trouble getting motioneye to start right on boot

Postby jbodhorn » Sat Sep 17, 2016 6:35 pm

After booting when I $this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'sudo systemctl status -l motioneye') I get:

At that point motion seems to be running, same for motioneye. Even though I have the errors posted above I can open the web control panels and live stream for both motion and motioneye.

when I $this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'sudo systemctl restart motioneye')
I get:

No more errors on a restart of motioneye

Since installed motioneye, which is supposed start motion, I have set the Daemon option in motion.conf to off. I thought having the Daemon option set to on was what was causing port in use conflicts, but setting it to off hasn't changed the error I'm getting

I don't have a separate log for motioneye as I do for motion, is there a way to make motioneye output it's own log? Does anyone have any idea why motioneye isn't starting properly?

Here's all the files in /etc/motion/ and also in /etc/motioneye/ I do not think I had the /etc/motion/tasks.pickle or /etc/motion/thread-1.conf until I installed motioneye

Re: trouble getting motioneye to start right on boot

Postby jbodhorn » Tue Sep 20, 2016 11:32 pm

I'm not sure what changed because I didn't change anything but I have motioneye starting right, before when I disabled motion with systemctl motioneye would fail to start motion and motioneye would not run. With both motion and motioneye enabled I was having conflicts since motioneye is supposed to start motion.

I went to further diagnose the problem and started by once again disabling motion and rebooting, ever since then I haven't had a problem with errors on start for motioneye...

I love it when stuff just works, I love it when I fix things that didn't work, it pisses me off to no end to have no idea why something that wasn't working just started working right.... kinda like my internet sharing to a router question I posted here a while ago, at least that time I changed a bunch of settings, I just dunno which settings that were changed fixed my problem, if it breaks again I won't know where to start to fix it... Same for this, if motioneye suddenly fails to start motion like it was I won't even have an idea why
