I saw (and read) other posts concerning the web interface not providing any data. Not sure if you are keeping track, but it doesn’t work for me either. I am booting off of a NVME, but I don’t get any data if I boot off of the SD card either. The controls for the OLED, LEDs, Fans, etc… work fine. But no temp, storage, memory, processor, or network data is shown. Just today, I updated to your latest software release. My pi is headless, so I had always used the terminal commands to set preferences. I wasn’t even sure if this would work, but web interface loads with http://mypiaddress:34001. I tried stopping the service, removing var/lib/influxdb/data/pironman5 and /var/lib/influxdb/wal/pironman5 and restarting. made no difference. In the log files for the dashboard there is just error messages “failed to set data…”
Not sure that I really care that this does not work. I am pleased to be able to access the settings without the terminal, but, as I said, if anyone is keeping track, then no, it doesn’t work for me either
Please provide us with a video or screenshots of your issue, which will help us analyze and solve the problem.
You might also try reinstalling the operating system and then follow the tutorial steps to install the software. Let us know how it works out!Setting Up on Raspberry Pi OS/Ubuntu/Kali Linux/Homebridge — SunFounder Pironman 5 documentation
As I said, I had tried deleting those two folders with no results. Tried that a couple of times, actually. I also changed permissions on those to 777, which, also, did nothing. While experimenting like this, I had the service stopped and started several times. Eventually I gave up and left it. A few hours later, I noticed that it had started to work. No idea why.
If you are putting together a fix list for your next release, I did notice that my network type is called “Wired&Wired&Wired&Wired&Wired&Wired&Wired”. Also, under storage, an unmounted drive is referred to as “No Mounted”

http://mypiaddress:34001
[/quote]The problem might be with the URL you are trying to use. The assembly instructions, specifically section 5 Control with Commands or Dashboard, state the URL as http://:34001 with an indication in carrot brackets of where your RPi5 IP address is supposed to go. This IP address will be on the top line of the RPi5 OLED display or you can use an app like Advanced IP Scanner to find uour Pi and get the IP address. Something like 192.168.7.78. Put that number in the space where is, minus the carrots, and put that into the search bar on the Chrome (or Firefox) browser.
Yes, of course, although wouldn’t this be an all or nothing thing? Use the wrong address and you get nothing? The web page was loading (and the settings working) just no data presented. But it’s a moot point… I said “mypiaddress” to avoid posting my actual URL. This port is forwarded from my domain to the pi5. And, yes, when I was trying to figure out why this was not working, I did try just using the intranet address.
But, as I said, it is working now, although why it wasn’t, and now is, is something of a mystery
Theoretically, you can access the dashboard using either the hostname or IP address, provided that the Raspberry Pi and PC are on the same local network.
Currently, we recommend using the IP address for access, or accessing the dashboard using the hostname in the Raspberry Pi’s local browser.
We will verify and resolve this issue in the future
