Hi Markus,
today i wanted to upgrade my OH2.5 to OH3. Unfortunately i had to roll back due to missing addons. I know that some addons may be removed due to the removal of the compatibility layer. But it seems that some more are missing. Here is what i found so far:
EnOcean: it is listed online (Add-ons | openHAB) but during setup it was not available (using latest docker image)
Fritzbox TR064: maybe its an old one but i am not sure. A list of removed addons would be helpful
Hue: dont know if it is renamed to Philips Hue or if they are different addons
At least a more detailed list of removed/renamed addons would be great. So users can switch to another implementation before upgrading.
In general it was a bit strange that i had to run a setup wizard and install plugins which might already available because it did an upgrade and not a clean installation. Maybe you can add this to some upgrade guide.
I added that. But it’s all publicly available knowledge.
It’s not secret withheld by some developer. A rather simple google search found it.
Yes it often requires some efforts to find, and sometimes even a lot of but anyone including yourself could have done that.
So please to all users out there:
Please don’t reply here only to ask for more information. Open your own thread.
Gather and share your knowledge not your complaints.
Contribute yourselves. Thank you.
I noticed you split my post about using a custom port. Does this mean you won’t treat this as a general upgrade issue that impacts a wide audience?
Fine with me, but then I’m going to close the thread as I now installed from scratch anyway. Nevertheless I think that an upgrade function shouldn’t ignore such a configuration change.
Well I only have a peek at posts so can easily be mistaken when taking the decision to move a post.
A custom port in the first place IMHO is a custom problem. I don’t think many users change it.
HABPanelViewer: OH3 changed REST event topics (not mentioned as breaking change), thus HABPanelViewer Command Item is broken. For now use 0.9.27pre linked in first post of HABPanelViewer thread until an official release is available.
Hi Markus,
I noticed that in the breaking changes it’s missing the fact that this API will no longer be working. I know it’s not an official API, but many users rely on this API for their setups, so I think everyone should know it:
