Duo internal HDD dissapears and returns on restart?

[327521609]

Hello Everyone,

I am running blackhole 1.7.5 and its been fine for a week. I have a 1TB internal HDD fitted and I have the Cool TV Guide installed.

I have setup my EPG using Crossepg. Its been working fine using the HDD to store all the EPG data. Over the last day my EPG data is missing and I have tried to download again. But when I check the Crossepg settings my storage device has changed form HDD to Internal Flash. I cannot change it back and if I go to devices the hard disk is not shown and it searches for the device but crashes. After a restart the HDD is available again and everything is fine.. What will be causing the HDD to vanish?

Is this a know problem with this image or is there anything I can do to fix?

The box and HDD are less than 6 weeks old.

Hi,

I have had a VU Duo for over 2 years and have always used the BH images from the very start. I have never experienced the above until I installed 1.7.9 It was occurring about once a fortnight and like yourself the harddisk had dissappeared and crossepg was attempting to use internal flash. Simply rebooting the Box and the hard disk was again available.

About a month ago ago I decided to remove crossepg and reinstall but this didnt resolve the problem. I finaly reloaded 1.79 from the USB. Since then it has never reoccurred. CrossEpg has always been very reliable and so is 1.7.9. Something in my system must have been corrupted the image because it has never happened since.

Not a very scientific way to resolve problem but with my unfamilarity with Linux I have no means of tracing through the software. I was wondering if there any diagnostic programmes that can be run to verify the integrity of the running system? With a full backup residing on the HDD (1.7.9) and a restore facility can a compare be made on files that would allow us trace any any problems? I have activated Samba and have full access to the HDD from my PC. But I note that I do not have chkdsk tools through the Samba link to see if any badblocks have appeared on disk. A tutorial on basic diagnostic tools and methods would be great and probably save me a lot of time.

Regards
Dave

Hi

Last time I looked when Crossepg was set to internal flash I pressed blue button and extras. I went into device manager and tried to access mount points but it give me a green screen and I have to reboot the box. I will try the fresh image approach tonight and see how it goes. I will see if there is a crash log that I can upload so that someone can investigate for us.

 

[Dave Wood]

Confirmed --I also tried to verify that the HD was mounted but the HD was not available and I also ended up with a green screen which produced a crash log (enigma2_crash) in the root directory. Unfortunatly I deleted them!! Will be sure to check if it happens again.

Seems like its either an image problem but I am running 1.7.5 and you on a differnet version? My friends is setup identically with same model hard disk as well so I am lost. I setup both the boxes identially.

Yep I have the same problem with cross RPGs returning to flash and HDD disappearing when I look for it in 2x blue device manager I get green screen crash when it reboots it's back
Iam vu+ duo 1.7.9. Picons on USB stick EPG ON HDD and universe on stick formatted split for USB and Unverse.

 

[327521609]

I have Picons on HDD and have no usb drive mounted. It can only be one of the following causing it to happen I am a IT engineer but don't have a background in Linux unfortunately.

I have come to the conclusion..

Problem could be with the image (but you using 1.7.9 and I am running 1.7.5 . I have done a full backup of mine and given it to my friend who has the same HDD and Box as me because I ordered them the same time and his is fine)
Fault with the HDD or the mount in Linux (not sure if HDD is formatted in Fat or EXT)
Fault with on board SATA chip

The problem went away when I reflashed. So not convinced a hardware fault exists on my unit. My 1TB internal drive is ntfs formatted. no USB drives attached. Its been at least 4 weeks since this happened. I was wondering if the internal ram was overflowing because of other processess active. Try shutting down everything you dont need
eg telnet, samba cif etc also I moved the cross epg load time to 3 oclock in the morning to ensure nothing else was running eg time shifting, recording etc. I think we should wait for an expert to scan the crash log and see what they come up with.

Yes we will have to wait. I have done a full backup and restored onto my friends who has same box and HDD. He has no faults at all on his system, I have checked my flash at its at 75% which is normal it will only breach that when the HDD disappear.

The plot thickens? So the other variables besides the VU hardware are quality of the epg sat channel and the network connections between the two boxs? These will presumably not be the same and could be causing interuptions or delays whilst compiling of the data stream. I know question if mine failed because of these variables and reflashing was irrevelent? I forgot to mention I changed the network and sat connections over christmas just before the problems started. Can't see why these would effect it though?

Found a fix on another forum..

Latest files for CrossEPG reverting to internal and randomly failing to load


Was asked for the latest files as the respective threads have got way too large that they are difficult to find so here they are

These files haven't changed since they were last posted in their respective threads so if your CrossEPG is working fine then there's no need to update as the files haven't been updated

All 3 files should be unzipped/unrared to the folder /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/systemPlugins/CrossEPG, delete the corresponding .pyo file and then restart the box.

To check that the revised files are in place, after the restart check that the 3 .pyo files have a date/time stamp the corresponds to roughly the reboot time.

In terms of what the files do:

crossepg_auto.py - this looks like the main library file that gets called when the box does an automatic EPG download and import
crossepg_setup.py - this is the main library file that gets called when you invoke the crossepg setup menu on screen
crossepg_loader.py - this library file performs the actual import of the latest EPG data.

So I have gone into my box using FTP to the directory listed above and deleted the 3 files then I have unzipped the files attached and copied them to my box in the same folder listed above. I restarted the box and checked that the new files had today time and date stamp.

I will test this over the next week fingers crossed!

Great work, Hope this fixes the problem. I occasionally get a random fail to load and thought this was the data stream corrupted from open TV channel. I will check the file versions loaded with 1.79. I have also just downloaded the BBC Iplayer and unzippped it ready for download. I haven't used the ftp/ telnet facilities yet so it will be a good opportunity to familiarise my self. Good Luck.

Hi,
How have you got on since uploading the new crossepg files above?
Since saying that the reflash fixed the problem the problem reappeared last night after a 4 week clean run and I had to reboot the box. However I have been patching the Samba .conf file to add access to other directories so I may have disturbed something. I am wondering if the Network access via Samba to the internal Drive being reconnected and disconnected has something to do with the HDD dissappearing? I have now changed the crossepg load to a USB stick instead to see if it is more stable.

 

[327521609]

The issue never reappeared but its only been a few days. I have just changed my EPG download to the Built in Blackhole to see how it goes. Blue Button / Red Button (EPG Panel) Coolmans TV Guide works using Rytek

My friend is testing his just using USB stick to save the data. If his goes wrong again I will update the CrossEPG files like above.

 

[Dave Wood]

Thanks for update.

 

[ripblade]

dont know which one is the corresponding .pyo file

quote !delete the corresponding .pyo file! ???

 

[327521609]

Down load the files attached and then you need to extract the files to your desktop. Then FTP into the box and go to the correct location which is...

/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/systemPlugins/CrossEPG,

Within this folder are the same file names which you have just extracted. Delete them same filenames from the box and then upload the new files to the same location. Make sure the new files have current date and time stamp. Now restart the box

Hello everyone I have tested My VU+ Duo running 1.7.5 for nearly 2 weeks and I have never had another problem so I think this has fixed the issues regarding loss of HDD / USB stick
