Unbound (virtual) switch item not working

[KNX_Philipp (Philipp Geisseler)]

Hi,

I migrated from OH2.5 successfully to OH3 (3.0.2).

Now I have a strange behavior with unbound (virtual) items. In OH2.5 I have never seen such behavior.

1. I created a new switch item over the main ui
2. The item is not bound to a binding/channel
3. If I switch the item ON then I see in the log messages which confirms the switch to ON
4. If I switch the item off then nothing is logged. In the item overview in main ui the status is still ON

I can not figure out why this happens.

I hope the community can help me.

This sounds like the UI problem

Simple UI Switch not working

I have a setup with heating regulators. Eurotronic Zwave Spirit. On OH2x I have defined a virtual switch (Switch HVAC_OnOff “AZ_Heat_OnOff”) defined in an .item File. With that Switch I activate or deactivate alle heating items in all rooms. No I’m going to port my setup to OH 3. I did this on a second system and will setup all from a fresh state. So I just played a little bit. I created a simple switch item on the UI. When I saved it, i saw the UI Item in the browser an can toogle it. B…

a workaround

Switch OFF Command stuck

Thank you @rossko57 !
This was the right hint for me. I changed “Settings->API Security->Show Advanced->Implicit user role for unauthenticated requests ON” and SAVE.
Then it works for me. For information I am using Chrome on a desktop PC.
