    @Reza

    In it's default setup, domoticz writes log files and other data to the SD card all the time, and this can (over time) wear the SD card down, and eventually make it fail!

    F.ex. everytime my domoticz instance receives a message from the MySensors gateway, it writes a log entry, describing which node it received the data from. (I have my log file stored on a ram disk though, so not writing directly to the SD card)

    @tbowmo
    now you use a external memory for log ? and have not any problem ?
    can you give me a Training link for setup step by step usb memory for write log ?

      No, I do not use external memory.. I have a ram disk (I take some of the RAM memory of the RPI and converts it into a "disk")

      See this link for more info http://bfy.tw/Dlkf

          It will not totally prevent these things of happening, but it might help reduce the risk of it happening again..

                63Mb. The sd card was made for my old 512Mb RPI B, now it runs on my 1024Mb RPI2, and have been working fine for more than a year.

                      @tbowmo i search about this and i test this code before:
                      Start Domoticz
                      sudo service domoticz.sh start

                      Stop Domoticz
                      sudo service domoticz.sh stop

                      Check if Domoticz is running
                      sudo service domoticz.sh status

                      but this is dont work for domoticz that compile from source.
                      this is result:

                        @Reza you can run ps to see current services running. Maybe its named something else when compiled from source - or its not just running? Did you try to start it before stopping it?

                                      I restart domoticz every night, and delete the log file. If you don't do this regularly, the disk will fill up, and domoticz will not be able to write any logs. I don't know what will happen with domoticz in that case
