DIYHue switches between OFFLINE and ONLINE

Add-ons Bindings

I have a Deconz-DIYHue Setup and unfortunately I can’t use the Deconz binding (tons of exceptions thown in OpenHab) so I went with the Hue binding. The bridge is being found and the things can be set up, however my bridge keeps connecting and disconnecting

My hue bridge is set up like this

Bridge hue:bridge:1 [ ipAddress="192.168.xx.xx", userName="xxx", pollingInterval=10, sensorPollingInterval=250 ]
{    
   ...
}

I figured out the connect/disconnect events correspond with the polling interval.

How do I get rid of the disconnects? They’re spamming my log and persistence.

Thanks!

//edit:

When adding the bridge through PaperUI, the disconnects can bee seen in the logs as well. So it’s not a configuration issue. DIYHue works fine with the hue app on Android and iOS

Silly question: Did you press the authorize button on the bridge after configuring it in openHAB ?

Hi,
thanks for your reply.
Yes, I have authorized my Hue binding in DIYHue, I can even control lights

However the bridge is switching between offline and online with every polling. In the following sample, I set the polling interval to 30s

2019-08-20 11:31:47.265 [hingStatusInfoChangedEvent] - 'hue:bridge:1' changed from OFFLINE: Hue bridge connection lost. to ONLINE

Why is polling marking the bridge as offline?
