This is not related to milestone builds so this is off topic. With “latest” you are talking about snapshot builds. Search button and official documentation will get you started (and finished if read carefully) . If you encounter any problems then please open a new thread.

Will 2.4.0 M5 become 2.4.0 Stable or you will release another Milestone Build (M6?) that will become 2.4.0 stable ?

Maybe more “snap-shooters” like me should switch now to M5 to test it (if it will be the one coming up as 2.4.0 Stable)

edit: We wait for M6 to have MQTTv2 also! :slight_smile:

Planning to do a M6 in the next days. Probably also further M7/M8 before final release.
MQTTv2 won’t have actions in M6 yet.

For me it wouldn’t want to show up after updating the repos. Testing release is set. Anyone else having this issue?

121

I posted here a dedicated thread for M6: [OH 2.4.0 M6] Testing Results

I am sure that @Benjy will publish the linuxpkg soon

122

I actually thought I published it with https://ci.openhab.org/job/openhab-linuxpkg-testing/21/console, but it seems, this didn’t do the job. @Benjy to the rescue!

My eye fell on this … does this mean there is now a method to access target runtime from rules? Or perhaps just a step towards?

What you have missed to see is this one:

You can find the discussion on why this has been reverted here.

125

Thankyou - I did miss that - Github is a rabbit warren. I shall remain living in hope :slight_smile:

126

Whoops, I hadn’t added back the build steps after we got the packages signed with ci.openhab.org.

Added all steps back, re-triggered it successfully and the packages will be available in a couple of minutes when Bintray has had the chance to calculate it’s metadata.

Wouldn’t it be possible to resubmit the PR and just exclude the Joda Time replacement code (i.e. refocus the PR to just add the getScheduledFireTime method)?

128

added this to the FAQ that I made (I hope the info are correct there :slight_smile:)

Where should problems with the Milestone Build be reported? Even after several retries I get some Exceptions on startup.

[Edit]
Sorry, found it in the FAQ, I will open a new posting

Hi

Is the RSS feed still live?

I tried to add it today but the binding’s thing says there is a communication error.

131

Server change… try https://ci.openhab.org/job/openhab2-release/rssAll.

Thanks for that Scott :slight_smile:

Are there any other feeds, other than the rssAll one?

133

No way for easy upgrade milestones with scripts on windows platform?

134

I am not aware of ANY script for easy upgrade on windows platform.

135

There is one for the released builds… in powershell - works fine :slight_smile:
