Unknown Error & System Report
#1
Hello All,

Using LL2.0

Anyone know what this error below means?
Noticed it a few times over the last week or so, appears to be random but becoming more frequent, not really sure what sets it off.
Click Close and it goes away, I've never seen it come back in the same session after closing it, can happen at the beginning, middle or end of a session.
I get the impression reading it something is trying to phone home but it's being blocked causing the error to appear.
No mention of any error in the logs that I can find.

Also the system report appears to have broken, not sure when, sometime between January & now, lol, I realise that's not much help but all that happens is it opens a Terminal window that says "Create System Report" on the top window header (where you double click to maximise or minimise) & in the Terminal window itself the cursor just flashes right at the top left and nothing else happens, left it for half an hour & still nothing.
That window remains unresponsive, no text or commands can be entered manually but it closes ok.

Not sure if the 2 are related or not, just wondering if anyone might have an idea or can suggest something I can try to track what's going on.


Thanks

Last system report attached, old one from January this year, last time I did one.

I would suggest running the 2.4 Upgrade tool - https://www.freecinema2022.gq/forums/relea...-released/

Regarding the screenshot error you posted, disconnect any network connections, go into Network Manager and delete all the listed and saved connections. Then reboot and rejoin your network.

Ok had a bit of time so I installed and ran the upgrade tool successfully then rebooted.
Startup was fine, no problems.
I then disconnected the active network connection (ethernet) deleted all connections from Network Connections, rebooted, created the ethernet connection again & internet works ok.
That unknown error hasn't appeared again after first I posted about it here.

Trying to do a System Report it starts ok now but stalls at 'Collecting Network Information'
Left it alone for over half an hour now & it won't go any further than shown in the pic.

EDIT: it does create the HTML Hardinfo report ok when going Menu > System > System Information > Generate Report.

I think I know what is it.
Must have happened when repository was reset. I remember I fixed that at some point.
Run this:
Code:
sudo leafpad /usr/scripts/systemreport
When leafpad opens press Ctrl+F
Type in more and click find.
change more to cat in this line. Make sure there is a space after cat.
Code:
more /etc/network/interfaces >> /tmp/systeminfo-"${DATE}".txt
Now the line looks like this:
Code:
cat /etc/network/interfaces >> /tmp/systeminfo-"${DATE}".txt
Save the changes. Ctrl+S or from the menu File -> Save

You probably have several pages when this command is called
Code:
more /etc/network/interfaces
And more expects user input in that case.

Just need to remind Jerry to change it in repo or it will change back the next time we update lite-software.
