Troubleshooting Common Issues#

1. Failed login attempt by an unauthorized party disallows authorized user login for 5 seconds#

Leaves the system vulnerable to a DDoS attack where the malicious agent repeatedly attempts logging in.

Workaround: Do not share the Intel® SceneScape URL with untrusted parties.

2. Postgres database will sometimes fail to start, resulting in an Internal Server Error (500) on login#

Workaround: Restart Intel® SceneScape using docker-compose down followed by docker-compose up -d from the project directory.

4. “WARNING: Service uses an undefined secret file” console messages on startup#

Several “undefined secret file” messages may be shown on startup, but the system should start normally.

5. When deploying Intel® SceneScape on a system with a zfs filesystem, container startup is slow#

Workaround: Change the docker storage driver from the default ‘overlay2’ to ‘zfs’.

6. Uploading files with unicode characters in filename results in 500 error from webserver#

Workaround: Rename files to remove any unicode characters prior to uploading.

7. Renaming a scene causes data to stop flowing on the message bus and UI#

Internally the system uses the scene name for subscribing to data, and there is a known issue where those internal subscriptions are not updated when the scene name is changed.

Workaround: Avoid renaming scenes in general. If a scene must be renamed, restart Intel® SceneScape using docker-compose down followed by docker-compose up -d from the project directory.

8. Issues are encountered when running in a virtual machine (VM)#

Various issues may be encountered when running within virtual machines, including performance, access to hardware, networking, and more. Intel® SceneScape is currently not validated for operating within a virtual machine (VM).

Mitigation: Running Intel® SceneScape in a VM is not recommended, but there are some best practices for mitigating related issues. Contact Intel® technical support if running in a VM is absolutely required.

9. Images with either dimension larger than 2048 cause 2D calibration page map view to be empty in web UI#

The issue is caused by limitations of VRAM on the GPU.

Mitigation: Use a system with a GPU that has a larger VRAM to run your web UI.

10. Direct API access to Kubernetes-only model directory uploader allows reading/writing other container files#

During testing, a scenario was discovered where a user with admin access to the web UI could potentially read and write arbitrary files inside the container as the Apache web server user.

Mitigation: Only use the model directory uploader webpage via the browser. Ensure administrator accounts use a strong password and credentials are kept secure.

11. Markerless camera calibration may not correctly calibrate the camera pose#

Mitigation: Markerless camera calibration is a beta feature that is still under development. Try a different calibration method in the interim.

12. No messages are observed on MQTT Explorer when using webuser account#

Mitigation: From 1.2.0 release, Access Control Lists are enforced. Use SceneScape admin account credentials to observe all MQTT topics.

13. Enabling “Live View” results in memory utilization monotonically increases over time#

Mitigation: “Live View” is meant for explainability and debugging. Disable “Live View” when SceneScape is deployed in production environments.

14. Upgrading database from previous release versions fails#

Mitigation: Recreate the scene configuration in the new deployment
