Reactor-Editor / Reactor-ui-Status Errors

[a-lurker]

Looking at the log it says its missing json.lua. This message tells me you are still running the old plugin from the MIOS store.

Not sure what hardware you are using? The old Vera 3 can't access the Alt App store as the comms library is too antiquated. Regardless you can just download the files from GitHub and overwrite the mios ones. Use the Vera user interface (ie not directly with SSH) as Vera compresses the files when you upload them via the UI. In Vera 3 they end up in etc\cmh-ludl as "lzo" files

The latest version of the plugin looks for ten different possibly available json libraries - see this GitHub link.

If you look in (a Vera 3) /usr/lib/lua you may find dkjson.lua, which in this case is a sym link to /mios/usr/lib/lua/dkjson.lua

You can use the command in AltUI --> Misc --> OsCommand -->Find Json to see what might be available to you. Note that this search doesn't always find what's available. But I would expect dkjson.lua is available and will be found and used by the latest version of the plugin.

@a-lurker Next instalment (sorry!). I re-downloaded the files from Github following the link you kindly provided in your previous post. There were three files plus a number of other files in a separate folder. I copied all the files from the .zip file into a folder on my desktop and uploaded them to my vera plus and tried a number of luup reloads. Was that correct - i.e. should I have uploaded all files (including the ones in the folder) as separate files and not in the actual folder?

Anyhow, something happened because now I get the following (note I have 14 devices:

and in 'Add Devices'

So I did not see the previous result before. But you can see that my devices are not being found. I have looked in the luup logs and there are no errors I can see. I also cannot see the device number listed in the log. I don't know if that means that anything.

Thanks.

[a-lurker]

Not quite right. You only need the files in the folder called "Luup_device". When uploaded they should not be uploaded as a folder. Here is the list of files that need to be directly uploaded:

S_OWServer.xml
D_OWPressureSensor.json
D_OWPressureSensor.xml
D_OWServer.json
D_OWServer.xml
I_OWServer.xml
J_OWServer.js
L_OWServer.lua
S_OWPressureSensor.xml

Did you check for a json library using AltUI? Because you will need one of some description.

[Talisker]

@a-lurker I meticulously installed all the files in the folder only as you stated. I trawled the luup log and found the following. It appears that the plugin does see my 14 one wire temperature devices, but for some reason will not let me set them up as devices:

Could this be a fundamental problem with my particular vera plus, because I have to install the device manually. It will not install via ALTUI?

[a-lurker]

Looks promising - hopefully you should see under the AltUI variables tab "DebugEnabled". You can set it to one and restart the Luup engine and get more log info. You should also see "PluginVersion", which should probably be 0.52? No mention on whether AltUI detected a json library?

"Could this be a fundamental problem with my particular vera plus, because I have to install the device manually. It will not install via ALTUI?" No don't think so.

[Talisker]

@a-lurker Sorry, yes the AltUI did detect a json library (or at least I think so):

Yes, it looks like the PluginVersion os 0.52:

Any clues there?

[a-lurker]

All looks fine to me. It's now got a json library and it's reading from the one wire server and finding all the devices. It's also the correct plugin version number. Have you checked the "No room" for see if the child temperature sensors have turned up. If none - need to do a luup engine restart. It can take a while before actual temperatures are displayed ( I think it works out to 45 seconds). They then update at the default rate of every 20 seconds.

[Talisker]

@a-lurker So I think we proved that I have the correct plugin version, the plugin is correctly set up as the one wire devices IDs are listed in the logs. What is not happening is the devices (14 No. in my case) are not showing up in add devices (similar in ALTUI):

I have tried multiple luup re-loads and vera restarts, but the devices just aren't showing. I feel I am so close, yet not quite at the finish line! Is there anything else I can do or try? Thanks.

OK I've figured out what's going wrong (till proved otherwise!). I need to rehash some code, test and post to GitHub - give it a day or so.

[a-lurker]

I have done the mods and retested. Hopefully they will work. When the plugin is updated it will show the "PluginVersion" as 0.53 rather than the current 0.52

The github page has been updated to improve upon the previous paltry documentation - have a read of it. You only need to upload two files to Vera, as all the others are unchanged:

J_OWServer.js
L_OWServer.lua

Make sure both are uploaded via the Vera UI. Be careful to uncheck the "Restart Luup after upload" checkbox situated below the "Upload" button - so you don't go through two loads. ie uncheck for the first file you upload and then recheck before you upload the second.

There were a few changes needed - the plugin was originally written over ten years ago and things have moved on a little since then.

Note that there is no "Automatic" creation of the child devices. You select which sensors you want in the Vera UI and then hit the "Add" button. The system then restarts and the child devices will became available.

Let me know how it goes.

[Talisker]

@a-lurker Great! I am away for a couple of days with work. I'll follow your instructions and give it a try when I get home on Friday. Standby.

[Talisker]

@a-lurker Everything is working as expected now. Thank you once again for all the support and for updating the plugin. Next step...... database and graphing.
