Please do not edit the setenv file. It will be overwritten on upgrades!

As you can find out in the documentation, there is an extra file intended for these changes:
http://docs.openhab.org/installation/linux.html#privileges-for-common-peripherals

Regarding the Razberry and openHABian: There is a menu entry in openhabian-config: openHABian hassle-free openHAB Setup - #576 by ThomDietrich - you do not need to do anything else!

On any other Raspbian system you will have to do the following:

  • Execute adduser openhab dialout and adduser openhab tty
  • Remove the serial console and login shell from /boot/cmdline.txt and /etc/inittab as shown here and here
  • Enable the serial port by adding “enable_uart=1” to /boot/config.txt
  • Disable Bluetooth on the RPi3 by adding “dtoverlay=pi3-miniuart-bt” to /boot/config.txt
  • Add to file /etc/default/openhab2:
EXTRA_JAVA_OPTS="-Dgnu.io.rxtx.SerialPorts=/dev/ttyUSB0:/dev/ttyS0:/dev/ttyAMA0"

Afterwards you just need to add the appropriate serial port to your ZWave binding.

A discussion regarding the details can be found here.
