Hello.
I noticed that the pironman5 service writes, when it is active, to a file directly in the root /1 (the file name is 1). This file grows continuously and can reach very large sizes. How can I disable this?
Please check out our tutorials:

You can delete the extra log log file’s.
Hello. Thanks for the hint, but the problem is not in the logs that are written to /var/log/pirionman5, these logs really behave correctly.
I am referring to the log that is written directly to root (in my case the log has the name 1 all the time).
At first glance it seems to be an InfluxDB log, and at one point when problems arose with the piroman5 service, the log grew to 10 GB in a very short time (2-3 hours). Considering that the log writes continuously, it practically reduces the lifespan of the disk, be it NMVE or SSD or SDCARD. The idea of the dashboard itself is very ok, but I am interested in other services working correctly. I bought the case for better ventilation for the PI 5, but considering the behavior of the service, I basically have to stop the pironman5 service. I noticed that there is further development, which gives me hope, but even after the last update the log in the root persists.
We have fixed the problem you reported.
You can just update and install the pironman5 software again.
cd ~/pironman5
git pull
sudo python3 install.py
