2.3.0 I have looked at several topics regarding log spamming by the Chromecast binding. Either it doesn’t seem to be what I’m seeing or they are old, or they are idle. Is there some way to trace which particular Chromecast generated the logged errors. The log output does not seem to provide any kind of link. Is there anything uniquely identifiable that I can take into, say Karaf, to figure this out? @vzorglub had made this suggested workaround - [[SOLVED] Chromecast binding freezes openHab? - #2 by vzorglub](https://community.openhab.org/t/solved-chromecast-binding-freezes-openhab/46017/2) I have given this a try but, alas, it seems that I am still seeing Chromecast binding errors in the log. I have installed the Network binding to ping the “physical” Chromecasts. But I also have two Chromecast audio groups (i.e., no ping option for these). I edited each network device I added to set the refresh interval to 1000ms. @vzorglub - Is there anything else I needed to do? The log does not give information on which Chromecast generated the error (if it does, I haven’t been able to decipher it). I wonder if there’s a similar narcolepsy issue with audio groups? If so, I don’t know of a way to keep them “awake”. Regards. Mike ---

No, but then I only have one device… ---

Did you try upgrading to the snapshot (or milestone release). As @wborn suggested one of the issues you reported is solved in the snapshot version. ---

I’ve created a [org.openhab.binding.chromecast-2.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar](https://github.com/wborn/openhab2-addons/releases/download/update-chromecast-api-lib/org.openhab.binding.chromecast-2.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar) that also contains the forthcoming chromecast-java-api-v2 fixes for: - [JsonMappingExceptions due to missing type ids: DEVICE\_ADDED, DEVICE\_REMOVED, DEVICE\_UPDATED](https://github.com/vitalidze/chromecast-java-api-v2/issues/103) - [NullPointerException in setDestinationId(..) when starting to cast](https://github.com/vitalidze/chromecast-java-api-v2/issues/104) It also includes the following 2.4.0-SNAPSHOT specific PRs: - [[Chromecast] Update API library to 0.10.3](https://github.com/openhab/openhab2-addons/pull/3759) - [[Chromecast] Fix refresh scheduling issues](https://github.com/openhab/openhab2-addons/pull/3813) So that should resolve quite some issues compared to the Chromecast Binding that is part of the openHAB 2.3.0 release. 🙂 I gave this 2.4.0-SNAPSHOT JAR a brief test with 2.3.0 and it seems to work properly so far. * * * To use it: 1. Uninstall the existing Chromecast Binding (Paper UI → Add-ons → Bindings) 2. Copy [org.openhab.binding.chromecast-2.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar](https://github.com/wborn/openhab2-addons/releases/download/update-chromecast-api-lib/org.openhab.binding.chromecast-2.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar) to the [openHAB addons directory](https://www.openhab.org/docs/installation/linux.html#file-locations) To revert to the default 2.3.0 Chromecast Binding: 1. Delete `org.openhab.binding.chromecast-2.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar` again from the openHAB addons directory 2. Install the Chromecast Binding (Paper UI → Add-ons → Bindings) * * * With this JAR you’ll probably still occasionally see some disconnection warnings (issue [#3770](https://github.com/openhab/openhab2-addons/issues/3770)) These can be suppressed by raising the log level in the [Console](https://www.openhab.org/docs/administration/console.html) with: `log:set error su.litvak.chromecast.api.v2` ---

- I have installed the 2.4.0 snapshot of the binding - I have set logging to the Litvak library to ERROR - I have the Network binding pinging each Chromecast every minute - I have set a custom logger for the binding set to TRACE level logging I will let openHAB run for a few hours to collect data in the log. I’ll provide an update then. Regards. Mike P.S. Should I replace my chromecast-java-api-v2 library with the latest development branch version? I understand that it is not prudent to put that development version in the openHAB package. But for testing purposes, I could put in in my environment. If so, where can I get that newer library and how do I replace it (and archive the current version)? ---

Preliminary information… the binding appears to be experiencing an “event” approximately every 30 seconds. It is logging a set of these for each event. ```auto 20-Sep-2018 00:05:09.627 [DEBUG] [inding.chromecast.internal.ChromecastEventReceiver] - Received an 'UNKNOWN' event (class=class org.codehaus.jackson.JsonNode) 20-Sep-2018 00:05:20.217 [DEBUG] [ab.binding.chromecast.internal.ChromecastScheduler] - Scheduling connection 20-Sep-2018 00:05:20.220 [DEBUG] [ab.binding.chromecast.internal.ChromecastScheduler] - Canceling connection 20-Sep-2018 00:05:32.778 [DEBUG] [ab.binding.chromecast.internal.ChromecastScheduler] - Scheduling connection 20-Sep-2018 00:05:32.783 [DEBUG] [ab.binding.chromecast.internal.ChromecastScheduler] - Canceling connection 20-Sep-2018 00:05:36.556 [DEBUG] [ab.binding.chromecast.internal.ChromecastCommander] - Failed to request media status with a running app: Waiting for response timed out ``` The number of pairs of `Scheduling connection` and `Canceling connection` log entries between the `Received` and `Failed` log entries varies - I’m seeing anywhere between 1 to 3 pairs per event. I’ve seen no Chromecast related errors or warnings in the openhab log. Before tonight’s changes (new binding, litvak library logging level), even with the custom Chromecast binding logger setup, I was seeing openhab.log Chromecast related log entries. ---

