Re: IndigoServer Crash 2021.1.0

Seems to be reproducible after every reboot.

Re: IndigoServer Crash 2021.1.0

At what point does the Indigo Server crash after a reboot (Event Log file might have a clue)?

Are there any specific steps you are doing before it crashes?

Re: IndigoServer Crash 2021.1.0

I will check the log. It just crashed again.

Re: IndigoServer Crash 2021.1.0

The log just shows the restart of the server. Nothing specific about the crash. I looked for "Indigo Server".
It crashed three times today.

Time Awake Since Boot: 23000 seconds
Time Awake Since Boot: 3200 seconds
Time Awake Since Boot: 1400 seconds

The time of the crashes seems to be very specific.

I updated Fantastic Weather today, so that *might* be related. I disabled it for now - just to be sure.

I doubt that the plugin is the cause -- plugins run in their own independent thread to protect against this very thing. That said, please let me know if you find it's somehow related.

Re: IndigoServer Crash 2021.1.0

I agree, but the crashes all happened since the update and since I disabled it yesterday, I haven't had any additional crash.

Re: IndigoServer Crash 2021.1.0

If the plugin is indeed the cause (or a contributing factor) we need to figure that out asap. A plugin shouldn't be able to bring down the server, but that doesn't mean it's not happening. That said, yours is the only report of this nature I've seen.

Re: IndigoServer Crash 2021.1.0

Well I am running on an M1 Mac mini. Also I am monitoring the restart of the server by sending me a push message. Otherwise I wouldn't even know it.

I will report here if it happens again after I uninstalled the plugin.

Re: IndigoServer Crash 2021.1.0

From looking at the stack trace Indigo Server is crashing while it is trying to process an incoming command/request. I don't know where the request is coming from, but likely a plugin, the Indigo client or Web server, or a script. Definitely looks like a bug in that the server shouldn't crash regardless of the format/arguments in the commands/requests it receives, but it is. If re-enabling the plugin causes it to crash again consistently, then we should investigate it more to try to figure out how.

Re: IndigoServer Crash 2021.1.0

@Matt - as an FYI, the Fantastic Weather plugin is not taking advantage of any of the new additions to the Indigo API or new web server functions.

Re: IndigoServer Crash 2021.1.0

I should also mention that with the previous version of the plugin there were no such crashes. After the update I had three in a row. Now since one day not a single crash.

I can try reinstalling the plugin when I have more time to monitor.

As far as I know there were no other changes to the Mac.
I do use Python scripts extensively though. :lol:

Re: IndigoServer Crash 2021.1.0

It's interesting (and possibly coincidence) that the Time Awake Since Boot is precisely 13000 seconds.
