Data.json file not found

[Jsorace04]

Hi, been running into weird issues since starting my project.

First, I am having trouble connecting to my local website via my iPhone. I have no issues when connecting via my pc browser. Every so often I get it to work and I am able to see my uploads from last night and that's it.

Tonight I tried again and was met with the error message of Data.json file not found. When I try to run "'allsky/scripts/postData.sh'." It comes back with no such directory found. Hoping this has to do with my browser issues and file upload issues to the local website

Is the "every so often I get it to work" with your iPhone or PC? And is "my local website" the WebUI (usually at http://allsky) or the Allsky Website (usually http://allsky/allsky)?

Usually if one device can access a web page and another can't, it's caused by something with the non-working device. Allsky doesn't care what device is accessing it.

Try running postData.sh.
Is the error message from a local Website on your Pi, or a remote Website?

I ran Allsky/scripts/postData.sh and command successfully completed. I just got that prompt on my local website. I am not running a hosted website yet.

Yes seems to only be my iPhone not connecting to both webUI and the local website.

I find that if I clear the website data it comes right up on my phone. Then after about an hour it stops

@Jsorace04,
did you just install the local Allsky Website? Does it display the current image?
data.json should have been copied to the Website at installation, and then again every morning.

Did running postData.sh get rid of the "not found" message?

[Jsorace04]

Yes just installed the local website, and yes it does display the current image.

Yes running postData.sh got rid of the error message and things seemed to be smoother.

I believe I caught the pi running the end of night Timelapse process and I was not able to connect to the local website and the webUI during that time.