> [@meingraham](#): > > If so, where can I get that newer library and how do I replace it (and archive the current version)? You are already using it because it is contained within the `org.openhab.binding.chromecast-2.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar`. If you would unzip it you’ll find a `lib` directory with a `api-v2-0.10.4.jar`. 🙂 ---

See also PR [#4032](https://github.com/openhab/openhab2-addons/pull/4032). So the JAR is no longer necessary when using the latest SNAPSHOT build. 🙂 ---

> [@wborn](#): > > the JAR is no longer necessary when using the latest SNAPSHOT build I’m holding off on taking the plunge on the full openHAB 2.4.0-SNAPSHOT. I’m probably too conservative, but I’m a little reticent to try anything other than the “released” openHAB. I’m OK with some baby steps, e.g., one binding at a time. Can I still just “upgrade” my Chromecast binding to this latest update on top of my 2.3.0 openHAB by downloading the latest Chromecast binding JAR? Can you make it available in the same download location as before? Regards. Mike ---

OK, new binding deployed. Getting repeated BaseThingHandler warnings.

Wouter, I stopped openHAB and then started it again a few seconds later (to avoid the Jetty error 503 problem). This time the Chromecast Things were not added (I suppose because they’d been added the first time this new binding started up). This time I am not getting the Handler already disposed warnings either. Maybe it only occurs the very first time? Perhaps a clue in finding what caused the issue? > [@wborn](#): > > either the 2.3.0 binding was running again or the issue is not fully solved.

@wborn Wouter, I updated to the latest openHAB SNAPSHOT (2.4.0~20180929001318-1 (Build #1375)) using openhabian-config. Doing so cleared my Karaf log setting for the litvak library log level back to WARN. The library is still generating warnings: ```auto 2018-09-29 01:14:03.350 [WARN] [su.litvak.chromecast.api.v2.Channel] - Error while reading su.litvak.chromecast.api.v2.ChromeCastException: Remote socket closed at su.litvak.chromecast.api.v2.Channel.read(Channel.java:425) ~[188:org.openhab.binding.chromecast:2.4.0.201809261735] at su.litvak.chromecast.api.v2.Channel.access$200(Channel.java:51) ~[188:org.openhab.binding.chromecast:2.4.0.201809261735] at su.litvak.chromecast.api.v2.Channel$ReadThread.run(Channel.java:137) [188:org.openhab.binding.chromecast:2.4.0.201809261735] 2018-09-29 01:14:03.359 [WARN] [su.litvak.chromecast.api.v2.Channel] - <-- null payload in message 2018-09-29 01:17:40.515 [WARN] [su.litvak.chromecast.api.v2.Channel] - Error while reading su.litvak.chromecast.api.v2.ChromeCastException: Remote socket closed at su.litvak.chromecast.api.v2.Channel.read(Channel.java:425) ~[188:org.openhab.binding.chromecast:2.4.0.201809261735] at su.litvak.chromecast.api.v2.Channel.access$200(Channel.java:51) ~[188:org.openhab.binding.chromecast:2.4.0.201809261735] at su.litvak.chromecast.api.v2.Channel$ReadThread.run(Channel.java:137) [188:org.openhab.binding.chromecast:2.4.0.201809261735] 2018-09-29 01:17:40.523 [WARN] [su.litvak.chromecast.api.v2.Channel] - <-- null payload in message ``` These _ **may only be debug messages and normal** _, but I wanted to include them for you to be aware.

@wborn OK. I’ll set the logging level back to ERROR to avoid that logging. BTW, the “handler” issue did not occur after this “complete” openHAB update. Should I set the Chromecast logging back to WARN or ERROR now instead of DEBUG? Have you all the information you want? Thanks. Mike ---

Yes I have more than enough info! 😄 I also still see the exceptions on my own setup. ---

EDIT: I answer myself 😉 1. Locate the URL of the jar file 2. Find the ID of the binding you want to update in openHAB console using: bundle:list -s |grep _YOURBINDING_ 3. Run: bundle:update _ID BINDINGURL_ hey Michael, could you give me a hint and explain how to just add this new binding to OH 2.3 rather than upgrading OH to the lastest snapshot?
