Just this morning I noticed my OpenHAB Android App Beta (2.5.9-beta-Jan 24, 2019) will no longer properly send a setpoint. (I can no longer control my Thermostat via the app). The BasicUI on a browser works just fine. When I click on the dropdown window, adjust the setpoint via the “roller” and hit “SET” nothing happens. When I look in the log output of karaf I see the warning:
07:15:39.310 [WARN ] [.rest.core.internal.item.ItemResource] - Received HTTP POST request at 'items/ThermostatSetpointHeat' with an invalid status value '68.0° F'.
If I make the same request with BasicUI (the exact same sitemap) I get the expected response:
Did something change in a recent update? Are there any workarounds to this? I’m not sure the last time I tried to use the app for my temp setting in the house, but it had to be in the last 2 or 3 days. My wife uses it so I would have heard about it!
Yes, but I think I just fixed it. Here are my item definitions:
Number ThermostatSetpointHeat "HEAT Set [%.1f °F]" <temperature_hot> (ZWave,Thermostat) {mios="unit:house,device:15/service/TemperatureSetpoint1_Heat/CurrentSetpoint"}
Number ThermostatSetpointCool "COOL Set [%.1f °F]" <temperature_cold> (ZWave,Thermostat) {mios="unit:house,device:15/service/TemperatureSetpoint1_Cool/CurrentSetpoint"}
Here was my original sitemap (setpoint) definition:
Setpoint item=ThermostatSetpointCool label="COOL Set [%.1f °F]" minValue=65 maxValue=85 step=1.0
Setpoint item=ThermostatSetpointHeat label="HEAT Set [%.1f °F]" minValue=50 maxValue=80 step=1.0
I had an idea that maybe the app stopped handling the setpoint definition correctly, so I changed it to remove the label from the setpoint on the sitemap and it now works:
Not sure why this would have changed… I’ve been using this sitemap like this for over a year, but glad to have it back in operation.
This may still be something that needs to be looked into though. I wouldn’t think the label formatting on the setpoint item would get sent as part of the rest/http request.
