Yun Resets every ~1-2 minutes

I've uploaded a sketch to my arduino yun and it runs ~1-2 minutes before reseting again. I'm not sure what is causing this.

Has anyone encountered this problem? I didn't see any posts involving the Yun and this issue. If you know of a forum post, please forward me to that post.

nano /etc/rc.local
wifi-live-or-reset
nano /usr/bin/wifi-live-or-reset
...
MAX_SLEEP=60
...
/usr/bin/wifi-reset-and-reboot
...

If in 1 min wifi does not work, It will reset and reboot.

nano /usr/bin/wifi-reset-and-reboot
/sbin/reboot

fix method:

nano /etc/rc.local
#wifi-live-or-reset

Disable wifi-live-or-reset, connect ethernet cable to wifi router. make sure you have enough wifi signal strength (>80%) then re-enable wifi-live-or-reset.

Hmm, it seems to be connecting to the wifi correctly. It'll run about 4-5 loops within the sketch which print to the serial monitor and then it restarts.

Do you have any other ideas?

Without seeing your code, I have only two WAGs:

  • unstable power source
  • excessive RAM usage that crashes the AVR

Posting your code can at confirm or dismiss the second one...

K. I'll post the code tomorrow.
It's currently receiving power via USB, so it's probs the ram.
Thanks for the info.

Btw, I got your PM(s), but I was not near a computer all day yesterday and this morning things are going a bit crazy over here as I need to check with some clients about some possible computer damage after an earthquake here in the San Fernando valley this morning.
I might not be able to take a closer look at this until late tonight or possibly even not until sometime tomorrow...

No worries. I really appreciate the assistance when you're available! :slight_smile:
