ls -l debug.log

lostless

-rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 16656 Jul 29 03:44 debug.log

i found a debug.log in the home (~) directory

meleu

@lostless open this file on your Windows (I'm assuming you're using Windows), select all text and paste on ghostbin.com

lostless

@meleu nope mac. I can boot into windows if need be.

meleu

@lostless nop, I just need you to copy the entire file

lostless

@meleu
its just

/var/log/syslog:Jul 23 06:28:29 genepi systemd[1]: Starting /etc/rc.local Compatibility...
/var/log/syslog:Jul 23 06:28:29 genepi systemd[1]: Started /etc/rc.local Compatibility.

over and over with different dates and times. nothing else.

meleu

@lostless now I need you to do the same thing for /etc/rc.local and /etc/switch.sh (the last one is supposed to be my v1.7 script, but please, paste it on ghostbin so I can really check if everything is fine)

lostless

/etc/rc.local
https://ghostbin.com/paste/goucc

/switch.sh
https://ghostbin.com/paste/5agap

meleu

@lostless

ls -l /etc/switch.sh

lostless

@meleu said in Mausberry Shutdown Script Doesn't Save Metadata:

ls -l /etc/switch.sh

-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 1889 Jul 29 02:42 /etc/switch.sh

meleu

@lostless
damn! I'm not getting what's wrong! Let's try this:

sudo bash -x /etc/switch.sh & 2> /home/pi/script-debug.txt

And then press the f%#&ing button. Pretty please... :)

It should turn off your pi...

@meleu

 + GPIOpin1=23
+ GPIOpin2=24
+ echo 23
/etc/switch.sh: line 22: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
+ echo in
+ echo 24
/etc/switch.sh: line 24: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
+ echo out
+ echo 1
+ file=/sys/class/gpio/gpio23/value
+ sleep 30
+ inotifywait -qq -e modify /sys/class/gpio/gpio23/value

the readout of that and its stuck. My terminal has not finished what its doing.

@lostless are you able to use IRC? maybe it's better than this forum for an online conversation... :P

edit I'm at #retropie at irc.freenode.net

lostless

@meleu never used IRC. But willing to learn. Just need a client I assume? and somehow the #retropie is relevant somehow.

meleu

@lostless let's continue here then. Is your terminal "frozen"? I mean, the script didn't stopped, right?

lostless

@meleu i figured out irc. I'm there

meleu

@lostless Great. On your irc client, perform these commands:

/server irc.freenode.net
/join #retropie

lostless

@meleu im in, i wasnt kidding. LOL

meleu

@lostless I can't see any lostless there. What's your nickname?
