7 as well. Was not able to delete there either.

 

[Des Westcott]

I have the install files on the pi for Beta 7 and the Alpha.

How do I delete the installationand all the data and do a fresh install of the Alpha.

I'm busy searching for the Linux command to remove installation, but not winning.

 

[Ranjib]

stop reef-pi, and delete the database (rm /var/lib/reef-pi/reef-pi.db), start reef-pi

 

[Ranjib]

stop reef-pi, and delete the database (rm /var/lib/reef-pi/reef-pi.db), start reef-pi

This will just move (backup) the db, you can try this as well,

sudo systemctl stop reef-pi.service
sudo mv /var/lib/reef-pi/reef-pi.db /home/pi
sudo systemctl start reef-pi.service

 

[Des Westcott]

Eish! Ranjib. I'm really stupid with this stuff!

I can't even find how to stop Reef-Pi.

Help please. I have a meeting to get to, but need to get my return pump running before I go.

sudo systemctl stop reef-pi.service
sudo mv /var/lib/reef-pi/reef-pi.db /home/pi
sudo systemctl start reef-pi.service

Sorry, only saw this response after I typed.

 

[Des Westcott]

Right!

Done as suggested above, now get the following error alert when I try run.

Log attached as well
