Background – main RPi3 running OH2 (snapshot versions for many versions) and a z-stick Gen 5 with circa 45 items, second RPi2 with Razberry daughter board running z-wave with 8-10 items. OH2 discovers the Razberry devices via the z-way binding. Everything works (including controlling the z-way di…

If they are still in your DB, you should be able to grep for them in the jsondb files. Something like: grep -i item name /var/lib/openhab2/jsondb But there was I read the wire is that there is something else that thinks these items exist and is trying to change then though the rest API and failing…

There is a known issue with the jsondb files not deleting the item/thing links. I just stop openhab and then manually delete them out.

Just FYI, Alexa was added after this problem appeared–so definitely non-causal. It’s something about the renaming of things thru Paper UI that is causal. I’ll grep the jsondb and let you know. @rgerrans is probably right here. I’ll confirm when I try it.

@rgerrans @rlkoshak Confirming that the items in the vagrant log messages are NOT in the jsondb. So there is some other reference somewhere …

[image] bob_dickenson: Confirming that the items in the vagrant log messages are NOT in the jsondb. Just to confirm, you looked in org.eclipse.smarthome.core.thing.link.ItemThingLink.json ? You could try clearing the cache and tmp directory during a restart.

I’ll admit this is a weird one. But it almost had to be something"external" making rest calls that is causing the problem. You don’t have these items lingering around in a sitemap or HABpanel do you? Most everything else in OH will use the core API and bypass the rest API. As @rgerrans mentioned, …

Then I’d try Plan B of emptying cache and remp plus look for old config files (I had that issue with another binding where the config file got left after I deleted the binding, just don’t remember which directory it was in)

No joy after clearing the cache and tmp prior to a restart. I do have a theory now – I think the issue may be with the second RPi3 which is hosting the Razberry z-wave board. The Razberry board ships with its own (crude) automation software BUT (at the time) it was capable of discovering more zwa…

All right. Here’s what I did for quick and dirty test. In OH2 items file, created items which matched the “old names” with same channel parameters. e.g. //Switch zz_sw_siren_demo "Demo Siren" ["Switchable"] {channel="zway:zwayDevice:192_168_11_101:11:switchPowerOutlet-ZWayVDev_zway_11-0-37"} Sw…
