    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    Oh, one other thing that you're gonna run into some trouble with on your setup: I use the Alamode reset line (pin 18) to kick the alamode into listening mode to upload the config parameters. Now, in your setup, since your nano is not connected, it cannot do that, and the flowmon service, after...

    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    Yes, as it currently stands, the flowmon service will still move on, even if the upload fails. So, it should take care of your scenario if the Alamode isn't connected to the serial port on the Pi. I'm going to make this a bit more robust, and skip the upload/flashing altogether if the hex file...

    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    It was a bug on my part that created the problem. It's fixed now on github, and I sent 2kegger a mail with a fix it for his install. It's basically the original instructions from the web site, substituting the zip file download, adding the pyWebSocket install, and then skipping over the steps...

    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    You'd still have to do the stuff at the end of step 9, which starts with sudo cp flowmon /etc/init.d Remember, when checking if the service is running, you have to grep now for 'PintDispatch', and not for 'flow_monitor'. sudo /etc/init.d/flowmon start ps aux | grep PintDispatch...

    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    Yes, that's correct. This is done automatically when the service starts. Please attach or send me /var/log/apache2/error.log. This will tell me what the problem is. Also, once I figure what's happening, we can probably fix this via phpmyadmin. If you don't have it installed, install via...

    Glad it worked for you :mug: I guess you figured why the code tags help :) BTW, this is fixed as a bug in the other RPints thread. If you wanna help me test it, check it out... Cheers, -Th

    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    Hi folks, So, I made my updates last nite, but didn't get around to testing with actual flow meters, since SWMBO was already in bed and the whistling of me blowing thru the flow meters would have driven her mad... Got around to testing today, and also added a few things that should make...

    Just took another look, it looks as if you have a return control character after 'Perle'. Try to delete the last character in that description (even tho it looks as if nothing is there). It may work again, unless I overlooked another one (It's alot easier to spot this when the code is quoted...

    [Initial Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    Yep, the \r or \n control characters are the problem. You can also try the patch in my last post, and it should remove that stuff before generating the JS that drives the list. Cheers, -Th

    Please copy and paste that again, this time making sure you put it into code tags (the little '#' sign up there when editing a post). Otherwise the forum eats the characters that I'm looking for. Alternatively, if you know your way around the RpI, you can try the following patch: In your...

    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    Just a heads-up: Don't use it right now, I made a change last nite which may not work for your system. I may get around to fully implementing this later tonite. Basically, I found a way to reset the Alamode and make it read config parameters from the RPi. Which means that you won't have to...

    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    Yea, the jury is still out on that. I'm still missing a few essential pieces to finish up my kegerator, but I did do a test run with a Koelsch that I had handy. I used solenoids that are normally used in espresso machines. Removing the little filtering screen on the intake helped quite a...

    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    So, for anyone that tried to install this yesterday, pour updates may have not worked. I forgot to update one of the sql queries, mea culpa, sorry :( I fixed that bug, and (hopefully as a consolation) added a couple other things: you can change the counts per gallons for your flow meters (the...

    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    BTW, there always was a way for remote updates over the network (via X11 forwarding), its just kinda kludgy and requires root on the client - something I didn't have on mine (AFTV). Just implementing another change I wanted: Basically, the current version of the Alamode program only updates...

    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    It depends a bit on how much you're willing to help ;) I just updated the repository with a version that doesn't require mod_python anymore (which can be a bit of a pain to install), so now the only extra step is to install pyWebSockets. So essentially, if you wanna give this a whirl...

    I think you misread my post - and looking at again, I can see why. The way I worded that post is kinda confusing. There was nothing to show up for you to copy and paste. So here again, hopefully this is better: you click on 'kick a keg' in your RPints you right click on the browser...

    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    It's been a bit quiet lately over at the RPints github repository, which is understandable; real live happens and may make it impossible to donate endless hours. I had a couple of days over the last weekends finishing up my outdoor keezer build, and wound up fiddling with the code implementing...

    It could be that you have a special char in any of the beer names/beer descriptions that the JS code (which fills the form) doesn't like. In the tap form (after pressing 'tap a keg'), before selecting any beer, right click into your browser window and select 'View page source'. Scroll almost all...

    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    I noticed that when you have that small a pulse count per volume, then you may have to change another value in the Alamode code, using the same procedure as when you changed the pin config (see here: http://raspberrypints.com/byo/step-9-configure-pi-hardware-flow-meters-wflow-meters/) Just...
