I have openhab2(working nicely). I tried to upgrade but I am getting stuck on the repo. I am on centos.

Hi @Marc_W1,

The repo name should be https://openhab.jfrog.io/openhab/openhab-linuxpkg-rpm

Thanks, that almost worked, I needed to add testing to the end. Just for others, did i miss something or should the install notes be updated with the “rpm” repo.

yum-config-manager --add-repo=https://openhab.jfrog.io/openhab/openhab-linuxpkg-rpm/testing

I might have found a bug, when flipping back in forth with the following same line, adding { ga=“Switch” }, the switch rule was not executing unless i restarted openhab.

Switch FiosTrigger  "External trigger [%s]" { ga="Switch" }
or
Switch FiosTrigger  "External trigger [%s]"

2nd issue, the following switches was working in oh2 for a year, does not work with oh3, any ideas?

Switch Fios2       "Fios2"       <light> (LivingRoom) [ "Switchable" ] { http=">[ON:POST:http://0005cd2df566.fios-router.home/MainZone/index.put.asp:cmd0=PutZone_InputFunction%2FSAT/CBL] >[OFF:POST:http://0005cd2df566.fios-router.home/MainZone/index.put.asp:cmd0=PutZone_InputFunction%2FGAME]" }
Switch ChromeCast2 "ChromeCast2" <light> (LivingRoom) [ "Switchable" ] { http=">[ON:POST:http://0005cd2df566.fios-router.home/MainZone/index.put.asp:cmd0=PutZone_InputFunction%2FGAME] >[OFF:POST:http://0005cd2df566.fios-router.home/MainZone/index.put.asp:cmd0=PutZone_InputFunction%2FSAT/CBL]" }

So what is the relation to this topic ???

If you think it is a bug, open an Issue on GitHub to get it resolved or explained.

  1. topic: It’s unclear, what you want to achieve with { ga="Switch" }.
    This is not a valid nomenclature of OH to my knowledge.
    Not enough information to dig any deeper into this issue.
  2. issue: You are using the old HTTP binding nomenclature.
    You have to use now {channel= “http:…”}
    Go to things. Add a new HTTP thing.
    Add a channel according your requirements.
    Use channel topic to link your item.

I found the in { ga=“Switch” } https://www.openhab.org/docs/ecosystem/google-assistant/ this page.

I was able to set up what i needed using a rule and not the simple 1 liner which is ok, just more confusing for newbies. I have not found where the new nomenclature documentation is yet, just searching all pages on openhab.org. I know before OH3 is release the proper documentation will be release too.

So the 2 bugs I mentions, only 1 is still open. Bug 1, my fault; nomenclature, Bug 2, I still need to restart my OH3 sometimes to see the actually switch work. My switch shows the switch going from on/off, but it is not actually doing anything until I restart OH3. I did not look into the logs help out yet.

Sorry for the slight highjakcing of the post, after I installed OH3, i just jumped back into this page for help
