Failed to update prices - System.ArgumentException: totalHours

[Flexmaster]

Hi,

Likely something lame causing this issue, but I just can't figure out what. I'm running teslamate and agile on my Synology DS218+ i a docker container. I assume the issue is related to the TimeZone variable or local DS system time somehow?

teslamateagile: image: mattjeanes/teslamateagile:latest restart: always environment:

• DATABASE_USER=teslamate
• DATABASE_PASS=secret
• DATABASE_NAME=teslamate
• DATABASE_HOST=database
• TeslaMate__UpdateIntervalSeconds=300
• TeslaMate__GeofenceId=3
• TeslaMate__EnergyProvider=Energinet
• Energinet__Region=DK1 # See below Energinet regions section
• Energinet__Currency=DKK # See below Energinet currencies section
• Energinet__VAT=1.25 # Optional: VAT multiplier. In this example 25%
• EnerginetFixedPricesTimeZone=Europe/Copenhagen # Optional: IANA (tz database) time zone code, used for below times
• EnerginetFixedPricesPrices__0=00:00-00:00=1.42 # Fixed Transport

And I get the follow output when starting teslamate manually:

Hey, if you only have the one fixed price you can set this natively within the TeslaMate interface under geofences and you don't need TeslaMateAgile.

However if you still want to use it you can try 2 things:

1. Set the time range to 00:00 - 24:00 (untested)
2. Add another range e.g. 00:00-12:00 and 12:00-00:00

Hey Matt, Setting the time range to 00:00 - 24:00 seems to work fine and solved the problem :) I use the "EnerginetFixedPricesPrices0" for the static expenses pr. kWh. To my understanding TesmaMateAgile adds the hourly cost for raw electricity (reported by EnergiNet API) to the FixedPrice. A quick test seems to (somewhat ish) match up with this. If I enable the "LoggingLogLevel__Default=Debug" to see the calculations made, where can I find this log?

Thanks for quick reply!

[MattJeanes]

Ah I see! The log goes to stdout so you should be able to view this with the docker logs just like you've posted above

[MattJeanes]

I completely misread your config as I'd just woken up when I saw this 😁 I just saw fixed price and presumed you were using that provider

[Flexmaster]

Well, before the morning coffee (or alike) all mistakes are forgiven! :) Thanks - I found the logs pr. instructed. I need to do some digging with the EnergiNet numbers vs. my supplier/operators hourly numbers. It's close but no cigar as they say.

Thanks a lot Matt for your assistance! And keep up the good work!

[MattJeanes]

Haha true, okay fantastic! I'm gonna close this issue but let me know if you have any more questions 🙂
