Tellstick Binding and latest 2.5 UNINITIALIZED - HANDLER_INITIALIZING_ERROR

Sweet thaks for this. It seems to work great!!!

All i did was uninstall the original binding. Then i replaced the org.openhab.binding.tellstick-2.5.2.jar with the one downloaded from here and renamed it to org.openhab.binding.tellstick-2.5.2.jar. Then i just installed the binding again and it worked!! :slight_smile:

Try putting the jar file in the openhab root directory (there should be a folder named addons) and restart. Then configure it either using a .thing file or in the paper UI (add your public and private keys etc)ā€¦

Iā€™m not really familiar with the path you provided (Y:\openhab2-sysā€¦)

Thanks Per

I did as you saidā€¦but did not work
There is a file called openhab2-addons ā€¦(?) ā€¦i copied the jar file there and rebootedā€¦no change.

It looks like the 2.5.2 was still there. Manged to remove it after a while. Now i, if i look in Paper-UI.config-things there is no tellstick binding (ok good?). If i go to config bindings i can see Astro (ok) NTP (ok) and Tellstick by Jarle ā€¦(?) ā€¦as if it was still installed or what?,. if i click ā€œadd bindingā€ and scroll down i can see Tellstick 2.5.2 as an installable item but nothing about 2.4.0

B.t.w: If i just put a jar file somewhere just like you proposeā€¦will it automaticllay be ā€œinstalledā€?

Played around with configurations and now things started working! ā€¦at least i can see my devices and the communication w tellstick live is working. Unfortunately, I have absolutely no clue as to what i did to make it work but (in addition to the above) i removed and added the ā€œbridgeā€ line in a things file, and removed and added ā€œtellstickā€ in the addons.cfg file, shutdown and started

Thanks for the help! Really appreciated. Do we now know how to make this a part of an official build?

Yes, you donā€™t have to do an install if you have placed the jar-file in the addons folder.

So did I but I also had to uninstall all Things and Items connected to the Tellstick Live GW. Then all Things appeared in the Paper UI Inbox and I could configure them again. Just a lot of work!

Anyone knows if Telldus Live works with openhab 3?

  • Its listed as avaliable binding but I get error when installing.
  • I got it to work with OH 2.5 (placing .jar file in addon) and tried the same solution with OH 3, but still get error.

HANDLER_INITIALIZING_ERROR
io/netty/handler/ssl/JdkSslContext

Anyone have working Telldus / Tellstick on OH 3?

Yes I finally got it to work in version 3 but I first had to fix this bug https://github.com/openhab/openhab-addons/issues/7024.
I have a fix in progress, that at least makes it work for me and it is currently in review.

Any chance of posting the compiled jar file?

I added a comment on the PR that includes a link to a compiled jar.

Sounds great.
Is it enough to replace the jar file and restart?
I still get the same handler error.

I replaced the jar file in: (tried both the new name, and renamed as the original)
C:\openhab300\userdata\tmp\mvn\org\openhab\addons\bundles\org.openhab.binding.tellstick

Also tried putting it in /addons

When I tested it I first uninstalled the original binding using the main UI.
I then placed the jar file in the openhab/addons directory and restarted OpenHAB.
I could then manually add the Telldus Live Gateway using the main UI.

Just to be clear I still get the ā€œjava.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Unable to load library ā€˜telldus-coreā€™ā€ error but I have always had that error.
The fix only fixes the ā€œjava.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: io/netty/handler/ssl/JdkSslContextā€ error.

Great, thanx :slight_smile: :ok_hand:
I seem to get two of all Telldus things, but got it to work. No visible errors for me.

A million thanks from me as well! I am just in the progress of slowly migrating to 3.0, learning on the way. I will stick to the few Telldus switches I have on my remote site since Telldus Live is an efficient way of getting in touch with them without having a local OH installation.

I made a new installation OH 3.2 with Telldus Live and it works great without any custom adjustments. But I randomly (ca twice a day) following error. Dont know if its something I should care about?
