  • Temperature sensors not detected

    Hi,
    I’m using BurnInTest Linux V5.0 (command-line version) and encountering an issue where it fails to detect any temperature sensors.

    I’ve installed lm-sensors, hddtemp, and smartctl as recommended.
    These tools work fine when I run them manually and do report temperature information.
    However, when I use BurnInTest, it cannot retrieve this data.


    this is the main menu:

    and this is the temperature screen:

    Here’s my current temperature configuration in the config file:​


    ## Temperature settings
    <Temperature>
    ## Auto select which temperature sensors to watch
    AutoSelectSensors

    ## Temperature sample time in seconds (min 5)
    SamplePeriod 5

    ## Scale - use either Celcius or Fahrenheit
    UseCelcius
    #UseFahrenheit

    ## Stop testing if a sensor records a temperature higher than the threshold
    #StopTestOnHighTemp

    ## If not using AutoSelectSensors can add sensor names to look for here, must match what BurnInTest displays eg "CPU 0 Core 1"
    ## One per line between the "Sensors" tag (up to maxium 64), threshold after a ','
    #<Sensors>
    #CPU 0 Core 0,90
    #CPU 0 Core 1,90
    #CPU 0 Core 2,90
    #HDD 0,90
    #</Sensors>



    I’ve also tried commenting out AutoSelectSensors and manually specifying sensors under <Sensors> (e.g., CPU 0 / HDD 0), but I’m getting the same results.

    Has anyone faced a similar issue or knows what could be going wrong? Any help would be appreciated!

    Can you start BurnInTest Linux with the '-d' command line parameter and let it run for few minutes and then send in the logs?

    Temperature collection uses the output from the sensors and hddtemp commands in Linux.​ Can you also provide the output from those commands?

      Thanks for your reply.
      logs and outputs are attached.
      I do see a lot of errors like this in the debug log:
      Thu Jan 30 20:57:39 2025 - 610883 Packet was not an ICMP_ECHOREPLY (error -1)
      when it gets to GetHDDTemps, but I'm not sure what it means.

      thanks.

        Note you are using a pretty old build of BITLinux (1003), can you try updating to the latest build (1017) and see if the issue still occurs?

        There have been some changes to temperature collection which may address your issue.
        If issue persists, can we get the debug logs from that?

          Using the latest build indeed worked.
          Thanks!
