Emoncms: Post failed -11

My iotawatt suddenly stopped uploading data to my emocms.
I would appreciate if anyone can help me.

-11 is timeout. It appears that Emoncms stopped responding at about 5:21. Your WiFi connection to IoTaWatt appears to be working because PVoutput is up to date, but influx doesn’t seem to be working either. Does your Emoncms and influx share the same host?

There isn’t enough log to provide any assessment of the WiFi or state of the influx or Emoncms uploader instances.

thanks for your feedback. yes, I stopped manually the influx from sending data.
my problem is with uploading data to emoncms. it is failing with error “Post Failed -11”. I did checked the logs and its not showing anything reasonable. I also checked Emoncms and also found that it isn’t receiving data from iotawatt. its very frustrating and would appreciate further support from anyone with similar experience

From the IoTaWatt perspective, it is able to successfully query Emoncms to find out the time of the last post. After that, when it sends the data, it appears that it does not receive a response from Emoncms.

So this could be a communications problem or a problem with Emoncms. It does not appear to be a problem with the IoTaWatt.

Without knowing anything about your network topology or Emoncms instance, I can’t speculate on what could be the issue, and I’m not an expert at Emoncms anyway.

Have you tried restarting your router?
