Hi
Having spent a couple of evening trying to get this to work I;m now stumped and hoping someone may be able to help.
I’m trying to setup OpenHab with a Colorpicker and for the life of me I cannot get a rule to fire for it when it is changed.
I have absolutely no problem with a rule for a simple Switch but the Colorpicker refuses to comply i.e. I see a message in the openhab.log when I toggle the Switch but none for the ColorPicker however I do see entries in the events.log so I know that the Colorpicker is posting events to the bus.
You can see from the log below that the CP1 rule is not fired as there is no log entry for it.
I’m using the lastest Docker image of OpenHab (pulled down last night) and have simplifed the items, sitemap and rules to a minimum - see below.
Thanks
Mark
