I think I still have a problem here. If I reboot owserver does not start, I thought it should. My owfs.conf file contains
============================================ # All owfs programs but owserver should connect to a running owserver. ! server: server = localhost:4304 # this is setting for a Raspberry Pi v2 onwards, early models should be # server: device=/dev/i2c-0 server: device=/dev/i2c-1 # The port owhttpd listens for browser connections on 2121 (default anyway) http: port = 2121 --alias = /home/control/solar/v11_0/sensor_list ============================================ $ owserver does nothing $ owserver -d /dev/i2c-1 starts the server $ service owserver restart returns "Failed to restart owserver.service: Access denied" $ sudo service owserver restart stops the server $ owserver -c /etc/owfs.conf does nothing Makes me think there is something wrong with my owfs.conf file Any suggestions?
