Since you didn’t post what binding version is used see this post for installing the latest version to see if that helps.

Hi Michael,
I tested the 2.5(6) Beta. (renamed it as … 2.4.0.jar and created a new sha1).
But I still get the sitemap error:

Hi Michael,
I tested the 2.5(6) Beta. (renamed it as … 2.4.0.jar and created a new sha1).

To let someone know their name has been mentioned use the @ symbol, like @AndreasGremm.

[AndreasGremm]

I reduced the .items entries to a minimum and got rid of the error message.

While testing I observed that the “echo” is e.g. not showing the bluetoothMAC while the echospot do show the Mac-address of the connected bluetooth device in PaperUI.

// Bluetooth
String Echo_Kueche_BluetoothMAC “Kueche Bluetooth MAC Address” (Alexa_Kueche) {channel=“amazonechocontrol:echo:d9b9966d:G090ST0274460JSJ:bluetoothMAC”}
Switch Echo_Kueche_Bluetooth “Kueche Bluetooth” (Alexa_Kueche) {channel=“amazonechocontrol:echo:d9b9966d:G090ST0274460JSJ:bluetooth”}
String Echo_Kueche_BluetoothDeviceName “Kueche Bluetooth Device” (Alexa_Kueche) {channel=“amazonechocontrol:echo:d9b9966d:G090ST0274460JSJ:bluetoothDeviceName”}


[H102 (CM6.5 H102)]

Maybe an Echo version issue but I’m really not sure. @michi may have a better idea of what’s needed to correct this.

[michi (Michael Geramb)]

Yes, this is the callstack of the original binding, not the beta. The beta fix this issue

[AndreasGremm]

ok, how to install the beta?
As I still have the error, my installation of the beta seems to be wrong.
Any hint?

[H102 (CM6.5 H102)]

@AndreasGremm

my installation of the beta seems to be wrong.

Where did you place the jar file?

The correct location is /usr/share/openhab2/addons

[AndreasGremm]

Works like a charm
