Openluup - verabridge can not load devices.

The D_XYX.json controls the icons display. I suspect though that you are missing the icon file which is buried in the /www folder of the vera and has been moving around from version to version of firmware and might be what is failing?

Yes, it’s possible that the icons are not found. The bridge does try downloading them from different places according to the firmware, but maybe that’s what’s gone wrong. A log file showing the GetVeraFiles activity would confirm that.

Just picked dimmable lights as an example. Looking in d_DimmableLight1.json I see this in the first few lines:
"default_icon": "dimmable_light_default.png",
"state_icons": [
{
"img": "dimmable_light_100.png",

These files are on the RPI
pi@raspberrypi:/etc/cmh-ludl/icons $ ls dimmable
dimmable_light_100.png dimmable_light_40.png dimmable_light_80.png
dimmable_light_10.png dimmable_light_50.png dimmable_light_90.png
dimmable_light_20.png dimmable_light_60.png dimmable_light_default.png
dimmable_light_30.png dimmable_light_70.png dimmable_light_off.png

But I am only getting the generic z-wave icon in the UI

Is there a file ownership issue? ie. can you actually see those files if you look for them through the openLuup server? I have seen this sometimes, depending on how openLuup is started at boot time. How DOES your openLuup startup work?

Interesting, just noticed that the files on the RPI are 0 bytes. Let me see if I can figure out why.

So I copied all the png files off my Vera and moved them into the /cmh-ludl/icons folder on my rpi. That fixed the bulb icons for dimmable lights and some of the others. I am still getting generic icons for binary lights. According to the json file it should be using the binary_light_default.png file. file is there in the icons folder and has the following permissions.
-rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 683 Dec 13 07:44 binary_light_default.png
Looks the same as the dimable light png file that works
-rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 909 Dec 13 07:44 dimmable_light_20.png
Are there other locations the app looks for to finds icons to use?

[akbooer]

Apps don’t look for icons, AltUI does. Also, openLuup itself.

Does the openLuup console Devices page look any different (from an icon POV) from that of the AltUI one?

[RogerO]

Well, left to run some errands and looking now, all the icons are correct except for a few like eventwatcher, sonos and vera Alerts. No idea why. OpenLuup and ALTUI are both showing correct icons now.

[rafale77]

Maybe a browser cache refresh?

@rogero said in Get Vera files throwing errors:

Interesting, just noticed that the [icon] files on the RPI are 0 bytes.

This issue is now solved:
