[Owfs-developers] owfs on Raspberry Buster

[Mick S. <mi...@su...>]

I am having trouble getting owfs to work on Raspbian Buster.  I have 
posted on the Pi forum

https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=251702&p=1536228#p1536228

Someone said they had the same problem but no suggestions to fix it, so 
I wonder if anyone here can give me a clue.

I have just done a fresh install of Buster and updated. I ran 
raspi-config and enabled 1-wire and i2c.
I have installed owserver ow-shell
At first it worked, I could see devices with owdir, but it has stopped 
working, owdir returns nothing
I have run "sudo systemctl enable owserver.service"
but I see -

|pi@pi-solar-old:~ $ sudo systemctl status owserver.service ●

|I have tried disable, enable, restart for the service, I have removed 
and reinstalled owserver and ow-shell but nothing helps.|

|Any ideas?
