HTTP 500 error for system update

Without knowing what caused the problem I would suggest re-cloning a fresh install from GitHub.

All your irrigation programs and settings are in the /data/ sub-directory so if you rename the SIP or OSPi directory with e.g.

Code:

sudo mv SIP SIP-old

then clone the new copy with:

Code:

git clone https://github.com/Dan-in-CA/SIP

and copy the data from the renamed one:

Code:

sudo cp -a /SIP-old/data/ /SIP/

That should give you a clean install with your programs and settings intact.

There was a name change from OSPi to SIP to avoid confusion with the OpenSprinkler software. If you have not updated the software in a while this may have something to do with the problem you experienced.

If you are using the init.d script to start the software automatically it should still work with the new program name but it would be better to replace the old ospi script in /etc/init.d/ with the new sip version that is included with the install. See the documentation under instillation and set up > The recommended method:

Let me know if you have further questions.
