Log goes too big #52

Hi, the current.log tends to gain all the free space on partition. Deleting from time to time solves that, but if you would clear it on boot, it will be better for all others. I can do it by cron, of course.

Config can also be used, setting e.g. LogLevel = ERROR and/or SignOfLifeLog to a high value

Hello.
I have the same memory filling problem.

This is what my config looks like. ini:

[DEFAULT]
AccessType = OnPremise
SignOfLifeLog = 5
GridMeterBalancing = 1
LogLevel=INFO

[ONPREMISE]
Host=192.168.0.199
Username=
Password=

Should I still edit it? And please advise how.

Here's an extract from Shelly's directory:

root@raspberrypi4:/data/dbus-shelly-3em-smartmeter# du
du: ./current.log: Value too large for defined data type
220 ./img
84 ./docs
8 ./service/supervise
16 ./service
364 .

Can I request an order to erase the logs?
Thank you very much.

Hi,
yes, I would edit the file and as I wrote set e.g. LogLevel=ERROR
I used simple the vi editor to edit the file which is available on the device.
And I also just removed the log file.

Hope this helps

Thank you for the quick reply.
Can I ask for the exact specification of that command to delete the file?
I'm not a complete expert.
Thank you.

i used crontab as follows before that 0 0 * * 0 rm /data/dbus-shelly-3em-smartmeter/current.log && /bin/bash /data/dbus-shelly-3em-smartmeter/restart.sh but each update removed it. You can use it to manually delete the log (it cannot be done while running)
So just run this and you should be fine "rm /data/dbus-shelly-3em-smartmeter/current.log && /bin/bash /data/dbus-shelly-3em-smartmeter/restart.sh"

Thank you for answer.
Unfortunately it doesn't help me.
The answer in Putty is:

root@raspberrypi4:~# rm /data/dbus-shelly-3em-smartmeter/current.log && /bin/bash /data/dbus-shelly-3em-smartmeter/restart.sh
rm: can't stat '/data/dbus-shelly-3em-smartmeter/current.log': Value too large for defined data type

Please clarify what I am doing wrong.
Thank you.

The command "du / - h" was very long and at the end this.
du: -: No such file or directory
du: h: No such file or directory

Then I used "du -d 3 /data | sort -nr"
root@raspberrypi4:~# du -d 3 /data | sort -nr
du: /data/dbus-shelly-3em-smartmeter/current.log: Value too large for defined data type

Thank you very much for your kind help.
Can you think of anything else?

But the current.log file doesn't have that code, so I can't use it...

Thank you very much for your patience and detailed instructions. I'll try to get some help on how to clear the log so I don't have to uninstall Shelly. After these attempts, it seems that even the uninstall would fail due to the inaccessibility of the log.
In addition, I also use HomeAssistant and I really don't want to redo anything with my knowledge :)

@johnyhravy try

# echo > /data/dbus-shelly-3em-smartmeter/current.log
# /bin/bash /data/dbus-shelly-3em-smartmeter/restart.sh

this should work. I've also fixed the problem with growing log files and waiting that the code will be merged ( PR #71 )

Thank you very much for your answer.
About 2 weeks ago, with the help of experienced advisors, I managed to clear the entire memory. I don't even know how it happened, but 2 days after entering various commands, the memory was OK.
Thanks everyone for the advice.
