Server is creating thousands of laps...

Post by zechdz »

I had two sessions where I forgot to add the track to the RCP and 2 sessions after I added it.
The total ride was ~80 laps.

I uploaded 2 no-track sessions and 1 of the track sessions and the site is showing 10000+ laps.... It overflowed from 9999 to 0001.

zechdz: The log file you uploaded has no laps detected in it, for the reason you specified which is you did not have a track set in your RaceCapture configuration. I'm not sure why thousands of laps were created, this is a bug with our upload processing.

Mattik: Your device was connecting and disconnecting very rapidly to Podium, sometimes in 1 second it would connect then immediately disconnect. This can be due to a power issue, bad SIM card or poor cellular telemetry.

I hope this helps! Sorry that telemetry and lap detection didn't work out. You can add multiple tracks to RaceCapture's configuration (up to 240), so add all your favorite tracks.

Hey all,

Could we get a copy of your logfiles so we can review it directly? if you want, you can upload to dropcanvas.com and email us the link. [email protected].

We realize that sometimes data will be logged without a track or a start / finish line configured, and we have the needs to do post-processing of data so that the laps (or runs) can be calculated. We'll get this prioritized.

For 99% of all situations, no. Currently Podium's tools area all built around the concept of a lap, so if RCP doesn't gernerate laps, Podium won't log any. Long term we do have plans to re-calculate laps from data sent to Podium.
