I have installed the Ubuntu image with openHAB using “pine64_openhab_20160915_8GB” . The install works and I can use web access to get the main menu, but I wanted to use Designer on my MacBook Pro to make changes to the configuration.
I set up a Samba server so that I could read the files on the Mac. After some tweaking with the samba/conf file to set it up to the proper locations (The image sets them up in the “opt” directory and not in the “etc” directory like so many other examples) I can open the files on the Mac with a text editor.
But when I try to open them in Designer it says that" the chosen directory is not a valid openHAB configuration directory".
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong and point me in the right direction?
The opt/openhab/ directory has the following sub-directories:
addons
conf
LICENSE.TXT
runtime
start_debug.sh
start.sh
userdata
The Samba server was set up with:
[openHAB-conf]
comment=openHAB site configuration
path=/opt/openhab/conf
browseable=Yes
writeable=Yes
only guest=no
public=no
create mask=0777
directory mask=0777
[openHAB-userdata]
comment=openHAB userdata
path=/opt/openhab/userdata
browseable=Yes
writeable=Yes
only guest=no
public=no
create mask=0777
directory mask=0777
The directories that I found have the following subdirectories
opt/openhab/conf
html/
icons/
items/
persistence/
rules/
scripts/
services/
sitemaps/
things/
transform/
opt/openhab/userdata
cache/
deploy/
etc/
generated-bundles/
hueemulation /
kar/
lock
logs/
mapdb/
persistence/
port
tmp/
openHAB Designer does not appear to like that structure.
Thanks for any assistance you can provide.
