I am pretty sure that the zwave 1.9.0 jar that is installed when you install from the Paper ui, is not the latest snapshot from a few days ago that is supposed to fix the zwave binding becoming uninitialised
Hi Kai
Sorry - missed this. It’s not a good idea right now I think as I think it would be better to sort out the branches first since the current master is not working with most of the latest esh services.
Is oh not going to support bundles in the addons folder in cuter or is this just temporary?
Well, if the branches are messy, the situation isn’t any better when it is not hosted under the openHAB org
Are you saying that there is currently no working HABmin for OH2 available then? If this is the case, we should indeed wait. If you have some other branch from which a usable version an be built, than we should consider building it on the official build server, deploy it to Bintray and include it as a (Karaf) feature in the OH distribution (that was the discussion here).
It continues to support it, but it comes with a much more mighty mechanism, the Karaf features. They allow now a full dependency management, so you don’t have to tell people anymore: If you install HABmin, you also need Z-Wave and X and Y - you simply declare the dependencies and the stuff is installed for you.
The current branch hasn’t been worked on for a few months other than the occasional bug fix. This branch supports the OH1 Zwave binding. There’s another branch which is being worked on but it only supports the oh2 Zwave binding - my plan is to merge this once the oh2 Zwave is available, which I hope is in the ext few days. When I get home from travels I will be creating a new test binding for a couple of people that have been helping - this contains the output of the new online database. If this all looks ok then I’ll make it available more generally and merge Habmin. I would suggest to wait till this is done.
Ok, but that means that you have to support people meanwhile on how to get the ZWave1 binding with HABmin correctly installed on OH2 (as discussed above). My suggestion was to offer the ZWave1 binding for the time being.
But if you are confident that the v2 is getting closer now, we can of course wait for it - even better
Yes- my thought was to get the oh2 binding done otherwise I need to support too many different options and it all take away the time to get the OH2 Zwave working.
There are a few people using the oh2 binding now so while I’m sure it will have some issues when different devices start to be used, it is working reasonably well I think. If I ca get the database import working then that should solve the maintenance issue - I’ll know that in a day or so.
@chris where is the code for the OH2 binding? wouldn’t mind to do some testing and give some feedback. i’m not using OH as my primary z-wave controller, its bound as a secondary so i wont be growing impatient any time soon, but it might be an interesting use case for you to have the code tested against
It’s in my oh2 repository, but I would be very careful using this since I’ve made a lot of changes over the last few days that are not currently synced with the repo as I’m travelling and working on it on the train.
The best thing you could do to help is to update the database (as per the other discussions) since until your devices are added, you won’t be able use it anyway…
I am hoping to get a version available in the next few days.
@chris thanks for the update, if we are only talking a few days away then i will wait until your happy that you have pushed a version you are more confident with. i will definitely take a look at the other discussion regarding the device support, i am pretty new to OH however i have written quite a few zwave device types for Smartthings so hopefully this experience will help me here
I’m completely new to openHAB and eventually got habmin2 working with OH2. The forums wouldn’t allow me to post more than 2 links in my post because I’m a new user so the full text is here:
@analogue What functions/features are working for you in habmin2 and what version of OH2 are you running (beta 2?). I’m running beta2 and the latest habmin from master, it starts, is visible as an interface and I can “login” to habmin. Almost none of the functions seems to be working except listing of things, crude representations of the sitemaps etc.
As mentioned above it probably has to do with the esh services, would that mean that downgrading to OH2 before the betas (and Karaf/esh) would resolve some of the issues, @chris?
Hello.
I’ve just installed it one more time in the new Beta 2.
It is pretty simple:
Unzip the OH2 file according to your OS
Start OH2, acces it from http://localhost:8080 - select the paperUI (use Chrome, IE don’t Work), go to bindings and select the Zwave binding install it…
Then place the Habin file in the Addons folder and restart OH2 - then Habmin2 shows up when you access the address localhost:8080
^^ creating a group in paper ui with that partly breaks habmin2 for me. -> Thing configuration is blocked and does not load when a group was added. after removing it again habmin worked again.
I have the same issue. And I follow your steps.
the habmin2 does not come up.
One thing I notice is that,
paper UI->extention->zwave,
the zwave version is 1.9.0.b2
However, the zwave from Habmin2 is org.openhab.binding.zwave_2.0.0.201603151336.jar
Question1
Is that a issue?
Question2
Btw, anybody have any idea when I install zwave binding via paper UI->extention->zwave,
anything we can check to see the binding is installed?
Thank you and any information will be greatly appreciated.
It is a github downloading problem.
Although the file size is incorrect, it does not show on the file name.
pay attention to the note: NOTE. Downloading binaries off Github can be problematic - they are often truncated. To avoid this, click on the RAW link when you select the file you want to download. If HABmin fails to run, check the file size is correct.
