I installed a complete OpenPlotter update on a Rasberry Pi 3+ and now the system is a mess. OpenCPN almost doesn't work at all. If I go into OpenCPN in regular mode the entire system locks up and requires a hard shutdown. In safe mode it hangs only OpenCPN.
The is a process that is called "Node" (PID 430, State R, PPID 423) that is using 30 to 50% of the resources without me opening any programs. Could that have anything to do with it?
So far, I have not performed any setup procedures in OpenPlotter, so I don't think I have messed anything up. The only thing I have done is put the maps in a directory and point OpenCPN to them.
I would appreciate any help.
could be indexing the maps....
... this will take some time.

When I pointed to the maps, it indexed already. I was able to see the maps. I don't think that's it. I didn't install a new system, I just did a major update because the system hasn't been used in a year. The installer, however seemed to install OpenCPN new because I had to install all new plugins and point to the maps.
Are you using openplotter v3 ?
What os is The pi?
Better use an Image as Update an Oldie System < 2.

Version of OpenPlotter is 2.9.1
OS is OpenPlotter. I don't remember ever installing anything different.
Do you mean I should wipe disk and install an old OP version?
yes - make backup in signal k.
look here for backup openplotter 2.
better get an new sd card and install openplotter 3.

Fine
keep on sailing. Holger
Now that I have the new version 3 installed, I need to install Pypilot. Under the settings tab Pypilot has a reasberry icon next to it and the line is grayed out. When I select Install, it doesn't do anything. It seems disabled. I am following the Workbook. Have the steps changed with v3?
