bug

I'm not sure when it started, but everything seems to be running fine. However, …my OpenHAB log is filled with errors like this: There are two related community threads with many examples: [Amazon Binding: A Lot of Errors in Log File](https://community.openhab.org/t/amazon-binding-a-lot-of-errors-in-log-file/162922) [Exceptions Since 04 March 2025](https://community.openhab.org/t/exceptions-since-04-march-2025/162879) Here's my example. The full log is longer, but I’m unsure if it contains credentials, so I’m sharing only the beginning: [log.txt](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/19121143/log.txt)

Hello,

I have the same problem with the SmartHome/J Amazon Echo Control Binding (version 4.3.1).

Is the Amazon Echo Control Binding (version 4.3.3) the same binding? Would a test with the binding from openHAB Distribution be useful?

Every hour the error message appears at the end of the post in the openhab.log. Can I help with troubleshooting / debugging?

Thank you,
Reinhard

I am using the Amazon Echo Control binding to have my Echo devices announce something via their Speak channel. I also see errors in the recent weeks, when I send a command to that channel.

In the log files there is now an error:

2025-03-25 08:45:19.624 [WARN ] [mazonechocontrol.internal.Connection] - Parsing json failed:

After that error comes an HTML file, which contains an Alexa login screen.

I already tried to logout and login again at https://myserver:myport/amazonechocontrol/, but it did not help.

Simply logging in and out doesn’t help, however read:
Github answer

That worked for me!

[Ediit] I did not wait long enough! After some tume (1 houre) the errors started again.

I unfortunately have to report the case where the linked answer above has not resolved error logs like the following. These have occurred several times since following the linked steps.

same here. I reseted my amazon account connected everything new in OH.
After a few hours flooding of log file is back

k3067e3 · April 1, 2025, 2:23pm

I changed the 2FA to Amazon.de from SMS to Google Authenticator app, so I don’t get those annoying SMS any more.

I also tried a complete installation from scratch with Openhabian an OH 4.3.3, problem with those errors still exist.

In the new logviewer it looks like this

This comes every few minutes

siod · April 3, 2025, 9:46am

same problem here, Alexa also doesn´t speak anymore on rulebased triggers.

edit: usin OH Ver. openHAB 4.3.3
Release Build

siod · April 3, 2025, 9:52am

yes, I had that , too. It stopped when I changed my Amazon pw. Did not connect it with Openhab, now it makes more sense…

antcan · April 5, 2025, 6:49pm

Same problem here

helmar74 · April 9, 2025, 4:58am

No quite sure.
But I received the last “log flooding” 2025-04-08 02:46:44.826
After this Timestamp no further log’s appeared in openhab.log

Everything working as expected, incl. TTS.
All Amazon Things are ONLINE.

Maybe Amazon changed something?
Will have a eye on it…

MikeJMajor · April 9, 2025, 5:13am

Same here, it’s been over 24 hours without any errors.

helmar74 · April 15, 2025, 5:52am

Still no new log entries in openhab.log.
Seem’s it was fixed on Amazon side
