OpenHAB 2.5 and Google TTS on Raspberry Pi

[frieso (Frieso A)]

did somebody solved this issue? I’m using Openhab 2.5 M3 with googletts and am having the same issue as mentioned above.

[aduffeck (André Duffeck)]

I also have started having this issue lately and traced it down to be a conflict between the Google TTS and the Google Calendar Scheduler service (misc-gcal1), presumably in the google oauth library. As soon as I uninstall the calendar one the TTS one starts working fine.

[Erik_Bergstrom (Erik Bergström)]

Same here. I had Google TTS working but as soon as I install misc-gcal1 it stops working. Removing Gcal makes TTS start working again. It is also impossible for me to get Gcal installation to work properly. Maybe that is because i have TTS installed, what do I know? I made another thread about that:

https://community.openhab.org/t/google-calendar-scheduler-no-instructions-in-log-file/81934

[gstrike (Gregory Strike)]

After reading Erik’s message above, I removed the “openHAB Google Calendar 1.14.0.M4” addon and the Google TTS started working immediately.

I then reinstalled the Google Calendar addon, rebooted, and Google TTS stopped working again.

Since I use the TTS more than the Calendar addon, I will be running without the calendar addon for now.

Hi,

Did somebody found a solution to this conflit with TTS and GCAL ?

It’s still existing in the “stable release”

kr,

Frederic

I can confirm the issue with Gcal and GoogleTTS in OH 2.5 stable release.

Did any of you file an issue on Github? If not, there isn´t much of a chance this will get fixed.

Try this out:

Google TTS addon for OH2

I submitted a new version for the Google TTS add-on recently - If you like you can give it a try - *.jar file for testing is attached on GitHub: Refactored to use openHAB Core OAuth2 -> Removed dependencies on Google libraries For authentication I replaced the serviceAccountKey configuration parameter by clientId, clientSecret and the one-time required authcode .

[Anthony_Jacobs]

This worked for me. Thank you!

[ifred (Frederic)]

This works. Thanks a lot.

Hi,

Doesn’t work anymore. Is it just me, or Google change something ?
JAVA errors…

[Kim_Andersen]

No errors here. Working fine.

I have openhab 2.5.7 and errors:

I’m also having this issue. I’m running Openhab 2.5.7 on a Raspberry Pi 4B and followed the official instructions to set up Google Cloud TTS. The following error shows up in openhab.log whenever I change the Google Cloud TTS config in Paper UI:

Trying to use the service doesn’t work as well obviously.
