Problems with Raspberry Pi 3A+ - mminga - 27-05-2023 20:44

I upgraded my system and I have problems. I used prviously RPI Model B and minimserver v0.8

I use since a week a RPI 3 A+ with full license.
It crashes and does not work proper.
When I try to open the Properies the server crashes, see attached image.
I changed the loglevel to debug, but I cannot find what happens.
I cannot upload it her, because of the file size. How can I provide the log file?
with regards M

Is this error message produced by MinimWatch or MinimServer? If it is produced by MinimWatch, you need to update to the latest version of MinimWatch if you have not done this already.

You should be able to compress the log file using zip or tar zcf and attach the compressed log file to a forum post.

I use currently only minimserver.
Attachted now the log.

Thanks for posting this. It is possible that MinimServer might have run out of memory. Please try removing some folders from your contentDir setting to see if the problem occurs when using a single contentDir folder with a small number of albums.

Because of limitations of 32 bit system, I changed to 64bit.
Is a Pi 3A+ sufficient?
I have performance issues with it, the system seems freezing, there is no drive currently indexed and no other software running.
I tested minimserver v2 on my Pi Model B it worked better than on my new Pi. I'm wondering why. The same data with the same index.

It looks like the Pi 3A+ has only 512 MB of RAM. This isn't much for a 64-bit system with MinimServer configured to use extra memory.

OK I will exchange mit Pi 3A+ to a Pi 3B with 1GB RAM, hope it works than.

Dear Simon, do you suggest 64bit or 32bit system in my case when I use a Pi Model 3B?


RE: Problems with Raspberry Pi 3A+ - simoncn - 30-05-2023 20:41

If system RAM is limited, 32-bit will consume less RAM than 64-bit. 32-bit can't address more than 4 GB of RAM, so you need 64-bit if your system has more RAM than this.
