CakeQOS Cake Stops for No Apparent Reason

[TonyK132]

Any ideas about why cake suddenly stops for no apparent reason? Sometimes it restarts again maybe 1 min later on its own, but sometimes not. When I check it around 7am first thing in the morning I see that it is stopped. I have had cake enabled for a while, but just recently added the CakeQOS-Merlin script. Going to that screen tells me that cake is not running. If I run cake-qos from the terminal, and do a Download stats, I will see that it is running, but if I do the Upload stats, then attempt to get the Download stats again, it tells me that cake is not running. I rebooted 2 days ago but cannot tell if this behavior only started since that time or it is was doing this before. I also do not know if it was doing this before I installed the CakeQOS-Merlin script.

Before I did a manual Apply from the CakeQOS-Merlin screen, and saw that cake was not running, here is what was in my log file:

It looks to me like there are back-to-back qosstatusupdates going on. I have no idea if that is expected but it seems odd.

Any insights into what's going on, and what I need to do to fix it? Is it time for me to bite the bullet and do a nuclear reset and update to 10_0 and reinstall every thing?


Update: I just looked at CakeQOS (about 6 hrs later than my initial post), and it said cake was not running. I have no idea how long its been in that state. I kick-started it and now its going. Maybe I'll try to do a script to periodically check if cake is running, and to restart it if it's not.

But if I hit Refresh-Status in the GUI, and the status then displays the Cake info, then I get this in the CLI:

Anyone have any idea about what's going on here?
