Multiple xiaomi gateways - but only one gateway is online at a time

[Kellermeister (Marcel)]

i have been using 3 xiaomi gateways successfully for a long time. since about 4 weeks there are always two gateways offline, only 1 gateway is working at the same time. 2 bridges are always offline.
Individually I can run all 3 gateways, but not together (if I set 2 gateways to disable in the paper ui).
what i did once again is an openhab update from version 2.5.1 to 2.5.4

does anyone have an idea what this could be?

Are you sure you updated to 2.5.4 or 2.5.5? Apparently the binding in 2.5.5 is broken according to this posting.

openHAB 2.5.x Patch Releases

Yes, this is another topic that should be addressed. For example, 2.5.4 release (https://github.com/openhab/openhab-distro/releases/tag/2.5.4) did not list any changes to the Xiaomi Mi binding, however, there were changes (a bug to be precise) that made the binding unusable for 2 and more gateways. That means the release notes can not be taken as the main source of truth.

i have updated to version 2.5.4. is this problem fixed with 2.5.5?

[Bruce_Osborne]

It looked to me that it broke in 2.5.5 according to the link earlier. I do not use that binding.

It’s fixed in 2.5.5. See:

[mihome] Fix NPE, add null annotations and name threads

And:

Second Xiaomi bridge offline, only 1 works at a time

I Have installed the 2.5.5. snapshot version, and deleted the official binding. For me this solved it for now, and easier than downgrade Openhab as described above.

thanks for your help … update from 2.5.4 to 2.5.5 has solved this problem. Now, all 3 gateways works fine.
