I started playing with OH several months ago. I had finally figured out how to get my ESP8266’s talking to OH via some Arduino code. I had 1 light switch and 3 thermometers working. A week ago something happened to my network that wiped out all my ESP’s and the router. I Factory reset the router to get it working again. I have been reading about the Tasmota software for the ESPs. I got the program for those and got them all set up and running within minutes. I went to check my RPi 2B+ and it stopped working too. So I downloaded the latest openHAB and have been reading about the new changes to the MQTT. I have watched a bunch of videos and have been reading a lot but some of the stuff is outdated and doesn’t work.
I have just tried to install the latest download of OH and have received an error while the program was installing :
Updating repositories and upgrading installed packages…FAILED
Does anyone have easy directions on how to create a switch and thermometer in OH using the Tasmota modules and MQTT? Thank you
