[SOLVED] Is KNX2 binding broken in OH 2.4?

[fpracek (Fausto)]

Dear,
I configured my system in knx2, but after a few hours of operation, the thing linked to the interface goes into an ‘unknowed’ state. I also tried the manual restart of the binding and sometimes it starts again, while others don’t …

this is my thing file:

Is it a my problem only?

this should help you:

[SOLVED] Knx (version 2.x) binding losing its connection almost every day

For those facing this issue, the below post from @lewie solved this problem for me: (see also https://github.com/openhab/openhab2-addons/issues/5281) in many versions, configurations and environments I use the KNX binding almost daily. The KNX 2 binding is not yet perfect and has a few pitfalls, but it can run stable in almost all cases. In any case, it is similarly robust as the KNX 1.x binding was! The following rules of conduct have led most constellations to success: 1.) In principle,…

[sceppi]

To illustrate the above “less is more” principle, my knx.things file is now as short as:

Bridge knx:ip:BAOS771 [
	type="TUNNEL",
	ipAddress="192.168.2.5",
	autoReconnectPeriod=60
]	{
Thing ...
}

So: no localIp, no readingPause, etc etc…
Also: remove the address, fetch, pingInterval and readInterval properties from your Things

Implementing the above completely solved my problem

[fpracek (Fausto)]

Thanks a lot to all!!!
I changed my bridge. Now I’ll wait next days to see if the problem disappears

[fpracek (Fausto)]

Sorry for the delay, but my internet connection was out of order for many days.
The implemetion doesn’t resolve the problem…

[PeteW (Pete Weare)]

@lewie

After many discussions and hundreds of tests, it turns out that some actuators do not like to be queried regularly. If such a device is in the KNX bus, its unruly behaviour disturbs the whole bus and the openHAB KNX binding can be forced to reconnect or even give up after (usually 3) attempts. So comment out the parameter “address”, “fetch” and “pingInterval” in the Thing configuration if possible! It is best to omit this parameter from the beginning.

This fix worked for me. I’ve been struggling for a while now getting status back from my knx things, and recently this has got even worse as when using the Alexa skill lights would switch on/off but Alexa would say ‘device isnt responding’ even though it was! Thanks!

[fpracek (Fausto)]

In my case the solution did not work.
And I solved it by programming a restart of the service every time it goes offline.

I got the result by creating in my raspberry openhabian installation this sh file (install sshpass before with: apt-get install sshpass):

// restartknx.sh
sudo -u [YOUR_SYSTEM_USER] sshpass -p [YOUR_SYSTEM_PASSWORD] ssh openhab@localhost -p 8101 'bundle:restart org.openhab.binding.knx'

and running it by this cron rule:

rule "Restart KNX"

when
        
	Time cron "0/10 * * ? * *" 

then
  
	val allThings = sendHttpGetRequest("http://192.168.1.81:8080/rest/things")

	  if(allThings.indexOf('BRIDGE_OFFLINE"},"editable":false,"label":"KNK [ATT] 1.1.4')>0){
	
    logInfo("KNX", "KNX Autorestart")
    
	    var String esito = executeCommandLine("/etc/openhab2/scripts/restartknx.sh",5000)

	    if(esito!=''){
      
	        logInfo("KNX", "Autorestart completed (" + esito +")")
    
	    }
	
  }

end

In the sh file I check offline thing status searching “BRIDGE_OFFLINE”},“editable”:false,“label”:“KNK [ATT] 1.1.4” string into json sendHttpGetRequest result. This is a specific string of a my knx thing and you must search a your specific different string.

Remember to change [YOUR_SYSTEM_USER] and [YOUR_SYSTEM_PASSWORD] with your openhabian credentials of a my knx thing and you can search a your specific different string.

Hi all,

I’m on 2.4.0.1 and my KNX feedback seems to have bust again…it was working fine the other week - any ideas?

My sitemaps don’t update anymore when i press a physical button

[PeteW (Pete Weare)]

Update on this - I’m using Google Home. GH turns lights on/off ok but says ‘i’m having trouble accessing xx lights’ when turning lights on! When turning them off, everything is ok. Very strange behaviour.
