  • Problem with Spark

    And what about rebooting without flashing and viewing the output?


    There is a way to get more output, but it involves changing the u-boot environment.


    Safest way is through the serial port, other way is from enigma2.


    First step would be to boot to enigma, telnet to box and run:

    Code
    insmod i2s
fw_printenv


    and post the output (it will be long.)


    BTW - to post long output use the "code" button (#) and paste between the tags:

    Code
    [ CODE ]  [/ CODE ]

  • Cron Job

    First message is about oscam, but all others are about cccam. Are you using cccam?


    Also, there is really no good reason to reboot a linux server every day.

  • Problem with Spark

    Code
    [*error*][YWCOLLECT_GetServerUrl:340]Open net_server.xml file failed!
[*error*][YWFILE_IsDbFileOk:562]===Open file[./AppUserDb/syscfg.bin] failed===
[*error*][YWFILE_ReadFlashToDB:816]===Read [./AppUserDb/syscfg.bin] failed, take
[./AppUserDb/syscfgbak.bin] as default===
[*error*][YWFILE_IsDbFileOk:562]===Open file[./AppUserDb/syscfgbak.bin] failed==
=
[*error*][YWFILE_ReadFlashToDB:822]===Read [./AppUserDb/syscfgbak.bin] failed, t
ake [./AppUserDb/syscfgdef.bin] as default===

    Finally I looked up those errors and they are normal for a first boot because no settings were saved yet, so it uses the defaults.


    Are there more errors later?

  • Problem with Spark

    Looks like it is trying to skip the bad block in the flash, but it still gets errors reading. Not sure best way to try and fix. I will write if I think of something...

  • Problem with Spark

    If you can boot to enigma, you can try to flash_eraseall the spark partition.




    Find the mtd partition with the "Spark Root fs" (in this case mtd4)


    then run

    Code
    flash_eraseall -N /dev/mtd4


    replacing mtd4 if necessary...


    The try reflashing from USB.

  • Oscam no running

    try typing

    Code
    file /usr/local/bin/oscam


    Where did you get your oscam binary? do you have 32 or 64 bit system? I can make you a good binary...

  • Oscam no running

    That is unreadable. but doesn't look anything like the output from running the command. You should use putty or something to log into your server so you can cut and paste the output...

  • spark and enigma boxes

    Why are you replacing if you are happy with spark?


    Also
    I only have experience with the alien 2 triple, so can't really make any recommendations, but I am happy with my alien.


    BTW - you can get help here if you want to get the enigma2 side working...
