I also received these same php errors. If I recall correctly the issue was related to wrong PHP path in the /usr/sbin/ scripts. Atleast for Ubuntu and Centos #!/opt/bin/php
does not work (should be /usr/bin/php).
Also access rights gave me some problems.
I managed to get Thermiq interface running on ubuntu, but since Ubuntu 11.10 is rubbish (needed a reboot almost every day…). I have now changed to Centos 6.2 and I have not had the time to set up Thermiq. taloLogger is gathering information for now.
It seems I managed to get Thermiq running, but I only get logs collected if I manually push “real poll”. I have added /usr/sbin/poller to crontab, but so far I have not gotten that to work.

Found some issues why Thermiq interface was not working. The /sur/sbin/ scripts assume that PHP is located in “/opt/bin/”, but in Ubuntu 11.10 it is “/usr/bin/”.
Also there are some rights issues remaining as the create database scripts cannot run unlink or chmod.

Hi,
Thanks for this info! I blacklisted the cdc-acm module.
I changed the logging interval from the heatpump. Before I had thermiq I wanted to see at least some history so I “doubled” what the Thermia LCD showed me by changing it there. So it really should not have had anything to do with Thermiq, but it was something I did and after that I managed to get it connected. No idea if these are related in any way.
After chmod 0666 check_install recognized the thermiq board. Some other issues still remain.

I think that my issues with Thermiq and Ubuntu are a result of access rights issues. I need to run the scripts manually to get all error messages visible and then try to fix any issues. If I figure something out I will post it here.
I have noticed some other strange behavior with the USB serial port on my Ubuntu machine. The serial port had changed from ttyUSB0 to ttyUSB1 yesterday (noticed after taloLogger crashed) and today it switched back to ttyUSB0. I assume that this is a Ubuntu 11.10 issue.
Also as I have an 8Gb SDHC card attached to thermiq. There seem to be issues with that also. It gathered information for a while and then I manually downloaded it and renamed the VP.log file. It started to create a new VP.log file, but then some strange issues appeared:
ls: cannot access MapLoader: Input/output error

The row with “MapLoader” is a big question. It cannot be deleted. Trying to delete will result in the I/O error and the VP.log file has not been updated.

I have no idea what I did or what happened, but now Thermiq is being recognized as ttyUSB0. Last night I upgraded the Ubuntu kernel to the latest one, but at that time it did not seem to help. Today I changed Thermia logging interval from 2M back to 1M. After this I noticed it was recognized ok… strange…
Thermiq software is still giving me issues and is not working (check_install.php says serial port is not working). I managed to set up communication to the Themiq board with taloLogger (http://olammi.iki.fi/sw/taloLogger/).
