Auto control mode not working all the time #1

Closed MichaelAronsen closed 11 years ago

MichaelAronsen commented 11 years ago

Thanks for this project, i'm using it unintended as a sous vide controller :-)

The problem i'm seeing is that i set it for auto mode, with set point at eg 150F, it works for a while, but then at some point revisiting the webinterface it will have changed to off mode, without me changing the mode.

Do I need to have a browser connected all the time or?

I found this was due to Python killing threads silently, hence why my spinoff from this died and I migrated to a pure Java based application (better thread control)

I haven't seen that problem before. I'll look into that issue and see if I can replicate it with the latest hard float raspbian version. If threads are being killed I'll look into why it is happening. Thanks for bringing up the issue. I've also used my setup as a sous vide controller with 5500 Watt element in a keggle.

Thanks for the replies, in my case it seems to be caused by spontaneous reboots of my pi, i'll investigate the cause of this..
