I've searched and read other msgs on this however none really helped.
My rpi3 died and took the SD card with it (sigh). So I took the opportunity to create a completely new system install (everything) on my rpi4 with 64bit Debian Bookwork (boot image from Raspberry Pi Imager). Fresh install of NR using the 'curl
' command. My project appears to be running fine again (yes I back up key files frequently).
Side note: All the GPIO's are working properly now, no yellow 'OK' indications however HTOP still showing python nrgpio.py processes using between 2 and 4+ % cpu each, they fluctuate rapidly.
The exec node challenge I have is with a seemingly simple command (other msgs were with more complicated scenarios with apps I don't use). It has to do with the alsa sound system.
When I SSH (remote) and enter [:~ $] "amixer set Master 65%" all is good and I get:
Simple mixer control 'Master',0
Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined
Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right
Limits: Playback 0 - 65536
Mono:
Front Left: Playback 42598 [65%] [on]
Front Right: Playback 42598 [65%] [on]
Using a local terminal via XRDP works just as perfectly also however when I send the exact same command through an exec node I get:
Command failed: amixer set Master 65%
amixer: Unable to find simple control 'Master',0
What is different about the (core) exec node that it can't complete this (seemingly) simple request? TIA
