I just wanted to post this and see if anyone else is running into the same thing I am. I have my Echo/Alexa account hooked up to my OpenHAB account using the OpenHAB skill. Everything links and discovers just fine and has been working without flaw for months. However shortly before the OH 2.2 release it stopped sending commands to the devices it discovered.
Then a day later it started working again, but now I keep getting random delays between giving Alexa the command and the device responding. Sometimes it’s soo long that Alexa reports that the device is not responding.
Did something change on Myopenhab.org when the new release came out? Is anyone else noticing these delays? Or is it something I need to optimize on my end? I really think it’s the cloud extension but I’m just trying to verify with others on this forum.
I guess something is not working correctly in myopenhab.org today. As I also receive 504 for my dashboard at the moment and I’m not able to add new Alexa devices as well.
Something is definitely having issues on the OH cloud connector. My Alexa service continuously delays or fails to respond. I had issues with it again this morning. Are they working on updating it or something that might be causing these issues?
Is there a way we can find out what’s causing these delays? Do we know who’s in charge of this portion of OpenHAB? They may not be aware that there are issues and if possible we should make them aware so they can troubleshoot this issue if needed.
