Openhab Conbee II

RKsOH · August 1, 2023, 7:14am

Very new to OpenHab.
I’ve used Fhem for years and now i’m using Home Assistant in my Home since years.

Yester i started fresh with RpiZero2 and OpenHab, no problems.
I inserted a Conbee II USB Stick, installed as descriped on the phoscon site.
I’d no problems to find and add some Zigbee devices.

Today i want to start with MQTT Broker, to add some ESP Devices, i installed the MQTT Broker, restarted the RPi.
But the Phoscon Gateway is now unknown and the Bindings from yesterday are on Error.

Where to start with error searching ?

Which OH version do you use ? What does the openhab.log content show ?

What is the output of

sudo netstat -tulpe | grep -i deconz

This should show all ports that the deconz port is listening on.

RKsOH · August 1, 2023, 8:06am

Now i’ve tried to start Deconz in Debug mode.

openhabian@openhabian:~ $ /usr/bin/deCONZ --dbg-info=2 --dbg-error=2
qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, xcb.

Aborted

RKsOH · August 1, 2023, 8:06am

no output

Wolfgang_S · August 1, 2023, 8:12am

Then no deconz process seems to run. You may validate that by using ps -ef | grep -i deconz

Try

sudo systemctl restart deconz

Any error message ? Does the netstat call return results now ? If not what is shown by

sudo journalctl | grep -i deconz

Mmmh, now the Phoscon GW is online!
Why?

Wolfgang_S · August 1, 2023, 8:25am

You used the service that starts with GUI which is not available on a headless system. The display couldn’t be opened.
Did you shut down your server before deconz was not running/working ?
What is the output of

sudo systemctl status deconz.service

does it show enabled in:

 Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/deconz.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

If not the service will not be started automatically after a reboot/restart of the Pi.
That start was done manually with the command I asked you to execute.

Wolfgang_S · August 1, 2023, 8:26am

the http and https services are required to access the Phoscon API which is used by the binding.
As those were not running OH was not able to access the Conbee stick.

RKsOH · August 1, 2023, 8:42am

Ok, thx for your patiens

I just booted the RPi, Deconz does not work.
i entered
sudo systemctl restart deconz
now it works

So i’ve to find a way to autostart it?
I’m not very familar with Linux

RKsOH · August 1, 2023, 9:17am

i tried
sudo systemctl enable deconz-gui
but does not autostart

Wolfgang_S · August 1, 2023, 10:17am

because that is again the wrong service.
That is the service that complains about missing QT libraries because you have a headless install …?
You need to enable the other service that you manually started before

sudo systemctl enable deconz

After it is enabled

sudo systemctl status deconz.service

will show that it is enabled.

RKsOH · August 1, 2023, 10:29am

Wolfgang_S:

Yeah, Thx, now it works
and i’ve learned a lot
