    Wireless Log Alternative on AIMesh Node?

    @SteverinoLA -- I eventually ran across a reference to this script: bcmdhdscripts/stalist.sh at master · megalloid/bcmdhdscripts · GitHub It provides all the data I wanted (and a lot more). I'm using it "as is" for now, but eventually plan to customize it to put out a smaller, easier-to-read...

    AC86U - httpd not responding

    @leon -- Those look equivalent to the steps I took. I just used the router GUI's jffs backup/restore option, but your tar options should do the same job. It sure seemed to fix the problem for me. I had been seeing the problem recur within a week (sometimes within a couple days) of reboot, and...

    Defunct cfg_server Zombies

    There’s a watchdog to restart cfg_server, so killing them periodically *probably* won’t have any ill affect. But as to what’s causing them to stop working (go “zombie”) is anyone’s guess. if you can’t upgrade FW, my only other suggestion (if not already tried) would be to power off all nodes...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.5 Beta is now available

    Then you are in the wrong thread. Please open a new thread for your issue. This thread is for discussing observed results/issues on the Beta.

    Defunct cfg_server Zombies

    What router model? What firmware version? Using AiMesh? How many nodes? Wireless or Ethernet backhaul? I suspect a problem with the master communicating with slaves, but that's pure speculation since I don't even know if you're using AiMesh. My Ax86U primary with Merlin 386.3_2 and (1)...

    Skynet Skynet Display Bug?

    The fact that the domain resolves to pixelserv's IP means Diversion is blocking it. I think you need to whitelist the domain in Diversion, not Skynet.

    Scribe DHCP Message Log

    Correct, for my post I copy/pasted just the "file" line and neglected to capture the rest of the "source" statement from adjoining lines. (Previous post has been updated to show entire statement.) Doh! I just assumed it had to be in syslog-conf because I wasn't thinking about how the @include...

    Scribe DHCP Message Log

    Thanks for all the additional comments! What I have now seems to be working so far. :) I now have a separate dhcp.log in /opt/var/logs, and in the scribe web-ui addtion. I tried the source{file()} definition with and without "follow-freq(2)". This made no discernable difference in...

    Scribe DHCP Message Log

    Just found this in the syslog-ng documentation, regarding using text files as source: So, it sounds like the log rotation, which was my main concern, shouldn't cause a problem. There is also a "follow-freq()" option to set how frequently syslog-ng checks the file, which should add some...

    Scribe DHCP Message Log

    Thanks for all the analysis @elorimer, it is really helpful! I share the concern... Both with frequency of writes to dnsmasq.log and the process diversion uses to rotate the files. I don't want some file contention to break lookups, logging, or diversion. I just checked, and it appears...

    Scribe DHCP Message Log

    I have Scribe installed with a variety of filters, working great. I would like to have a separate log of DHCP messages available in the Scribe web-ui page, without affecting the dnsmaq.log file itself. I run diversion, which sets dnsmasq to log directly to /opt/var/log/dnsmasq.log. Can I...

    AC86U - httpd not responding

    I wouldn't recommend formatting of jffs weekly -- seems like that would be a lot of wear since formatting writes every block. If you suspect jffs might be the problem, I'd say back it up, reformat it and restore -- to see if it helps. Theoretically, if a bad (or intermittently bad) block has...

    Wireless Log Alternative on AIMesh Node?

    For years, I have used an Asus Router and a second Asus Router (in AP mode) as an access point (wired via Cat6). Current hardware is RT-AX86U and RT-AC86U, both running recent RMerlin firmware. I decided to try out AiMesh, so I reset the AP and set it up as an AiMesh Node with wired backhaul...

    AC86U - httpd not responding

    Just to close this out... The problem with the webUI intermittently hanging was related to "nvram get" intermittently hanging, and the "nvram get" intermittently hanging was apparently related to some problem with JFFS. As mentioned in the previous post, I did a reboot, created a tar...

    AC86U - httpd not responding

    Just keeping this thread updated... Yesterday I had to power down the router ("safely removed" USB first) because it was time to replace the UPS battery. After that, it powered up normally and seemed to be working fine. Today I logged into the WebUI, and noticed there were no log entries for...

    AC86U - httpd not responding

    This happened again this week (unable to login to webui). I gathered one "new" piece of information before rebooting. As before, "service restart_httpd" doesn't help. It allows another login attempt, but that hangs again when the "sign in" button is clicked. One of the scripts that ran the...

    AC86U - httpd not responding

    I rewrote and combined the scripts for that night into a single script, with logging and redirect of Stderr for each step. The empty file from "nvram show >filename" is the main oddity, so if that shows up again and Stderr doesn't have any clue then I'll add more diagnostics around it. I'd...

    AC86U - httpd not responding

    Thanks, but as stated earlier -- I have already tried restarting the gui (service restart_httpd) when it hangs. It doesn't fix the problem. All it does is allow another login attempt -- but the GUI hangs again after entering credentials and clicking the login button. I have tried manually...

    AC86U - httpd not responding

    Nope. I've been running Diversion (and Skynet) on my AC86U for 3 years. Zero issues until the last couple months. Perhaps there were issues on the AC68U, I don't know, but a lot of people confuse the two.

    AC86U - httpd not responding

    Thanks - I'll check out those threads. Doesn't seem to be a memory or file space issue from what I can see, but maybe related to a specific file, so I'll read through those threads. The only change I can think of was that I added a couple devices to the LAN -- meaning I also added to the...
