Hi Guys,
Recently updated to latest firmware, 3.18.9.0
Im receiving “Whoops! OLSR is not running, try again later.”
No nodes displayed.
The device is an AirRouter set to client tunnel mode, also linked via RF.
1. Tunnel client shows active connection
2. RF nodes are seeing the AirRouter
3. RF nodes cannot see anything past AirRouter
4. Have power cycled several times and waited a few hours... No change.
Any suggestions?
May I add that the device was working for a good few days without issue.
Any help, is very much appreciated.
Regards,
David

Good morning/evening Joe,
Thank you for getting back to me.
There are 3 enabled tunnels, 2 have an active connection, 1 shows that its inactive though i can trace route to it.
Memory-wise (just now whilst seeming to be operational):-
/tmp = 13820 KB
memory = 4900 KB
Nodes = 135
How do those numbers look?
Also yes, I have downloaded the support data and attached to the message FYI.
The device seems to be up again though; there was a power outage for several hours that took out the RF nodes also (not on USP yet)... I wonder if that had any part to play?
Hopefully, the support data file will shed some light on the issue, if not then if/when in future this reoccurs, I will repost with that file.
I assume then, that for lower memory devices more tunnels are not advised given the required RAM allocations?
Regards

Hi Joe,
Didnt have to wait too long:)
Have attached the new support file.
Yesterday evening the node seemed to be operational again.
So this morning, first thing I went to check and found that I was unable to see the node from my RF link... To give you and idea, I was accessing the network from an AirGrid -> RocketM5->dtd->RocketM2 -> AirRouter
Yesterday I was able to see the AirRouter, however today the AirRouter was not visible.
When I was able to get physical access this afternoon, I found that it was to routing traffic from the raspberry pi to the internet (Xastir onto the APRS servers). This is running as an IGate for local 2 meter APRS, and was also displaying Inet only traffic. I was able to trace route to 2 out of 3 tunnel servers activated on the AirRouter but not to any 10.x.x.x. on the RF side.
Took a picture, but cant seem to resize to meet the upload requirements, though here are the data:-
uptime 1 day, 16:23
load average 0.47, 0.49, 0.37
free space:
flash = 648KB
/tmp 13780 KB
memory = 3620 KB
OLSR Entries:
Total = 0
Nodes = 0
Cheers

P.S. I have also reduced the tunnel servers to a single local connection, to see if this improves the stability given your comment on the kernel. (Is there an method/option to use a USB memory stick as RAM, as with JFFS2 and fstab? Not even sure thats possible?)

just in case, I'd turn of all tunnels, reboot, then immediately do a save in basic setup, to make sure everything is clean. Tunnels on 32M RAM devices push the ceiling on RAM usage and strange things can happen.
