Hi Phillip, Believe it or not, the problem is in your command line: /opt/owfs/bin/owserver -C -d "DS9097U" /dev/ttyS0 -p 3333
OWFS interprests this as two devices: "DS9097U" and /dev/ttyS0 Clearly only the second one is a real adapters, the first is NOT a serial device (its a text string) and so is a BadAdapter. The "reconnect" is a process for all the adapters, after every 5 RESET errors. For the USB and serial adapters there is a process to close and attempt reopening the port. For the BadAdapter, all that happens is a bit of syslog noise. Intermittent los of devices is not unusual. The 1-wire bus can be a little flaky, especially with a "hub" that sounds like a line spltter.

It's a Pentium 666 with Kernel 2.6.8. I'm using a serial adaptor labled 9097E(c) connected to the onboard serial port of the server, the adapter should supply +5V to the 1wire bus, too. My 6 sensors are DS18(S)20 temperature sensors, they are connected to the bus via an 8-way "hub". There are about 80 feet (25 metres) of shielded Cat5e cable between the serial adaptor and the hub. The sensors show up in the directory tree and they can be read correctly, but I get the message OWFS[5447]: Bad Adapter adapter reconnected in my syslog quite frequently (i.e. every 2 minutes to every 20 seconds !) . Has anyone had that message before? What could be wrong? My invocation commands are: mkdir /1wire 2> /dev/null /opt/owfs/bin/owserver -C -d "DS9097U" /dev/ttyS0 -p 3333 -t 5 --msec_read 1000 --error_print 1 --error_level 1 /opt/owfs/bin/owhttpd -s 3333 -p 3001 /opt/owfs/bin/owfs -s 3333 /1wire If there's anything I can do to find out more on the problem, let me know! Could this be an error at the owserver level that is being "forwarded" to owfs? One thing that happens is that sometimes, with the "hub" in place, one of the sensors disappears from the directory tree for a few minutes, then reappears. This seems to happen in bursts. I do not know whether this is related to the error messages or not.
