RPi4 Not Finishing WUs

Post by russ5811 »

I have a headless setup on my Pi 4 (4GB) and FAH runs and gets assigned WUs. However, it NEVER finishes the WUs. For Example, I have a WU sitting at 36% with 8 days left but the status says it has 6 hours left to complete the WU. Is there a setting I'm missing? Is there a type of WU that Pi's are supposed to receive that they can handle within the allotted time frame? Thanks.

I tend to monitor the logs by tailing the file in a terminal with:

Code: Select all

tail -f <path/to/logfile>
This grabs the last few lines then auto-updates when new lines are added almost like if you had run fahclient from that terminal.

You do know that you can configure the client for remote control and control it from the advanced control panel installed on another computer?

ya, this was for testing and was relatively short term. I have a topic up describing what I'm trying to do now.
