Errors when activating 'mail action'

Add-ons Actions
1

I’ve configured my whole OpenHAB-configuration using configuration-files. I’d like to send e-mail on certain events, so I’m trying to install the mail-action.

In the adding.cfg file I’ve put the next line:

action = mail

When I look in the logging, direct after saving adding.cfg, I see a lot of errors passing by.
Most of the errors seems to be related to Modbus… I use a lot of this in my configuration, but I don’t see any relation between mail and Modbus.

Does anybody have an idea what can cause this?

This is a part of the logging direct after activating the mail-action:

Maybe a stupid question, excuse me for that, but where can I find the ‘Modbus 2.5.10 binding’?

4

Either upgrade to the latest OH 2.5.X ( which currenlty is 2.5.11 ) version or go to https://openhab.jfrog.io/openhab/libs-pullrequest-local/org/openhab/addons/bundles/org.openhab.binding.modbus/ and go to the related subdirectory.

Thank you very much @Wolfgang_S. You where right, it solved the load of errors. But unfortunately
it didn’t solve my whole problem.

I still get an error that it ‘failed to install’ every minute:

2020-12-19 07:52:13.079 [ERROR] [core.karaf.internal.FeatureInstaller] - Failed installing ‘openhab-action-mail’
2020-12-19 07:53:12.684 [ERROR] [core.karaf.internal.FeatureInstaller] - Failed installing ‘openhab-action-mail’
2020-12-19 07:54:11.864 [ERROR] [core.karaf.internal.FeatureInstaller] - Failed installing ‘openhab-action-mail’

I’m quite inexperienced in solving this kind of problems, does anybody have an idea to point me in the right direction?

6

I would suggest that you use the mail binding which is a V2 binding instead of openhab-action-mail which is a V1 binding.
Usage is bit different ( but documented )

I did have some small issues, but finally I succeeded…

Thanks you very much for your help @Wolfgang_S
