1

Hello there. I’m a new user of this forum and of openHAB.

I’ve a QNAP NAS TS-121 who’ve ARM architecture, and I’ve used openhab 1.7 correctly, but I’ve some problems with yamahareceiver bindings for select net radio, so I’ve tried to use on my pc Eclipse for modify yamahareceiver binding, but I’m not good in this thing.

So I’ve decided to try openHAB 2. I’ve installed on my NAS, but now I can see that all conf folders (items, sitemap, ecc) are all empty. Now I’ve to past the files who’re stored on openHAB 1.8 directory, or I’ve to do something else???

Please help me!

Thx sihui. I’ve read your info, but I don’t understand how to choose the default install.
I’ve edited the configuration file, and then i’ve run start.sh, but nothing happen, openhab 2 start but no sitemap, no item, nothing, It should auto-fill ??? I’ve installed on Qnap the qpkg of Openhab 2.0.0.a1 (taken on qnap forum) and JRE_ARM 8.65.0. I have to install anything else? Or you tell me where to copy all configuration files manually ??? Thx

I believe you would want to set the package to demo. That should install example configs and sitemaps.

Ah, maybe I’ve make a mistake.

After, when I’ll back home I’ll try to select demo package.
As I understand, i’ve to edit the file ‘conf/services/addons.cfg’ selecting demo and after I’ve to launch start.sh.
It’s the correct procedure???

So, since I run openhab on a Qnap NAS Arm, the only programs I need are precisely the openhab folder and the JRE version 8 ??? Anything else?

Hi,

These informations are for people doing a fresh install (i.e. : not coming from OpenHab 1.x), but perhaps they could help you : https://www.gitbook.com/book/bipphilippe/openhab2-compendium/
