VisibleTesla

[jpasqua]

Given that lots of people started having this problem at once, I think something changed on the server side that VisibleTesla wasn't prepared to deal with. I see where it's going wrong, but am not yet sure why. I hope to be able to spend some time debugging soon.

Congrats! - And and great app! - Glitches like this are to be expected whenever the underlying infrastructure changes without any warning. So be of good cheer. Let me know if you need my log file to chase this down.

Same for me this morning on the locating tab. I have had 5.9 for over a week and it was working even after the update so I do not think it as to do with the update to 5.9 per se but rather something on the server side that has changed, as you noted.

Mine's been throwing that snapshot refresh failure for maybe 4-5 days now, I think. My graphs and location data all stopped at about the same time time. I emailed about it a few days ago since I thought it was unique to my car since I've had a few other issues and didn't want to pollute the thread, but I'm glad/sad others are having it now, too. Hopefully it's now more obvious what's going on.

my odometer does not update on de overview tab.

This is the same with me.

No location for me either. It started yesterday, sometime in the afternoon. What confused me is that I updated to 5.9 around the same time.

 

[ZBB]

As others have reported, I've also lost the tracking. But they seem to have happened at different times:

The odometer on the overview tab shows 14,954.2 miles. That corresponds to Monday morning's commute -- 4/14 at 5:56AM MST (same as PDT), where the trip log start shows 14,954.6 -- the trip log's first location is around the corner from my house, so the 0.4 difference makes sense...

However, the trips tab collected data through my commute home yesterday -- last location is in the garage at 5:49PM MST.

OK, something has definitely gone awry. It's not just VisibleTesla. I can't get streaming data even with a set of commands sent directly to Tesla's servers with curl.

I'll keep you posted.

Does your mobile app still work? Mine does. I stopped streaming data to my server a few months ago after a rather frustrating email conversation with Tesla where it was made very clear to me that efforts like teslams and VisibleTesla were unwanted by Tesla...

Mobile app works but, has been slower than usual. It also made me reenter my credentials for the first time in a long while.

 

[ZBB]

Mobile app works fine for me. Just tried it and the location was shown even before the map loaded...

I did have to re-enter my credentials on the app a couple weeks ago...

Just chiming in here. My location/speed logging is not working since yesterday afternoon (4/15). I have had 5.9.94 since it's release.

Joe,

Is there any chance that VT is saving the data from both the Rated mile reading and the Ideal mile reading? After comparing a bunch of cars, and seeing the 5.8 -> 5.9 transition, I'm positive that "rated miles" means slightly different things in different cases, (some cars, 5.8, 5.9 etc.) but ideal remains the same. When outputting data from VT it looks like only rated is output. If not, would it be a big deal to add ideal in addition?

Thanks for all the great work!

That's disappointing. Wonder what they're looking at to differentiate the iPhone app from VT and teslams.

Thanks Peter. I'm afraid at the moment it is only saving one reading. It's possible to add in the future but that won't help retrospectively obviously.

New car, new user. Location and mapping worked great on 4/15. Gone on 4/16. Can't locate my car, etc. Is it possible that the Hacker Princess removed access to this data on the server for security purposes?

 

[MichaelS]

Besides the location not working, power and speed are now missing from my graph starting on 4/15.

 

[jredner]

I can confirm the same thing is happening for me. No location updates since yesterday.

This is what I see in the console log:

Apr 17, 2014 7:58:35 AM org.noroomattheinn.visibletesla.StatsStreamer$AutoCollect publishStats
WARNING: Snapshot refresh failed!

My guess is a change to the back-end api that is breaking the VT client because the mobile Tesla client is still able to acquire the location.
