MMM-SunnyPortal not loading

[SkyFocusNL]

Hi,

I found this tread describing exact the same issue I am experiencing with this module. Strange thing is that I got this module working for a few weeks, looking very good … but after a week of disabeling it I wanted it enabled again but to my disappointment it shows the Solar Panels title with beneath 4 times “Loading …” and that does not end.
I tried reinstalling the SunnyPortal module, MagicMirror and even started from scratch with a complete new raspberrypi install but still no luck. I tried the fix from this ( MMM-SunnyPortal Solar Module](/topic/12184/mmm-sunnyportal-solar-module) thread but also no luck, after altering the node_helper.js file MagicMirror is not starting at all. Changed that back to the original version again.

What I notice in de logging when starting MagicMirror is the following lines as soon as I activate the SunnyPortal Module:
0|mm | [2020-11-12 16:38:52.747] [ERROR] If you think this really is an issue, please open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/issues

Any idea what is going wrong here, above logging says it has got something to do with the node_helper.js file …

help would be appriciated …

Hi Arjan,

I also encountered the same problem and noticed that I was forced to create a more complex password on the portal, but even after changing the password, the problem remained…

I got it working again by making use of the user-agent of the latest Firefox browser version, being:

‘User-Agent’: ‘Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:82.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/82.0’

So it seems that we have hit the same browser user-agent issue again as mentioned in post https://forum.magicmirror.builders/post/77179

You can fetch the latest release from
https://github.com/linuxtuxie/MMM-SunnyPortal

Can you confirm its working again?

Hi linuxtuxie,

I have reinstalled it and it worked … for 1 day, I now have the same problem again …
I’ve reinstalled it again, and it keeps on saying “Loading…”

I’ve tried using some other user-agent strings from chrome and edge. With the Edge string I’ve got it working agian

‘User-Agent’: ‘Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/86.0.4240.198 Safari/537.36 Edg/86.0.622.69’,

But it feels buggy, I will report back when it it fails again …

regards,

Arjan
