There was a developer who fixed the authentication issues earlier this year that was part of release 2.5.13 somewhere on this forum. Ideally if we can find this person, we can get this fixed for the 2.5.x folks.
@michi , maybe you can help or know the last person that updated the binding?
Best, Jay
Hi @jlekhter , can you help us with a 2.5.13 version fix to resolve last command channel throwing errors now?
Best, Jay
Thanks a lot! Works again for 3.2.0 M3.
I thought oH 2.5.12 was the last version of 2.5 branch?
Thank you for your fix.
But with the new binding, the announcements do not work anymore…
can anybody confirm this?
Here’s the 2.5.13 but does have the issue reported on this thread.
Best, Jay
Can you show what exactly is not working?
Thank you. This fix works for me openhab 3.1.0 release
ok.
Echo_Arbeitszimmer_Announcement.sendCommand(‘Hallo’) …is working
Echo_Arbeitszimmer_Announcement.sendCommand(’{“sound”: false, “title”: “SmartHome”, “body”: “Dies ist ein Test”}’) …is working (no sound but text)
Echo_Arbeitszimmer_Announcement.sendCommand(’{“sound”: true, “title”: “SmartHome”, “body”: “Dies ist ein Test”}’) …not working (nothing happen)
With the old binding, the 3rd syntax was showing the text on the display, with a “gong” but no spoken words…it would be great, when this could work again…
this problem was still there in one of the previous versions…and was fixed from you.
it occurs when the “speak”-tag does not exist…

Hello people, I’m trying to copy the jar in “/usr/share/openhab/addons” using WinSCP but I got this message
“Permission denied.
Error code: 3
Error message from server: Permission denied”. How can I copy the jar into the addon folder?
Thanks!
Which user? Sounds like a permission issue?
The user is “openhabian”… yes this is a permission issue, I’m a beginner on Linux. Thanks
Later edit : I used putty and I downloaded the file using "sudo wget link " 
(1st time I tried to copy the file from Windows to Openhab using WinSCP)
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing that. I don‘t use openhabian, so I can‘t really help there.
i had your same problem i downloaded it with putty but how do i install it? Thank you!
I read that you had the same problem, I just uninstalled amazonechocontrol binding from Interface Bindings, downloaded the file to “/usr/share/openhab/addons” and used “sudo reboot” and now it’s working!

PS : thanks @J-N-K ! You rock!
I didnt really fix anything, I just did a build with @J-N-K’s fix on the 2.5 version.
Looks like we might have an upgrade in our future…
you are a rock star Jerry
Thanks to Jan as well for providing fix
A fix for 2.5 will help a lot of people around the world! Thanks for every effort!
