I have almost 2 years running OH. After a crash of my RPI I thought it was time to upgrade to OH2.
I’ve tried everything but I get the KNX connection not working. Sonos and Yamaha is not a problem except for KNX
My openhab log

I use a Gira Router.
In OH1.8.3 I used the same configuration, and it was no problem and this worked perfectly.
Does anyone have an idea ?
I tried on a NAS, Windows, and an RPI but same results everywhere.
MY KNX binding is working. When I send a value to the bus, this fine. However openhab not receive updates from the knx bus.
I suspect that something is wrong with my toplogy.
My configuration is as follows:
Can anyone think of an explanation of why I have no problem with the same configuration in OH1 and OH2 4 times the same value to the bus is sent?
Also, the updates are not updated from the bus OH.
(to enter into the Karaf console: "ssh openhab@localhost -p 8101" (password: habopen))
Maybe some stale config parameters are stored and are causing the problems…
You should make sure that you have ignorelocalevents = true to avoid telegram echo.
Even with this parameter set, the older version of the KNX Binding had some problems (sending 2 times the telegram to the KNX Bus). See here: https://github.com/openhab/openhab2-addons/issues/503 (by the way… I need to do some more testing @lewie)
Regarding the status updates: Are you using a dummy application in your ETS?
You should have the GAs mapped to that dummy app in order for the GIRA KNX/IP Router to allow them to pass the filter table (and finally reach openHAB 2)
I updated my openhab to the latest snapshot in Openhabian.
I aslo updated my router to firmware version 3. with help of your post HowTo: GIRA KNX/IP Router.
This is strange… Are you using Tunnel or Router type of connection from OH1?
This means that the telegrams are crossing the GIRA Router and they reach to the openHAB (1) Host. So you don’t need to worry about the filter table (or the dummy app).
I can’t think what could be wrong when you use OH2 with the status updates…
Try enabling TRACE for the KNX binding and post the output… maybe we see there something regarding telegrams reaching OH2 but being dropped (for some strange reason…)
No, I haven’t used the NUC yet. I see that some models accept a Hard Disk (which is good versus SD Cards)
Note: If you are planning to keep opanHAB in a simple / medium complexity level, you will be fine with the rPi3
If you want more advanced stuff to be deployed (like persistence, graphing, heavy logging, etc) you may want to consider a cheap laptop with a hard disk. The SD Cards can become corrupted when used heavily.
I have a Laptop running OH2 in parallel to the rPi3 and I am planning to move everything there (mostly for reliability, not necessarily performance)
