This is the output from inverters:

2100250486|SN: 2100250486|SB 3000TL-20|02.08.01.R|1563537333|1647|4912|26296142|38331.2|36741.5|OK|Closed|55.78

No data is returned on the other two tables.

#22

So it seems SBFspot is not running correctly…
When running this command, do you see any errors related to sql db?

/usr/local/bin/sbfspot.3/SBFspot -finq -v5 -d

#23

The only noticeable things here are following error messages:

Failed to get current plant time (0)

No data!
getSoftwareVersion returned an error: -1
getInverterData(512)

Here is the full output:

The issue here is the time of your inverter:

Current Inverter Time: 22/01/2010 06:11:21

You can try to adjust it with SBFspot -settime
Unfortunately this doesn’t always work. In that case you will need Sunny Explorer for this task
When the time is correct, PVO upload will work instantly.

Ok thanks a lot! I think this might be the last few meters before the long-desired goal…

EDIT:

I finally managed to change the inverter time using Sunny Explorer:

Current Inverter Time: 20/07/2019 17:50:50

Still it’s not uploading anything!!!

Here is the new output from your last command (too large text had to paste somewhere else):

https://justpaste.it/3lv7u

EDIT2:

YES!! It worked.
Forgot to mention that I had to run sbfspot-config again, because I thought I was using the wrong inverter (I have 2 inverters which are connected via BT with each other). Then after updating that config plus changing the inverter time with the Explorer, I had to again replace the upload daemon with your new compiled one. Maybe this wrong inverter plus wrong inverter time caused all this trouble…

Now its finally working:

#26

Perfect!

Maybe SBFspot should stop when the inverter time is way out of sync.

#27

Apparently the data seems to miss half of the output I believe. The daily outputs do not come near the peak of my system. I maybe think that he is really just taking the data from one inverter only and not from both.
I always thought with the NetID that both inverters are always connected and merge their data.

How can I check that?
And is there an option in sbfspot to get data from both inverters and merge them into one system here on pvoutput?

Cheers

#28

Data gets never merged, but will be stored in the db as separate data for each inverter.
Two important things to collect data coming from 2 inverters (See also explanation in SBFspot.cfg)
NetID should be higher than 1 (According to your logfile, yours is at 1 - SMA netID=01)
In SBFspot.cfg, MIS_Enabled=1 (This is for Bluetooth only)
So at least the NetID is wrong (You’ll have to open the 2 inverters to change the NetID)
At PVoutput side you should have 2 systems defined, 1 for each inverter (You can do it with 1 system but you’ll have to merge the data at your side when uploading. This is not recommended, PVoutput can do that for you with a 3th parent system. See data aggregation
At last, configure SBFspotUploadDaemon to map each inverter serial number with a PVO child system

PVoutput_SID=SerialNmbrInverter_1:PVoutput_System_ID_1,SerialNmbrInverter_2:PVoutput_System_ID_2

Success!

#29

Hoi,
Het lijkt er op dat de SBFSpotUploadDaemon speciaal voor buster niet gedownload kan worden. De link leidt nergens naartoe…
Ik heb de RPI4 met Buster opnieuw geïnstalleerd en krijg de UploadDaemon niet aan depraat vanwege CURL_OPENSSL_3 fout.
Hoop dat je me kunt helpen.
Groet,
Adri

#30

I’m running Buster on my raspberry and installed SBFspot 3.5.2 via the installer script. I get the error shown above:

Jan 18 11:47:34 uthus SBFspotUploadDaemon[16066]: /usr/local/bin/sbfspot.3/SBFspotUploadDaemon: /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libcurl.so.4: version `CURL_OPENSSL_3' not found (required by /usr/local/bin/sbfspot.3/SBFspotUploadDaemon)

I saw the link to the new updated uploader deamon but I’m already running 3.5.2. Should I still download the new version linked above?

#31

Yes, the precompiled binaries are for stretch with curl 3

#32

Thanks!

Works great now. First data uploaded. :slight_smile:

#33

I too have exactly the same problem.
I have Raspberry Buster freshly installed on a Model 1 Rev. B board. I ran sbfspot-config without error which installed SBFspot 3.5.2 and it runs OK. When I start the UploadDaemon I get the message below

/usr/local/bin/sbfspot.3/SBFspotUploadDaemon: /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libcurl.so.4: version `CURL_OPENSSL_3’ not found (required by /usr/local/bin/sbfspot.3/SBFspotUploadDaemon)

After this I tried sudo apt-get install libcurl3-dev
but this made no difference. Reading this post I notice for others with the same problem SBF has “recompiled the daemon for Raspbian - Buster” and put it in the following location -

Is this URL still supposed to be available because I can’t locate it in GITHUB?

Thanks

No Upload to PVoutput - Raspberry Pi 4
#34

Here it is

#35

Downloaded it using wget, copied it into the same dir as the spotupload daemon and did chmod +x 33 on the file and it gave the following error -

/usr/local/bin/sbfspot.3/33: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token newline' /usr/local/bin/sbfspot.3/33: line 1:<!DOCTYPE html>’

Thanks

#36

You downloaded some HTML code instead of daemon executable. Are you logged on at github?

#37

I originally tried to use wget to transfer the file direct to the raspberry because when I open the browser in the gui the box grinds to a halt. When that didn’t work I downloaded the file to Windows, put it on a usb stick, plugged it into the raspberry and copied it over.
It all now works fine.
Thank You

Hi there,

Same problem for me - also on Buster.

Have followed a couple of threads from above:

  • copied (from link above) SBFspotUploadDaemon_buster to /usr/local/bin/sbfspot.3
  • while not stated, I thought implied that I needed to rename SBFspotUploadDaemon_buster to SBFspotUploadDaemon
  • changed permissions (755)
  • still getting Permission denied

Any clues guys? - got a feeling I’m really close (but not quite!!
