I tried stop the recorder system, but is not sttoped, continue with the same… every few hours, everything at home is not working…
Any solution? For me, my smart home is very important, and im soooo tired about the situation, the CPU is working a lot, the RAM memory is using a lot, the BD file is growing up a lot in a few minutes…
if you see, in a few minutes the file is growing up a lot. Making all the system dont repond to anything, no light going on, or off… is so depresing situation
is not possible block the recorder???
I dont think is seriously… whole the home block for this recorder??? Come on… my house is not a game, i have so many “systems” blocked by the recorder… we need a solution please!
I had the same problem recently. Eventually traced my issue to a problem with the Synology NAS that is remotely hosting the MariaDB for my recorder. I had a RAID disk failure and when I replaced it the RAID rebuild/verification process took a few days (apparently not uncommon). During this rebuild time my recorder would stop working after a few hours with the limit reached message.
After completing the rebuild/verification the recorder problem stopped.
I was able to overcome this issue by replacing the external server with PostgreSQL. I did a fresh install for the base OS then installed PostgreSQL12. It seems to be ok now after a week. I tried to drop the database in the old MariaDB server but it did not solve the issue. Hope this will help.

In my case it was due to conflict (partial overlap) of automated backup and database purge - backup was not completely finished when database purge started. Since I shifted backup’s start it seems to be sorted out
ugh, I moved to Maria after my SQLlite DB was corrupt and lost around 12 months of energy data… not i’m hitting this also using this tool for backups and noticed it failed after the backup last night.
