MMM-RAIN-MAP

Anyone else have MMM-RAIN-MAP all the sudden stop working?
It actually locked up my MM . OR do I have to many modules running under MMM-pages? Approximately 48.Rpi 4 8gb ram running water cooler and nvme-sata 128gb power supply is the pi5 version.

Hi @plainbroke,
yes, this is very likely API rate limiting (HTTP 429 errors) from RainViewer. The module was making too many requests with default settings.
I recommend to update to the latest release v2.11.0 which includes:
- Optimized defaults
- Exponential backoff retry logic for 429 errors
- Better error handling
-
The module is working for me, but since today, the two lowest of my four zoom levels seem to have stopped working (no change after updating).
I don’t see any 429 errors in the logs.
But let’s just wait and see; it might work again tomorrow…
-
@karsten13 Thanks for that feedback! I can’t reproduce the issue with low zoom levels - they’re working fine here with the latest version 🤔 I’m curious to hear your outcome tomorrow.

@KristjanESPERANTO
Thank you for the update.
Now MM boots up and fully loads.
Before MM was hanging at load up of all the modules.
Just have to do a little resizing so it fits the screen again…
Thank you again… -

MMM-RAIN-MAP itself is usually pretty light, but running around 48 modules under MMM-Pages can definitely cause freezes, especially after updates. Check the MagicMirror logs to see which module is throwing errors, and try disabling MMM-RAIN-MAP or a few other modules one by one to isolate it. It’s more likely a module conflict or resource issue than the Pi hardware.
