Can someone help me with this log why PC wakes regularly throughout night?

[Wolfie81]

Ive tried so many trouble shooting steps.

I have AppleRTC on, I have deselected everything in energy saver, and I have a power management plist for my CPU.

Can someone help me work out what this means? I do have a bluetooth/wifi card...

Thanks!

Put this in terminal and give use the output

log show --style syslog | fgrep "Wake reason"

Thank you for the reply.

Ive done that and I've taken a segment out of the log. Any clues? I am surprised to see Apple RTC on there, it is ticked in clover...
Ive also attached a screenshot of the original log.

Im now going to try

1. Turn off automatic timezone date keeping
2. WIFI off.

Does anyone have any other ideas that might be a little more concrete and less flimsy like mine are?
Cheers.

 

[carpentryplus25]

Ok things needed before we can help you any farther
Hardware specs
Copy of IOreg
Config.plist
Any patched dsdt
All oem acpi tables ( boot to clover screen and hold f4 for 5 seconds it will dump them in /Volumes/EFI/EFI/clover/ACPI/origin)

I'm at work right now using a mobile device and won't be able to look at these til tomorrow maybe someone else can chime in til then

Have you implemented native Powermanagement? have you done any ACPI patching? need files. Press F4 at Clover boot, attach Clover folder from EFI removing themes ZIP attach. Attach ioreg. [Guide] How to Make a Copy of IOReg | tonymacx86.com

Guys, I FOUND THE SOLUTION!

I don't know why or how, and maybe some of you smart people might be able to look into why..
I replaced the mDNS Responder from my PC with those in the following link (post 65). I believe these mDNSResponder files are ElCap.

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/to...c-alarm-how-to-deactivate/page-4#entry2071984

Now these instructions in the link talk about deleting the discoveryD files but as Sierra does not have them, it is irrelevant. All I did was replace the mDNS files and add the plist, follow the relevant instructions in terminal and my computer now sleeps like a baby!

Tested for the past 2 nights and checked with Console wake and it happily sleeps!
Hackintosh is now basically perfect (aside from wanting Pascal support).

Anyone elaborate why this solution works?

On a side note, I do have native Powermanagenet downloaded from this website for my CPU and no DSDT or ACPI addition/patching. Its a pretty stock standard install. System specs are underneath my username

Am I better trying to find a more native solution?

"Copy mDNSResponder and mDNSResponderHelper to usr/sbin"

I cannot paste usr/bin folder these items. MacOs did not give permission. How did you do it?
I only do "Copy com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist and com.apple.mDNSResponderHelper.plist to Library/LaunchDaemons".
After run the terminal codes.

Sorry, I'm not near my hack for the next few days but from what I remember right click the file, go to info and change permissions to read and write for everyone.
