Board 1 Wire Plus stops working

hello everyone,

in the morning at 9:50 AM my board stops working (everything was fine bevor). Nothing special happend, no reboot, no system update, or something else...

I see the board on the console at address 0x18:

[root@1-wire ~]# i2cdetect -y 1
     0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  a  b  c  d  e  f
00:                         -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
10: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 18 -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
20: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
30: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
40: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
50: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
60: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
70: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --                         

But my 1-wire server give up...

Is there any other way to check what happened or whether or not the board is working correctly?

OK, so I disconnected all cables from the board and reset all components and the Pi...
now everything seems to be working again...
but unfortunately I don't know what or why it happened...

Hello Lutz

If the board started working again after a reset it may have been a software bug in owfs or the i2c driver that caused the I2C bus to stop responding. Normally if it was a hardware fault the board would not appear on i2cdetect.

If it happens again try running "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get upgrade" to check for a newer version of owfs.
