Sorry!

I do not use the Sonos binding so I skipped this report.

2.4.0RC1 is out.
Does that still count as a milestone ? At least I noticed it appeared in the ‘testing’ repo.

Yes, this qualifies as a milestone - the “RC” label simply shows that it is planned to be the last one before the release.

Ahm, I just updated from M8 to RC1 and hell broke loose. Feature install failed completely and some errors on Smarthome binding some error about ‘sse’ . We might want to check if this a problem for major release. Will post all the errors once I’m back home. Sonos upnp issue seems to be fixed but now new errors popping up there as well.

@marcelser Please report in this thread. I doubt that there’s an issue between M8 and RC1, it sounds more like some temporary problem, which might be resolved after a simple restart.

you’re right. after 2 restarts most problems are resolved. The remaining stuff I will check and if necessary post in testing thread.

Updated to RC1. Still no problems. Would consider this as closed.

Is the Docker Image already out? I cant find a 2.4 RC1 Tag.

It’s waiting for approval by @cniweb in

Does stable releases will be released in the testing repo (like after RC1)?
I have switched to the testing repo because I had a few bugs in the beginning, now most of them are solved and I don’t want to mess with non-stable releases. How should I switch back?
Switch back to the stable release and do an upgrade when 2.4 is out?

Thanks!

Using ThingAction to get the online/offline status of a Thing seems to be broken in RC1. Or perhaps the syntax has changed?

The following line:

var status = ThingAction.getThingStatusInfo("zwave:serial_zstick:zstick").getStatus()

Was working fine until I upgraded to RC1 this morning. Now I get:

2018-12-16 14:01:40.003 [ERROR] [ntime.internal.engine.ExecuteRuleJob] - Error during the execution of rule 'Hourly check of critical items': The name 'ThingAction' cannot be resolved to an item or type; line 52, column 16, length 11

Would be grateful for any help anyone can give with this.

thanks

Afaik, you do not need to put ThingAction. in front - it should work without it. Could you try?

that works perfectly - thank you.

I upgraded to 2.4 M5 a while ago. Just now I try to upgrade to RC1, but I got this error:

Does anyone know what could have caused this? It was just fine couple weeks ago.

Hi,

I don’t know the root cause, but I was getting an error just now on my Pi when I tried to upgrade.

E: The repository 'https://dl.bintray.com/openhab/apt-repo2 testing Release' is no longer signed.

If it helps anyone, I cleared the error by clearing the apt cache and regenerating it.

sudo apt-get clean
sudo mv /var/lib/apt/lists /tmp
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/apt/lists/partial
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update

I now get a warning, but at least I could update openHAB.

W: The repository ‘https://dl.bintray.com/openhab/apt-repo2 testing Release’ is not signed.

This might be related to the fact that I had to remove some older versions (such as 2.3.0.RC1) from the apt repo to make some space for the 2.4 release. @Benjy I assume that might have broken the signature of the repo - how to bring it back? Will it automatically be properly signed again upon the next milestone publication?

The warning shouldn’t appear anymore, the repos have been re-signed.

Hi,
