Time is not synced when system starts before surrounding network #4683
Comments
Pi hardware has no RTC so depends on NTP, and if "other network infrastructure" is not available (internet no up yet etc.) then NTP will fail and system clock starts at the current libc elease date (April 2019). ConnMan will make repeated NTP checks with a progressively decreasing frequency, but if you leave it alone, onoce the router/internet comes up it will eventually set the clock correctly. This is normal behaviour for Pi hardware (there is no bug) so I will be closing the ticket. If the behaviour bothers you; get an RTC chip/battery https://thepihut.com/products/mini-rtc-module-for-raspberry-pi |
OK, understand. And one more think - why is the network-online.service (and possibly kodi-waitonnetwork.service) in failed state? It should not be there, if it is not a bug, should be? The address is assigned correctly after all. This still is an issue, isn't it? |
^ ConnMan repeatedly makes NTP requests if the initial request fails - this commit was explicitly made to solve the issue of Pi boards with no RTC having issues (reported by me to the connman devs). If the network could not resolve ipv4.connman.net (which it would not if the internet is down) the service will remain in an offline state. If a reboot after the rest of the infra resolved all .. "nothing to see here, move along please" |
@t-dan If you can reproducete issue and want do some more research you can enable connman debug logging by creating
and reboot. Afterwards user But as said: if there is no obvious configuration error this is a connman issue. |
Describe the bug
When my Raspberry 4 starts, the time is not synchronized correctly. It seems to me that it occurres when the libreElec starts before the other network infrastructure (e.g. on electricity shutdown and restart of the whole village)
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Not sure, if it will work, though ...
Informations
Log file
network-online.service and kodi-waitonnetwork.service are in failed state while wait-time-sync.service is still running (forever). Besides that, all works without problems.
Note that the date is wrong in the long, but the message shows "1 years 7 months ago" since I have started ntpd then.
