OpenHab rule not reliably triggered by hue tap

Hi all,

i have the problem that my openhab rules, wich invole a philips hue tap switch, dont get reliable triggered (sometimes i have to push 5-6 times to get a result).

i can see in the events.log that the hue tap gets updated, but the rule dont get triggered.

i use openhab 2.5.5 (with 2.5.4 and 2.5.0 i had the same problem) on docker with influxdb as persistence (both on synology host).

my rule looks like this:

        rule "Licht Wohnzimmer"
        when
            Channel "hue:0830:90f326aa:tap_switch_event" triggered 34.0
            
        then
            WZ_Licht_Rule.sendCommand(if (WZ_Licht_Rule.state == OFF) ON else OFF)
        end

the rule that then get triggerd is this:

        rule "Licht Wohnzimmer Starten"
        when
            Item WZ_Licht_Rule changed to ON
        then
            WZ_Decke_RGB_Color.sendCommand("27,57,100")
            WZ_Vitrine_Steckdose.sendCommand(ON)
            WZ_Licht_Rule.sendCommand(ON)
            WZ_Ambient_RGB_Color.sendCommand("0,100,50")
            HueGo1Effect.sendCommand(ON)
        end

        rule "Licht Wohnzimmer Beenden"
        when
            Item WZ_Licht_Rule changed to OFF
        then
            WZ_Decke_RGB_Color.sendCommand(OFF)
            WZ_Ambient_RGB_Color.sendCommand(OFF)
            WZ_Vitrine_Steckdose.sendCommand(OFF)
            WZ_Licht_Rule.sendCommand(OFF)
            WZ_Mood_Licht_Rule.sendCommand(OFF)
            WZ_TV_Lightbar_Left_Color.sendCommand(OFF)
            WZ_TV_Lightbar_Right_Color.sendCommand(OFF)
            HueGo1.sendCommand(OFF)
        end

with BasicUI or android app, i dont have the problem. only with the hue tap.

has anyone an idea for this?

thanks

We can’t see. Share please.
Your first rule looks like it will always issue a command when triggered, so we’d see that in your events.log as well.

Test rule here might interest you

Very strange, today the rules are back to normal and get triggered every time i hit the hue tap :confused:

in the events.log i get entries like this, but the rule does not get triggered:

2020-05-13 16:58:47.465 [vent.ItemStateChangedEvent] - hue_0830_90f326aa_last_updated changed from 2020-05-13T16:58:43.000+0000 to 2020-05-13T16:58:46.000+0000

maybe the synology (DS718+) isn’t the best docker host?

That’s an Item change event log. Item.

Your rule is triggered by a Channel event. Channel

These things have nothing much to do with each other.

Damn…ok, it isn’t in the logs…

any idea why it is now back to normal?

I don’t know. What “it” is not in the logs? What “it” is back to normal, and what does normal mean?
