RC522 reads, but ID does not show in webinterface #1070

Played around a bit further and found the reader service is not active. On retrospect I now also see that in the log above. I started it manually and shows active now. However, the original issue does not appear solved. |

As @stundenblume said, please try
This should be sufficient, the script is supposed to do all the manual steps described. |

Hey folks! I recently (today) stumbled across the same issue. For me there was a missing dependency (i.e., py532lib) in the Reader.py.experimental script. So for me the script mentioned by @s-martin did not work! |
|
I have commented out the py532lib references in the script, so this should not have been the issue. I started from scratch again to set up the RC522 standalone with some online tutorials. It worked and afterwards it also worked with the Phoniebox. I must have made a mistake somewhere along the line though I am not sure were. Thanks for the support and also for removing the bug label. When starting a new thread it is not possible to assign any other label to it. |
Bug
Hey! I am fairly new to the world of Raspberry and started this project for my little daughter.
I am using an RC522 RFID reader and initially had the issue described in #1001, but got that fixed. I wrote a script to test the reader separately to phoniebox and it works fine, so it does not appear to be incorrectly wired or have any libraries missing.
In the web interface of Phoniebox the ID field stays empty when I bring a tag close to the reader.
Any hints?
What I did
I installed the raspberry pi with above mentioned buster image and ran the installer script
Ran the steps to add an RC522 (libraries added and ran the steps described in the RC522 component readme)
Tested the RFID reader with a separate script
Fixed the issue described in #1001
Double checked java is enabled in browser displaying the web interface
What happened
No RFID ID showing up in web interface
The syslog usually notes that the channel for the RFID is already in use. Not sure if that is an issue. DId not do it this time when I created the log below.
There also appear to be some issues with MPD in the log and it states it failed to start. However, in other parts of the log it appears to be started.
At the moment there is a recurrent undervoltage issue, a new power supply is on order to fix this.
I am also surprised it takes 1m45s to start up. That appears to be rather long.
I expected this to happen
RFID ID number in web interface
