Congrats on reaching the first milestone!

EDIT: Iā€™ve been having a slow startup problem, but it might be related to my config. A clean install doesnā€™t have this issue.

Great work everyone!

At the moment the documentation around Blockly OH3 ā†’ OH4 conversion could be interpreted in different ways. Can someone confirm:

  • Do we need to install the automation plugin for Nashorn before converting (by opening an OH3 Blockly script and re-saving it)?

If you want to convert your Blocklies to GraalJS, you donā€™t need to install the Nashorn automation plugin.

You only need to install the JavaScript automation plugin (JavaScript Scripting - Automation | openHAB, not the Nashorn version), open your Blocklies and click save.

@stefan.hoehn We probably need to improve the docs.

Depends how you did install Java 11 in the first place.
What OS ?
How was Java installed ?

Fist and most important, thanks for the great work and the effort!

I could not find any information regarding Jython, is it still working with the 4.0 Milestone release?

Thanks for your help!

Please help!! Updated without reading from Openhab3 to openhab 4 via openhabian-config/ Now openhab doesnā€™t start, what can I do? How to update Java 11 to Java 17?

You can install openJDK Java 17.
Either via openHABian-config tool or direct package installation.

sudo apt-get install openjdk-jre-17-headless

If I remember correct

12

Donā€˜t push this way. You wonā€˜t get quicker answers if repeating your question within short time.
In the meantime you could have googled how to get Java 17 on your Piā€¦

If you have further questions on this one, please open a new topic as it is not Milestone related.

a) make sure to use the stable repo instead of testing. this would enable you to switch back to OH 3.4.2. In case the configuration files are already touched you may have a problem. Especially in case there is no backup.

or

b) Install Java17. Looks like Zulu 17 is not available via repo for armhf. I think it is possible to download it from Java 8, 11, 17, 21, 22 Download for Linux, Windows and macOS manually in a tar file and install it. I did not check.

14

Do I need to uninstall java 11 on my Raspbian system before installing java 17?

15

Not necessarily, you can switch different versions with ā€žalternativesā€œ

Iā€™m not an expert, but I wrote this up to document what I did to get Java17 running with Buster. I consider this a temporary solution. Might help someone, but no promises. Iā€™m sure there are better ways to do this, but this worked for me. The zulu site I used is [here] (near the bottom). (Java Download | Java 7, Java 8, Java 11, Java 13, Java 15, Java 17, Java 19 - Linux, Windows & macOS).

Great work everyone!
I just upgraded to 4.0.0.M1 and everything seems to be working fine so far, but I get these errors related to the HarmonyHub/HomeConnect bindings at startup:

I have already deleted/added all related things, but the error remains.

I think this might be a pending fix for that:

I would love to test but not having inline JS is a show stopper for me. Will this be included in time for M2 ?

I made it now more comprehensive. I hope this makes it much clearer. It is already merged and soon be online for everyone:

Btw, this also applies to all JS Scripting Rules that have the MIME-Type application/javascript from openHAB3 (see the release notes)

Thereā€™s already a PR for supporting it. It doesnā€™t look like a lot of code :slight_smile: but I donā€™t know how well it works because it is still ā€œDraftā€:
