After ~24 hours, the system loses its environment sensor.

I've been running this for about 6 months or so now, and consistently it will drop the environment sensor after about a day. I haven't found the actual triggering factor, but a power cycle always brings it back. I'm going to attempt to capture some logging to see if I can sort it out, but as I recall, logging was somewhat limited - but I no longer recall why that is the case.

Strangely, it thinks uptime is only 3 days here, but it has been "up" for weeks so far as I am aware. Unsure of what is causing it to power cycle on its own. The following is after I power cycle it:

It's a very strange bit of behavior. Apart from the slowness that is present (and pretty much unavoidable as I understand it), it otherwise behaves exactly as expected.

It appears that if you trigger a restart from the webui, it will immediately lose the environmental sensor. Very peculiar.

Best I can tell, any time there is a soft-restart, the dht doesn't get initialized properly. Perl and JavaScript are my languages, but I am trying to find the inits and where the soft restarts are occurring and update it.

Seems as though the soft reset happens every morning around 8a local time (Central time, USA).

I would have expected to find it in main.cpp if it is happening intentionally, but no such luck.
Will keep looking.

Thinking it might be the HomeKit watchdog function doing it. Somehow the watchdog timer expires and the thing soft-resets, losing the dht.

Hi Tony, sorry for the late reply but unfortunately I have now moved to a new house (with is the main reason for the delay) with different AC units so I’m not using this code anymore so I won’t be able to maintain it further.
