Ooops - Deleted Reactor Ex Machina II

[gwp1]

I'm using ZWaveJSUI 1.4.2 within Home Assistant 2023.1.3. ZWaveJSController has been quite happy with it until I upgraded ZWaveJSController to 23010. This morning my iblinds weren't responding at all.

As I'd made some changes to the rules I figured it was my work and returned it to original rules. No change (iblinds not responding.)

Restarted MSR.
Restarted ZWaveJSUI.
No change.

Rolled back ZWaveJSController to prior version 22323 and all is well again, iblinds responding.

Thinking on this as I'm writing it and I realized there was a light on this morning that shouldn't have been. I now realize it's on the ZWaveJSUI as well and didn't turn off last night as the house went to sleep.

I have the reactor.log if @toggledbits would like it.

I'll send you a link to upload it.

[gwp1]

@toggledbits Uploaded.

The uploaded log doesn't contain a Reactor startup and the initialization of ZWaveJS, so to investigate the problem as reported in the topic title, I can't do anything with it. Can you reinstall the update and capture a startup log?

Also, I assume based on the topic title that the controller is reporting down in the Status view? That would be consistent with "not communicating with ZWaveJSUI".

@toggledbits Updated the topic title to better reflect what is happening as they are "connecting" just not responding.

Did confirm after redeploying the 23010 version iblinds are unresponsive to triggered Reactions within MSR.

Uploading recent reactor.log momentarily.

@gwp1 said in ZWaveJSUI not responding to ZWaveJSController:

OK. So that's a different direction. Before capturing and uploading a log, set the log level for ZWaveJSController to 5. If you're not sure how to do that:

Look in logging.yaml (in config) and see if it has a ZWaveJSController: entry. If so, modify it to look like the content below. If not, add the content below to the file.

  ZWaveJSController:
    level: 5
    streams:
      - type: file
        name: zwavejs.log
        keep: 2
        level: 999
        recycle: true

The restart. Then, run some tests, not using reactions, just running the actions directly from the Entities list entries. Make a note of each action you try and what (if anything) happens. Then upload the log and send me the list of actions you tried (in the order that you tried them, to match the log). Also, send only the zwavejs.log file, not the reactor.log file.

Do you have a custom zwave_data.zip or similar files in your config directory? If so, please upload them as well.

@toggledbits Sorry, just caught this now - no, there is no such archive in the config directory.

Did receive your DM - installing now.

@toggledbits I can confirm success. iblinds WAI with 23011.
