Ring binding 5.0 not initializing due to HTTP protocol violation

Mpower · July 27, 2025, 10:07am

I am installing a fresh openhab 5 installation and want to add my lately bough ring system. When initialising the bridge I am seeing in error

Am I maybe missing a setting?

Paul_Smedley · July 29, 2025, 8:59am

I just setup the binding on a fresh install and it worked fine. You are entering the ring account username and password?

Mpower · July 29, 2025, 2:25pm

Yes, correct. It was also a fresh OH5 image

Mpower · July 29, 2025, 4:36pm

@Paul_Smedley which version of OH and the binding are you running?

Paul_Smedley · July 29, 2025, 8:25pm

OH5.0 and the ring binding from that release

Mpower · July 30, 2025, 5:36am

could you do me a favor and how your debug look for ring when it’s trying to login ?

Paul_Smedley · July 30, 2025, 5:58am

Yeah will try do this tonight, I did a lot of work on the ring binding to get it into OH5 so I at least have some understanding of the code

The following is from the setup of the Binding Bridge on OH5.0, with a Ring account that has 2FA enabled:

Mpower · July 31, 2025, 5:54pm

very odd, so it seems like in the first place it has to do something with the 2FA account setting. I had it set to an auth app and now changed it to SMS -

When I try to login without a 2FA set it looks like this

19:52:23.025 [DEBUG] [.ring.internal.handler.AccountHandler] - Initializing Ring Account handler

19:52:23.253 [WARN ] [nhab.binding.ring.internal.RestClient] - RestApi error in postRequest!

I am not seeing AuthenticationException when initializing Ring Account handler Two factor authentication enabled, enter code as in your logs (I am also not getting any sms)

When I enter the 2FA that I can find at the ring page, under register a new device it loos like this

Bad the Thing stays in Error:Com

Paul_Smedley · July 31, 2025, 9:05pm

I guess because the current code is only designed to send back an SMS code - perhaps the handling by the Ring code is different for an ‘Authenticator’ app.

@J-N-K and I talked about the potential to support a different way of logging in, via an applet - ie install the binding then go to http://openhab:8080/roborock/ and login - but have not progressed yet.

Seems right now there is a limitation that login only works with either NO 2FA (If Ring even allows this now), or with SMS 2FA.

When I get some time, I’ll switch my account to use an auth app and try fix this.

Mpower · August 1, 2025, 12:57pm

Thanks for your support. Today got it working by

Creating a new account
Not setting up 2FA in the account by pressing cancel when I was asked to
Entered my credentials in the ring openhab thing, which mentioned 2FA Code is needed upon saving
I received a 2FA code via Mail and entered this one → worked

I will play with the previous a bit to see what could be the cause and summarize afterwards before setting it to solved

My original account worked after changing the password, I got the 2FA via sms upon initializing the thing

Mpower · August 1, 2025, 3:24pm

@Paul_Smedley I have changed the password on the original account and now it also worked on this one - tbh I am not sure if it that was the root cause
My previous password was “fTuh58&r#35” (no worries, this is a random generated pw and not in use for any account), maybe there is an issue with some special chars?

Paul_Smedley · August 1, 2025, 8:29pm

It’s possible they parameters should be urlencoded.

There is a helped function ParamBuilder:

          @NonNullByDefault
          public class ParamBuilder {
          
             /**
              * When true, URL encode parameter names and values properly.
              */
             private boolean urlEncode;
             private static final String URL_ENCODING = "UTF-8";
             /**
              * The map used to store the parameters.
              */
             private final Map<String, String> parameters;
          
             /**
              * Create a new ParamBuilder. Specify if it should URL encode it.

But when the password is sent to ring, the parameter to encode or not, is set to false:

github.com/psmedley/openhab-addons

bundles/org.openhab.binding.ring/src/main/java/org/openhab/binding/ring/internal/RestClient.java

main


      
          ParamBuilder pb = new ParamBuilder(true);

I’ll try test this later today.

Paul_Smedley · August 1, 2025, 10:15pm

Not tested, but https://smedley.id.au/tmp/org.openhab.binding.ring-5.1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar might help

Paul_Smedley · August 3, 2025, 5:32am

OK I tested the above and it works - I used a complex password with lots of special characters, and also tested with an authenticator app. I’ll raise a PR to fix this.

I believe I am experiencing a related issue. I have had it working with 2FA in the past, though I do not recall if it was working right before I upgraded to 5.0 (and now 5.0.1).

Here is my set up, followed by a DEBUG log of an attempt to bring the account thing online.

Have you removed the older 4.x binding that was manually installed, and installed the 5.0 binding via openhab?

Your error is a different root cause as you have saved token already, MPower did not. I would maybe remove /var/lib/openhab/ring/ring*.refreshToken - perhaps the token is stale/expired?

BigGeorgeTx · August 22, 2025, 12:55pm

Yes, I removed the manually installed binding when I upgraded to OH 5.0 (actually, I think the upgrade tool purged everything in the add-ons folder) and and installed the native 5.0 binding (which I recognize took a lot of work to make happen - thanks for that).

I will give this a try and report back. Thanks for the help!

Update: that worked. The account thing is now on line!

Paul_Smedley · August 22, 2025, 9:40pm

Perhaps something changed in the structure of the refreshToken file - I don’t recall anything, but glad it helped!
