Hello openHAB Community,

I’ve been running openhab2 with an Insteon setup for a while, and I’ve decided to add ZWave components. I added a ZWave.ME UZB USB controller under openHAB 2.3, and saw it came up. However, after a reboot the controller went offline, and I was unable to bring it up. I was however able to delete the controller and add it fresh, after which it came up. In an effort to fix this, I’ve installed the latest ZWave snapshot, but now I can’t bring the controller up at all. Does anyone have any suggestions? There are similar threads in the community, and I’ve reviewed them, but I still can’t resolve the issue.

The USB dongle is recognized by the OS

Have you set your serial to persistent? See this link https://community.openhab.org/t/raspberry-pi-make-serial-usb-ports-persistent-via-symlinks/35847?u=h102

Your log shows differently…

Autodiscovery of USB devices is a new ESH feature. You may have two controllers showing up, and you are looking at the one that is not configured.

@H102,

Thanks. The Z-Wave dongle is a new device, but I’ve been using the Insteon PLM for a while and haven’t had any such problems. In fact, I don’t have multiple ttyACM ports. However, I’ll take a look at making the ports persistent anyway. It may save me grief in the future.

Hi @5iver,

Thanks. I was wondering about the ZWave messages I saw in the logs and if I actually had something going on. I don’t have multiple controllers showing up in openHAB-- at least not that I can see in the PaperUI and Habmin. In fact, I’ve deleted the controller that I see several times and re-added it. So, from what you are saying, I suspect a phantom controller is in play. How do I purge all the ZWave devices from my openHAB system? Is it as simple as deleting from the PaperUI and HABmin, deleting the binding, and rebooting?

Regards,
Burzin

You’ve done a manual install of the zwave binding. I’d double check you only have one binding installed, as this can cause some irregularities. It’s easy to check… in Karaf, do a…

list -s |grep zwave

If you see more than one, remove it through Paper UI. You’ll likely need the serial transport installed then…

feature:install openhab-transport-serial

Or just use this, which will take care of uninstalling, upgrading the binding, and installing the serial transport. Select Master (not development)…

Hi @5iver,

I noticed this on GitHub

This script is interactive and will prompt for input. It requires to be executed from the addons directory on the openHAB server, using the same account that runs openHAB .

Is this account typically openhab?

Hello @5iver and @H102,

Thanks for all the help. Problem solved. Here’s a recap

  1. After installing the 2.4.0 Z-Wave binding via Scott’s script, configuring the controller and rebooting, the Z-Wave controller came up (and it automatically discovered my second Z-Wave device!) However, after another reboot the controller reported offline. I was able to fix this by changing the USB port and saving the result and then changing the port back again to the correct setting and saving the configuration. After these gyrations, the controller and the second device both reported online. Of course, another reboot resulted in them being offline again.

  2. I think I traced the source of my original issue with the 2.3.0 Z-Wave binding and the 2.4.0 Z-Wave binding to the following ZWave.me services

zbw_connect
z-way-server

I stopped them and then disabled them. After this and another reboot, everything worked properly. (I don’t recall if I needed to reconfigure the controller. However, after multiple reboots Z-Wave comes up properly every time.)

  1. The Z-Wave controller offline after reboot appears to have been caused by an improperly installed Z-Wave binding

  2. Although strictly unnecessary in my case, I added the UDEV rules to my Raspberry Pi per H102’s suggestion. The advantage in my case is that it makes identifying the ports to use clearer as I now have symlinks to /dev/ttyUSB-Insteon and /dev/ttyUSB-W-Zave

Now on to washing machine notifications via my Z-Wave switch.

Burzin

Thanks @Burzin_Sumariwalla for sharing your solution, I’m sure others will find this helpful.
Click the square box on your post to mark as solved.

Thanks again

Hi, where and how did find these both services: zbw_connect and z-way-server?

I think I found reference to them in the Z Wave.ME documentation (which is awful). As for finding the service on Linux, try

ps -ef | grep -i zbw_connect
ps -ef | grep -i z-way-server

Regards,
Burzin

Thanks, I cannot find either of them, so in my case it must be something else. I’ve already spent hours on this issue and cannot get it done… I installed Z-Wave binding 2.4.0 via OH2/PaperUI, I configured UDEV and symlinks and this part works fine, i cannot figure out why after reboot Z-wave controller cannot connect and it is required to press soft-restart to get it back online.

Does anyone have any other hints perhaps? Where to look for.
I installed the OH2 on Linux Ubuntu 18.4 LTS via the automatic setup. I tried to clear the tmp and cache folders and it did the trick but only for the first restart, subsequent restarts gave negative outcome.

I have the same issue. Did you discover anything?
My problem started after moving to the 2.4.0 SNAPSHOT build.

Unsure if I solved the issue permanently, however after reinstalling OH2 via OpenHABIAN last two reboots were successful, meaning Zwave controller got attached properly.

Yikes. Hoping to avoid having to do a full re-install. Are you on the snapshot, or the stable release?

stable release

I am experiencing this issue as well with 2.5.0 as of 20190709

openhab> bundle:list | grep -i wave
187 │ Active   │  80 │ 2.5.0.201907090433     │ openHAB Add-ons :: Bundles :: ZWave Binding

I have to

bundle:stop 187
bundle:start 187

to get it working. As far as I remember this is a known ESH issue: The serial code is loading too late.

I could workaround this by doing something like

mv /usr/share/openhab2/addons/org.openhab.binding.zwave-2.5.0-SNAPSHOT.jar /usr/share/openhab2/addons/org.openhab.binding.zwave-2.5.0-SNAPSHOT.jar.tmp
sleep 5
mv /usr/share/openhab2/addons/org.openhab.binding.zwave-2.5.0-SNAPSHOT.jar.tmp /usr/share/openhab2/addons/org.openhab.binding.zwave-2.5.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

Pretty much brute force - does anybody has a more elegant solution?

I found a more elegant solution now. Create a script called restartZwave.sh:

#!/bin/sh

OPENHABBIN=/usr/share/openhab2/runtime/bin/client

bid=`echo "bundle:list --no-format" | $OPENHABBIN | grep ZWave | cut -f 1`
echo "bundle:stop $bid \nbundle:start $bid " | $OPENHABBIN

This script will find the zwave bundle id and restart zwave.
Create the following rule:

rule "rgconf_1"
when Item viTimeEvent_System_Starting changed to OFF 
then
    // uncomment to reload jsr 223 scripts
    //executeCommandLine("/bin/sh@@-c@@/usr/bin/touch /etc/openhab2/automation/jsr223/*", 1000)
    //Thread.sleep(1000);
    executeCommandLine("/home/openhabian/restartZwave.sh")
end

viTimeEvent_System_Starting is a switch item which is set to ON at system start and 5 minutes later is switched to OFF. I use this to inhibit certain actions while the system is starting up.

This issue was solved for me with the Milestone build (starting at snapshot #1656)

I am a bit lost now. I can only locate a zwave binding build “#730” as of today. Is there somewhere a mapping between snapshot number and build number?

And what is your output of “bundle:list | grep -i wave”
