iCloud SSL issue again

I had another NullPointerException a few days ago, which meant the binding stopped auto-updating locations. I have tried to fix it, the PR is already merged, so it should be available in the next release.

Hi guys,

This has been working fine for me for perfectly since I updated to 2.5.2.202002010827 untilā€¦I rebooted a few days ago.

Now Iā€™m getting the following error on my account things:

OFFLINE - COMMUNICATION_ERROR java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: General SSLEngine problem

and so my actual devices are stuck on initializing.

Iā€™ve rebooted a couple of times since and it worked once for a few minutes then dropped out againā€¦any ideas / thoughtsā€¦do I just need to reboot again and crops my fingers or should I uninstall and reinstall the addon etc? Anyone else had anything similar?

EDIT

I downloaded the jar again and reinstalled itā€¦ seems to be working again at the moment. Will update if anything changes, perhaps the reboot removed something that I hadnā€™t committed / savedā€¦

What openHAB version are you running?

I have made some additional changes to the code which is not present here in the jars, but is included in the latest 2.5.3 release.

226

Iā€™m old school, 2.4.0-1.

I just canā€™t get myself to upgrade, this build has been rock solid for me for years and I just CBA to risk messing up / losing rules by upgrading my openhabian buildā€¦

227

Then download a newer jar from Jenkins to use in 2.4

228

Thatā€™s exactly what I did earlier, seems to have fixed it, but it also seemed to be the same jar as the one I hadā€¦I must have just annoyed something with the rebootā€¦

Thanks

Hi, what version you would recommend downloading when running old stable 2.4 like @MadFrankie ? I have tried several versions but with no luck.

I have resolved the dependencies, binging is listed as Active when running command bundle:list. No errors from the binding in the log and the iCloud Account Thing has status Offline - Communication Error - iCloud response invalid: null.

Thanks

None of these will work on old 2.5 version, because there were several changes in the binding since, which is required to work. Thatā€™s why you are getting a null response.

Either upgrade to OH3 or manually add the changes since OH 3 to the binding and build a jar. Nothing special have been changed (like dependecies or anything), you just need to change a few strings (if I remember correctly)
