Not sure how the openhab2 configuration is done but you would think that it would be possible to remove the modbus 1.9.0 somehow… Unfortunately I’m still not familiar with the new openhab. Let’s wait for for other users to pitch in.
Perhaps you should rename the title as “Replacing openhab2 Paper UI installed binding with custom jar”?
When running a manual installation, it is possible to pre-download add-ons or legacy add-ons if you want to install any bindings at a later date without connecting to the internet. Simply download the kar files (the latest builds can be found here) and move them to the /opt/openhab2/addons folder.
While the openHAB distribution already contains many add-ons of openHAB 1, there are still quite some of them missing - please help testing them - if they are confirmed to be working, they can be included in the distribution. Test a not included add-on is very straight forward:
Start your runtime
Install the 1.x compatibility layer by running feature:install openhab-runtime-compat1x in the openHAB console
As with openHAB 1.x, simply take the jar file of your add-on and place it in the ${openhab.home}/addons folder.
Copy your personal openhab.cfg file to ${openhab.home}/conf/services/openhab.cfg.
Not sure if both are correct but at least I’m confused now
Hey!
Thanks for your work! In my setup I also turned of in PaperUI the “access remote repository” to “motivate” openhab2 to have a look into the add-ons folder without success…
