ENTER to WIN! @TxBrew

Trying not to get too excited here, but I think it's all working! Seems the problem was I needed to "Relax and drink a home brew," while I was working on it...and maybe a reboot, or,something. More testing, then installation and calibration to come! :mug:

So I reinstalled from the beginning and followed the instructions and additions from the rollup post. I decided to keep the install dir as /var/www and changed the Apache2 config file. I get all the way to Step 9. I copied flowmon to /etc/init.d and modified the permissions as stated. Then when...

I did that previously. Will look at it again tomorrow. Life got in the way this evening.

So I re-checked the permissions and the path as stated, and they seemed correct. As I looked at the other code for flow_monitor.py (and I am MOST DEFINATELY not a coder) I found this on lines 45-46 #The following 2 lines passes the PIN and PULSE COUNT t$ path = '/var/www/includes/pours.php' I...

I checked permissions as well as the path previously but I will for sure check that again...

Very interesting, but I don't know the reason, maybe a permissions thing... Could not open input file: /var/www/includes/pours.php I get this when I ran the listener AND then each time after I blew in the meter.

Tried both of these and still doesn't seem to be seeing pours. Don't know if this would help anyone help me sort this out, but when I query the status of flowmon here is the output. Looks ok to my untrained eye.flowmon.service - LSB: Put a short description of the service here Loaded...

That makes sense. Now I see the $. Now entering ps aux | grep flow_monitor.py I getpi 1830 0.0 0.2 4272 1916 pts/0 S+ 20:55 0:00 grep --color=auto flow_monitor.py I can turn on, check status, and turn off flowmon. Serial monitor still sees data from both sensors but no...

Got RPints running a few weeks ago w/o the flow meters, although I followed w/ Flow meter instructions as I knew I would be adding them. Now I am back tracking since the hardware has arrived and I had some time. I can see data from the meters on the Arduino Serial Monitor screen using the...

Success! Working with sample data. A few more tweaks to get the display correct on RPi lcd screen, then just waiting for flow meters and board. Thx day_trippr! :mug:

Shifting gears just slightly... Since this a new build on RPi3 Jessie and I don't yet have all the hardware, am I better off with an Alamode or Uno?

I'm trying to find Jessie now... Never mind, I think I found it!

Tried above with no joy, but I think I have located the problem. Seems that Raspbian Jessie was replaced my Raspbian Stretch 3 days ago in NOOBS 2.4.3. Database handling is apparently different in Stretch. I am going back now to install Jessie. Am also going to follow install for flow...

Thanks for your kind welcome and reply. I am not not new to home brewing, but quite new to the electrical/automation side of things. I guess two hobbies are coming together. I've also been playing with CraftBrewPi. I will try that and report back.
