full devices reset

[rafale77]

@iRobot, It helps but the cgi @akbooer is asking for would be better.
@akbooer Could you please provide the lua script to delete the bridge devices so as to recreate the devices. I get the feeling they were previously created and are not numbered right. I could rewrite it but am typo prone without testing...

[iRobot]

@rafale77 @akbooer Just update the Z-Way plugin to the github.master but still only a header is showing.

Maybe I'm better of trying a fresh install of openLuup and the plugin in a different VM. The one I'm using now is kind of my production as well.

[rafale77]

Maybe brute force would be to delete the z-way bridge device, openluup will reload, check if the child devices are still there, if they are, delete them (was not an option to do manually for me as I had several hundreds) and then re-add the bridge device. All the child devices would be recreated then.

[akbooer]

No, no, openLuup is not like Vera in that respect. Deleting everything and starting again is seldom the answer.

Following @rafale77 ’s proposal, however, the easiest thing is actually to delete the ZWay plugin device and recreate it.

[akbooer]

OK, we posted at the same time, with the same advice!

[iRobot]

Ok, will delete the ZWay plugin and go from there.

[akbooer]

Do check Room 101 for any “lost” devices. You can delete any all in one go using the openLuup plugin action EmptyRoom101.

[iRobot]

Deleted the ZWay plugin and removed the CGI and L_ZWay files, checked all child devices are deleted also and checked room 101.

After installing the ZWay plugin the CGI file is missing in /etc/cmh-ludl/cgi.
I retried several times using the appstore from both ALTUI and openLuup console.
To make sure its not some linux or user rights problem I even set /etc/cmh-ludl to 777.

I just set my VM back from a snapshot and will be trying again tomorrow. Time to go to bed now

[akbooer]

The AltAppStore will not, currently, install the CGI. you have to add it manually. Sorry.

[iRobot]

It's working.
Thanks to @akbooer and @rafale77 for helping!

After experimenting again this morning it's working.
The CGI is showing information now and the Greenwave is including power monitoring in openLuup.

Basically I did what was follow the instructions from last night and this morning.

• Deleting the ZWay plugin and all of it's children.
• Deleting the /etc/cmh-ludl/cgi/zway_cgi.lua and /etc/cmh-ludl/L_ZWay.lua and L_ZWay2.lua files.
• Reloading the Luup engine (this I probably forgot to do last night)
• Setting ownership on folder /cmh-ludl/cgi and all it's children to my username instead of root (not sure this is necessary)
• Installed the plugin from AltAppStore
• Downloaded the ZWay_cgi.lua from github and placed is in /etc/cmh-ludl/cgi
• Reloading the Luup engine
• Configured the IP and logon information of my ZWay
• Reloading the Luup engine

[akbooer]

Excellent! I must make this easier. It’s on the roadmap for the ZWay plugin to be more part of the standard openLuup install (like VeraBridge) so that will make it trivial.

[iRobot]

You are being to hard on yourself. You are already doing great work!

And easier would be nice to see, but that's a work in progress.
Even I was able to get it up and running, that's best advertising you can get

@iRobot

So happy to see you up and running! We all had some little bumps when we migrated, and the more people do it and report back their issues, the more cases we can cover and therefore the more robust the bridge can be. @akbooer has indeed done an awesome job between openLuup and this bridge.
