I have noticed yesterday that the fans on my Pironman 5 Max (I am using Trixie OS) running a little noisily and when I tried to look at the dashboard the browser cannot connect (refused to connect). I restarted the system and the fan returned to normal speed and much quieter, but the dashboard is still not responding.

When I SSH into the Pi I can see that the pironman5 service is running and does not seem to be reporting any errors, but ‘sudo netstat -ltn’ does not show anything listening on port 34001

I have almost the same symptom! The pironman5 daemon is running, RGB LEDs work, and the OLED display shows the usual. But no http 34001 listener port! I also asked this question in reply to a similar (older) thread, see [my thread](https://forum.sunfounder.com/t/pironman-v2-auto-start-at-boot-not-working/509/5)

We have followed the steps in your tutorial for testing and verification. The dashboard is accessible, and the data is displaying normally. The issue you encountered may be intermittent.

To better assist in diagnosing the problem, could you confirm: Are you currently booting your system from an SSD?

After executing the following commands, does the problem persist?  
sudo service pironman5 stop  
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/influxdb/data/pironman5  
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/influxdb/wal/pironman5  
sudo service pironman5 start

Sorry for the delay (notification email went to spamn folder) - I am booting from SD Card and only using the 2 x SSD’s for the shared folders.

After carrying those commands the Dashboar on 34001 is still not responding.

If possible, we recommend reinstalling the Trixie operating system and then following the tutorial steps to install the pironman5 software:

> **[pironman5 - Set Up on Raspberry Pi/Ubuntu/Kali/Homebridge OS — SunFounder...](https://docs.sunfounder.com/projects/pironman5/en/latest/pironman5_max/set_up/set_up_rpi_os.html#downloading-and-installing-the-pironman5-module)**
>
> If you have installed Raspberry Pi OS, Ubuntu, Kali Linux or Homebridge on your Raspberry Pi, you will need to configure the Pironman 5 MAX using the command line. Detailed tutorials can be found below:

Run the following commands in order:  
cd ~  
git clone -b max [GitHub - sunfounder/pironman5: Code for Raspberry Pi 5 case (Pironman5)](https://github.com/sunfounder/pironman5.git) --depth 1  
cd ~/pironman5  
sudo python3 install.py  
After successful installation, reboot the system and check if all case functions are working properly. Then, try accessing the dashboard from your browser.

Note: Your PC must be connected to the same local network as the Pironman 5 MAX to access the dashboard successfully.
