That’s true I also noticed this behavior.
Workde fine until 1-2 days ago.
Now binding is almost impossible as pre shared key and other stuff changes with each new “discovery”
At the moment (as a beginner) I am almost lost and think to switch to the hue bridge - as it supports the tradfri and other brands as well.
ah not so fixed then… only rebooted openHAB not gateway… not a happy bunny now… perhaps hue bridge it is then… did I hear something about the ikea remotes not working with hue though??
I solved part of the problem: my gateway is online now, thanks to the modification of the things file with the identity property, but none of my lightbulb is no longer responding.
when i use the ikea application by changing the intensity i see the change in openhab but openhab does not have control over it, when i turn it off through OH nothing happens
Which version are you running? I’m running 2.5 Snapshot (S1602 think) and I don’t have these problems. There have been some fixes, maybe some of them fix your problems, too. I still recommend to define things in PaperUI, much less pain than with the config files.
Thanks, I am on binding-tradfri - 2.4.0 (latest stable, with 2.4 openhab)
I do have all things defined from paperUi, only items are configured from config files.
To be honest, I am not 100% sure this is my exact problem, as I had to do some “life” things since, but I do recall that if I update keys again in paperui, it would start working for a while, but unpredictably.
(sometimes it would start working on its own, but again unpredictably).
As mentioned, I hope new stable release will have this fixed as well, not sure why I am reluctant to go to other channels then stable (well I think it is because a lot of recent updates broke something, I remember mqtt and some other things… )
EDIT
Same with snapshot.
From what I can see, the things get a default value for preSharedKey which is equal to code. Seems strange for me. identity stays empty.
Has anyone already received the Tradfri update to version 1.8.26?
Since then it has stopped working for me.
In the debug log I see the following messages: 08:42:15.588 [DEBUG] [g.tradfri.internal.TradfriCoapHandler] - CoAP error 4.04 08:42:17.210 [DEBUG] [g.tradfri.internal.TradfriCoapHandler] - CoAP response options: {} payload: Not Found
