RPi in Docker "Can not get metric values" about fritzbox_exporter

[sberk42]

I've experience similar issues, when a fritzbox OS update is applied, afterwards I need to restart the exporter to get lua to work again. so I guess it is somehow related to when the exporter is unable to reach the fritzbox.

however so far I did not manage to reproduce the issue (without upgrade), to find out where it is coming from. do you have a way to reliable reproduce it? I could then add some more debug output to the lua_client to see where the issue is coming from.

I have stumbled upon this issue when playing around with the Wireguard-feature currently available via "Fritz! Labor". I have made the following observations:

• Losing IP connectivity to the Fritzbox: no problem after connectivity has been restored
• Firmware-Update: "hash '' has no element 'data'"
• Reboot: "hash '' has no element 'data'"

So my assumption would be that renewing the SID after the Fritzbox has been rebooted doesn't work as expected. Fritzbox log keeps telling exactly this: "ungültige Sitzungskennung"

do you know the http code you received?
SID renewal was only done if 403 (forbidden) was returned - maybe the code is different after reboot.

I just pushed a change to always renew the SID in case of an error - maybe this helps in this case

Sorry for taking so long to get back to this topic

No joy, still "hash '' has no element 'data'"

Does the http code get logged somewhere?

strange, I checked again but it looks this can only happen if the call was successful, but somehow the returned json was not as expected

I now added support to do a reauthentication whenever something goes wrong with the metric collection

let's see what now happens

I just found some time to test: Problem still persists.
