Constant rebooting on "Devices" page

I'm completely new to the subject and don't know if this is normal. I have a device with a temperature and pressure sensor and a small OLED display. When I open the web interface and switch to the device page, my device keeps restarting. I think I've also noticed that the device doesn't stop restarting after a while and then restarts permanently - can this be normal?

That's not normal or as expected.
What kind of ESP device do you have, and how is it powered? A stable power supply is important, as well as properly connected wiring, many breadboards and their wiring have poor contacts, and can cause issues like this.

Also which build are you using (exact file name as shown on the sysinfo page)

Can you also look at the free memory?

I use an ESP8266 with the build 20240229. I supply it with power from the USB port.

The following is displayed under Memory:
Free RAM: 15400
Heap Max Free Block: 14688
Heap Fragmentation: 5%
Free Stack: 3680

However, it is then in a state in which it does not permanently reboot as it only does this on the device page.

Can you try a later build?
See: https://td-er.nl/ESPEasy/latest/
This can be flashed via the web browser if you're using Chrome (or Edge???)

Or you can download the all.zip file and pick the appropriate file from the zip and update via the tools page

I flashed the latest version 20240407 and now it works.

Thank you very much for your support.

I still have a problem with a formula but I'll open a new thread for that.
