QUAD SATA Fan not working

#1

My FAN start no running after update I think…

I read a lot of previous post, try to update the pigpiod.service like below but fan still not run:

Please help, I know this like a monthly question…

I believe that I have read in the forums that the problem occurs when you have IPV6 enabled.

fan.py has the following line:

        host = misc.check_output("netstat -l | grep -o '\S*:8888' | tr -d ':8888'")

Try commenting this out and simply set host to ‘127.0.0.1’ and see if this bypasses the IPV6 possibility.
Your pigpiod service config had the entry:

ExecStart=/usr/bin/pigpiod -n 127.0.0.1

suggesting it will be listening on IPV4.

See: https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/104439/why-are-some-services-only-listening-on-ip6

#3

Thanks, where is the path for fan.py?
Just to be clear. I should edit the lines in the fan.py as below:

# host = misc.check_output("netstat -l | grep -o '\S*:8888' | tr -d ':8888'")
host =127.0.0.1
#4

The file is /usr/bin/rockpi-sata/fan.py

That would be my suggestion to see if it works. If you look in your /etc/hosts file you would see the possibility of two ‘localhost’ definitions like:

127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback

My pigpio daemon (sudo systemctl status pigpiod.service) shows the daemon started as '/usr/bin/pigpiod -l) and I am not having your problem, so I have not changed the line in my running code, but had tested it before and gotten a good connection.

#5

After modified the fan.py, all my Harddrives are gone after reboot, cannot see in lsusb and lsblk.

but after change it back, then all the drivers appear again.

#6

Did you get the service to start, or was there an error? Check ‘systemctl status rockpi-sata.service’ to see if there are log entries or errors from python.

#8

Do you get any output/error if you run manually the service?
/usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/rockpi-sata/main.py on

#9

Did you ever get this figured out??
I have the same problem on mine and i have tried modifying the pigpiod service with the following with no luck:
ExecStart=/usr/bin/pigpiod -l -n 127.0.0.1

Let me know
Thanks
