Report exporting to xlsx issue on production server

cosmica year ago

Hello everyone,

Recently, I have been experiencing an issue when trying to export Route and other reports on the production server. However, there is no problem when I try it on the development server. The problem only arises when the system is deployed and running on the production server. Can anyone suggest what might be causing this issue? Thank you in advance.

What is the problem? What's the error message?

cosmica year ago

No error has been shown. I also checked the logs. After clicking export, it is just redirecting to main page.

What version are you using?

cosmica year ago

traccar v5.3 I am using.

Try upgrading to the latest version first.

But I remember it was possible in previous version also. On the other hand it is perfectly working on development server. Is there any other stuff that might be causing the issue?

Could be something else of course, but if you don't want to upgrade, then I won't be able to help you.

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but I am also getting a '500 - server error' when exporting a large amount of data. Logs show:
WARN: /api/reports/route/xlsx - Java heap space - OutOfMemoryError

The centos 7 VM has 2G RAM and Traccar is the only service running on the machine. Is there a way to increase the heap in the config file or do I just need to increase the RAM? And if so, by how much?

UPDATE: Found the answer here.

The device sends 7200 positions per day and I'm trying to export 21 days, so ~150k positions. Running version 5.10 (latest).

I increased Java heap size to 2G. I also increased the VM RAM from 2G to 4G. When I "SHOW" the route of interest, it takes around 25s to process, then if i just change show to EXPORT, it takes forever and all processors are busy for a long time, eventually giving me a 503 - Service Unavailable error.

And logs looks like this

2024-01-02 13:11:22  INFO: user: 1, report: route, from: 2023-12-12 00:00, to: 2024-01-02 13:00, devices: [482], groups: []

Considering the time it takes to SHOW (abt 25s) vs EXPORT for the same data (abt 9 minutes before crashing), I am wondering if there's something else that might be causing the issue.

Excel report cannot handle hundreds of thousands of records. It's not designed for that.

Best wishes for '24.
Is there another way to get a report?
The devices are updating their position every 5s - this gives 7200 positions per day. If it is not designed to handle reports for this use-case, what is the minimum recommended update interval?

You can use API to export is some other format, like JSON or CSV.
