did you check dmesg? "transport endpoint is not connected" comes up when a mounted file system is unexpectedly and uncleanly unmounted, say for example like you said, your losing the serial connection. there should be logs in dmesg about any file system unmounting and possibly what failed or caused the unmount. the reason the reboot is fixing it is because it is giving you a clean mount point to mount to again. if you dont want to reboot try this
fusermount -uz /mnt/owire then you can go ahead a remount. ----- Original Message ----- From: "decibels.drop" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: owfs-developers@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Thursday, November 20, 2008 5:54:42 PM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: [Owfs-developers] Lose serial port at 6:45am everyday. I have a hobby-boards master hub and graph the results of temp sensors around the house with rrdtool. Looks like about from Nov 9th on at 6:45 or so every morning the serial port is lost. Rebooting usually seems to take care of it and then again at same time next morning no more reports again. At first I thought maybe a cronjob from something else was causing this, so stopped any around that time and still get it. Nothing really changed to make this happen. So not sure really how to troubleshoot any further with it. Logs aren't showing anything amiss that I can see. Oh, also moved the serial port to the other one and got the same problem this morning. Using Gentoo Linux. Not sure if it is fuse or owfs or udev or even possibly the computer hardware. Hoping that someone might have ran into something similar. It's been running pretty much fine since late last year and this is the first real problem. Reinstalling owfs, fuse and udev right now. Will see in morning if happens again. Probably will. Thanks, Dave Few outputs that I know to do: $ /etc/init.d/owfs status * status: started $ /etc/init.d/owserver status * status: started $ /etc/init.d/fuse status * status: started ls /mnt/owire ls: cannot access /mnt/owire: Transport endpoint is not connected /etc/init.d/owfs restart * Stopping owfs ...
