Hi,

i have some issues with homegear. I prepared a new SD with the openhabian 1.4 image and install homegear. All works perfect. Yesterday i want update the system. i used the openhabian-config tool. After that, my homegear is broken.

if i want start the service, i get the following error:

Jan 02 16:16:24 openHABianPi systemd[1]: homegear.service: Unit entered failed state.
Jan 02 16:16:24 openHABianPi systemd[1]: homegear.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

Before i do the update, it works fine. Now i have deleted homegear and re installed it, but i get this error everytime. I hope you can help me :confused:

Well, apparently there’s a problem with the most current version of one of the homegear packages. openhabian doesn’t include them but just retrieves these from the repository (see /etc/apt/sources.list.d/homegear.list).
So for the time being, you would need to ask the homegear maintainers.

@ThomDietrich…awesome job! id like to suggest an addition…menu item to set a static ip to the pi…why? why not! you have everything else…

@ThomDietrich, thanks for the SD image. I was able to install everything from SD, it was ok, then, I tried to copy the image with Etcher to a SSD drive and was able following the steps I descibed there OpenHAB2 on separate USB (Raspberry Pi) to boot from my SSD drive and install openHab2 on the disk. But was not able to reproduce it after shut down a second time. So the question is (dummy…) do I have to boot with the SD card, but what datas should be on the SD? should the bootcode.bin file still be there? I’ve tried but have only the colorized start screen…
Thanks, Chris

Would it be possible to implement reboot system and restart OH2 buttons into openhabianpi:8080/start/index page?
Would love to have those features! Could be a optional installation package through the openhabian-config for example.

I like this Idea! A restart button in sitemap would be great!

Holger

No. You shouldn’t need to be restarting OH. Once setup correctly, it is supposed to run 24x7.
Anyone who still wants to restart OH or boot his box can do so from the shell level (or simply by powercycling).
If your OH does not work, you are asked to help finding out why it does not (open a GitHub issue, gather and upload logs).
I definitely wouldn’t want to encourage more people to unnecessarily restart OH or even boot their boxes by adding this in openHABian.

Yes, I agree, if the system is stable and has no bugs.
But there are issues like posted here, which currently require restarts:

It can be done on the console, yes, but it would be easier to do this with a button. Only my 2ct.

@ThomDietrich, possible or not to install from external mSATA USB? please look there my config and my error logs, thanks [openHabian] Cloning myself... FAILED

Hi

Yesterday I did a new installation and I’m wondering if I can change these things:

  1. I have changed the default host name “openhabianpi” but the frontail log viewer doesn’t update the link:

  2. Is there any chance to remove the “OPENHABIAN HELP” from this view?

Thanks
Michael

About the Future of openHABian - Contributors Wanted!

Over the first halve of 2018 I will not be able to invest any significant time into the openHABian project. We are therefore looking for interested developers to drive the project further! Development can go in many directions and part of this release was also to clean up and structure the code base for your easy start. You should bring basic bash and git experience, the openHABian project is an easy one to get stated with! If you are interested, drop a comment, contact one of the openHAB maintainers privately or directly push a PR our way :wink:

Update News (v1.4.1)

Everyone,
we are proud to release the v1.4.1 release of the Raspberry Pi openHABian image.

The release is a maintenance release to support the newly released Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+. You can use it for all RPi models. As always: There is no need to reinstall an existing setup that was e.g. set up with the v1.4 or v1.3 image. For the Pine A64 the v1.4 image is still up-to-date.

Check out the first posting in this thread to find more details and download links.

Happy Automating!
