Hello, i'm experiencing random reboots on my RockPi 4b. I firstly recognoized this when my Squid Proxy Server was not working anymore because it had no permissions to its var/log/squid directory.

 

What i saw (lsblk) that /var/log/ is only of a size of 50mb. Will that be the cause for the reboots? Does the system crash when the logs are full?

 

My System is a Rock Pi 4b with 32gb emmc storage.

 

Debian Stretch with Armbian Linux 4.4.192-rockchip64 Armbian Release 5.90 (i dont know how to change to the next version as armbian-config does not provide the switch to next button)

 

Output or Armbianmonitor -u

Support for Rockpi / Rockhip64 is buggy ... well, you can try alternative kernel 5.3.y if behaves better for your case and replace PSU. For start.

Are you perhaps using some APT mirror and not main apt.armbian.com ? In this case you only need to wait a while that repository gets populated and try again. Or change to apt.armbian.com

I found out that the Logrotate to /var/log.hdd/squid was not working due to incorrect permissions. After 1-2 Days the 50 mb ram partition was full and the system might restarted then.

 

I just fixed (i hope so) the problem by removing the /var/log.hdd/squid folder and resetting the permissions of /var/log/squid to proxy:proxy

 

but when i now force a log rotation i cannot find the squid folder within /var/log.hdd/ - i thought this will get recreated then?

Problem is still not fixed how could this happen by just using it? It never filled up and crashed before.

Remove this: https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/packages/bsp/common/usr/lib/armbian/armbian-truncate-logs#L23

located in /usr/lib/armbian/ and try again.

 

If this is not a problem, it will be more difficult to debug.
