Buckeye MultiBase SE Logs

The Buckeye server application (MulitBase SE) log file is located at /home/animl/data/[base station id]/log.txt. I have found it’s easiest to access if you download it to your local computer via AnyDesk’s File Manager functionality. While logged into the Base Station computer via AnyDesk, click on the lightning bolt icon in the AnyDesk navigation bar, and then select File Manager. From there, you can find the log.txt file on the Base Station computer, select it, and click download.

Animl-base logs

is a separate node application that is responsible for watching for new images added to the Base Station computer and uploading them to s3. We use to daemonize animal-base and a separate temperature monitoring script. Complete PM2 logs can be found at: /home/animl/.pm2/logs/

Rebooting the Base Station via the networked power switch

If a base station crashes, it should reboot automatically in a couple of minutes. However, as a failsafe, we also try to plug the base station computers into networked power strips, so if it freezes and becomes unresponsive, you may want to try power-cycling it via the networked power switch that it’s drawing power from.
