Hello,
I need some help troubleshooting. As per the title, I’m using a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Plus Rev 1.3 with Debian bookworm kernel 6.12.93+rpt-rpi-v8 to host a local YunoHost server (12.1.40.1 stable) with the following apps:
- AdGuard Home (0.107.77)
- Baïkal (0.9.4)
- Grocy (4.6.0)
- Tiny Tiny RSS (2026.07.05)
Sadly, the server randomly crashes and can only be rebooted trough a hardware reset (pulling the plug).
Here are the last 50 lines of journalctl before the last crash: https://privatebin.net/?dbca869581c95573#83bk7W2CEPbeBGAXyg7wG8xLFhmGpwxBD9ReUaFphdCS
Here are the last 50 lines of journalctl before the crash before that: https://privatebin.net/?f7bdf2fd48ab12f7#9ZPh68rJ1p8JdzyLaGTXomZV4Lt7BhQFRYoXBKHMdKMb
I do not see anything troubling. The older journalctl read outs are equally bland. Do you have any advice on how to proceed?
You must log in or register to comment.
In my experience random reboot problems are usually related to the sd card. standard logging setups kill the card faster than you’d think. dd the existing install or rebuild the server.
time to test your disaster recovery strategy!
Thank you and u/irmadlad for the suggestion. I ordered a new SD card and will just clone the current one. I’ll probably get to it this weekend and let you know if it worked out.
Fingers crossed.
I went with Alpine Linux for hosting because of this. I like up how my light setup runs completely in RAM, saving the SD card for a while.
I’m an expert at nothing, but I’m going to guess and watch the thread: Power/Under voltage or SD corruption. I’m favoring the latter.
Reason being, the logs are pretty normal. I don’t see anything that would portend a crash. So it could be that when the RPi crashes requiring you to pull the plug, it hasn’t had a chance to write that to the logs. I know, back in my RPi days, I had a lot of issues with SD corruption.
agreed.
voltage problems would most likely result in odd errors in syslog… random controller grumbling messages, resets, etc.
