Troubleshooting

Errors from ShineMonitor appear on the dashboard as ShineMonitor err 0x…: NAME.

What you see	What it means	Fix
0x0105 ERR_NOT_FOUND_USR	ShineMonitor doesn't know this username	SHINE_USER must match what you type at shinemonitor.com exactly, case included. Remove any SHINE_SUFFIX containing source=1. Redeploy
0x0010 ERR_PASSWORD_VERIF_FAIL	Wrong ShineMonitor password	Fix SHINE_PASS, redeploy
0x0104 ERR_NOT_FOUND_PLANT	No plant on this account, or a wrong plant id	Remove SHINE_PLANT_ID so Helio picks it automatically. Confirm the plant exists on shinemonitor.com
0x000C ERR_NO_RECORD	No data for that period	Normal before sunrise, on the first day, or for dates before the stick was online
Login is not configured	DASH_USER or DASH_PASSWORD missing	Add both, redeploy
Incorrect username or password	Dashboard login didn't match	Use your DASH_* values, not your ShineMonitor login. Usernames are case-insensitive; passwords aren't
Too many attempts	5 wrong passwords from your IP	Wait 15 minutes, or redeploy
Status No recent data	No reading for 30+ minutes in daylight	The stick is offline: check its NET / SRV lights and your router. See Connect the WiFi stick
Last reading shows a strange time	Plant timezone is wrong	Fix the timezone in ShineMonitor plant settings and set TIMEZONE
Yesterday, month or year too low	Cloud history only starts when the stick came online	Fills in from the next day
Numbers differ slightly from my utility meter	Different meters	1–2% is normal; the utility meter is official
Changed a variable, nothing happened	Env vars apply on deploy	Vercel → Deployments → ⋯ → Redeploy

Check your ShineMonitor login from a terminal

cp .env.example .env.local   # fill SHINE_USER and SHINE_PASS
npm run test:login

It prints your plants, today's units and lifetime units, or the exact error.
