This page shows how I edited my wview archive database to patch in data values that were NULL when my Vpro2 sensors battery went dead in the middle of the night.

Become root.
Stop wview!


root@wview:~# sudo /usr/bin/service wview stop
Shutting down wview daemons...

Make a backup of the database


root@wview:~# cd /usr/local/var/wview/archive # /var/lib/wview/archive if installed using apt
root@wview:~# sqlite3 wview-archive.sdb .dump | sqlite3 archive-backup.sdb
root@wview:~# mv archive_backup.sdb /tmp

    The first crash was DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL which resulted in a STOP 0x000000D1. The
    error was in VIDEOPRT.SYS. Search turns up nothing specific, but an upgrade of video drivers may be the answer.
    The second crash was a STOP 0x0000008E in WIN32K.SYS. Search turns up this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/834450
    The third crash is DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL which resulted in a STOP 0x0000000A
    The fourth crash is again DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL which resulted in a STOP 0x000000D1 VIDEOPRT.SYS.
    Another STOP 0x0000008E!!!
