[Solved] Error: Command timeout
G
at _ClientAPI._commandTimeout (http://192.168.1.100:8111/client/ClientAPI.js:807:179 Seeing this randomly when returning to open browser tab after being away awhile. Once, maybe twice a day. "What did you do to trigger it?" Literally nothing, just walked away and returned and there it was. Actions taken in reasonably close proximity to this particular instance of it popping up: I'd restarted the MSR container in Portainer. I'll try to grab some logs here shortly.

Issue with MSR UI becoming unresponsive
S
I'm having an issue with MSR's UI being very unresponsive. It started happening a couple days ago and I didn't make any changes that would have caused this except adding some meross lan devices in HA. When I go into an entity action and use the search functionality, it usually will start filtering and then get to a place after a few letters are entered where it will take 30 seconds or more (sometimes minutes) for the UI to show what I am typing. During this time MSR ui is completely unresponsive. I've tried multiple browsers and multiple computers. HA and MSR are both deployed in docker. I have run HTOP on the host and when the problem happens there are no CPU/Memory spikes at all. From a functionality standpoint MSR is working perfectly. This seems to be an UI issue only. Do i need to ditch Docker and run MSR on a Proxmox VM? I have both stand alone Docker and Proxmox environments. I dont mind doing that I just want to be able to use the UI again...

Notice to Docker + ARM Users (RPi 3/4/5 and others)
toggledbitsT
This post does not apply to users of Intel/AMD-based systems. If you are using a Reactor image tagged latest-amd64 or stable-amd64, then this post does not apply to you. It also does not apply to bare-metal installs; it's for users of docker images on ARM-based systems only (principally Raspberry Pi hosts, but could be others). After January 15, 2026, I will no longer produce the aarch64-tagged docker image for Reactor. The ARM images will be arm64 for 64-bit operating systems, and armv7l for 32-bit operating systems. For those of you running a container from the aarch64 image today, this will be a relatively simple change: you just need to switch the image used for your docker container to a differently-tagged image. If you are using docker-compose, then this is a relatively simple matter of changing the image line in your docker-compose.yaml file and then stopping (docker-compose down) and restarting (docker-compose up -d) your Reactor daemon. But there's a catch... not all of you can safely just switch from the aarch64 image to the arm64 image. And, you can't just trust the output of uname -m, for example, because this exposes the CPU architecture, but not the word size of the OS running on that CPU. For Raspberry Pi systems, the transition to 64-bit operating systems was long (starting in 2016) and not always obvious — although there was a first "official" 64-bit OS for RPis in 2020, it did not become a default recommendation in the Raspberry Pi Imager until 2021, and then that was only the default for Pi 3/4 systems with >4GB RAM; it was 2022 before it was universally recommended for all 64-bit CPUs regardless of RAM size. Depending on when you first imaged your RPi system and what default you may have been offered/chosen, you could today easily have a 64-bit CPU Raspberry Pi running a 32-bit version of the operating system. Upgrades along the way would not change this; changing it to fully 64-bit requires a full reimage of the system. To establish if your OS is 64- or 32-bit, log in to your Pi and run: sudo dpkg-architecture -q DEB_HOST_ARCH. If the response is arm64 or aarch64, then you are running a 64-bit OS and you should use the arm64-tagged image. If it's anything else, you are running a 32-bit OS, and you should use the armv7l-tagged image. pi@rpi4-1:~ $ sudo dpkg-architecture -q DEB_HOST_ARCH armhf pi@rpi4-1:~ $ uname -m aarch64 pi@rpi4-1:~ $ In the example above, the uname command reports that the CPU is 64-bit architecture (aarch64), which is true for the host on which I ran these commands, but the DEB_HOST_ARCH value is armhf, indicating a 32-bit operating system. This system has to use the armv7l-tagged image. Other systems will have their own ways of determining the word size of the running OS. Since the majority of Reactor users running ARM systems are on Raspberry Pis, I am able to supply the above instructions, but if you happen to have a different ARM system, you'll need to do some web searching to figure out how to expose that information. Or, you can just try the arm64 image, and if it doesn't start up, try the armv7l image. Remember to always back up your system before making any changes. For everyone, please make this change as soon as possible, and if you have any trouble finding a working image, please (1) go back to the current aarch64 image; and (2) let me know in this thread along with as much detail about your host system as you can offer (including the output of the dpkg-architecture command mentioned above).

Requesting a proper ARM64/aarch64 Docker image (Pi 5 support)
M
Hi, I'm in the process of migrating from a Raspberry Pi 4 (ARMv7) to a Raspberry Pi 5 (ARMv8/aarch64), but I’ve run into an issue: there is no proper ARMv8/aarch64 image available. None of the existing images run on the Pi 5 - they all exit immediately with code 139 (segmentation fault), which typically indicates that the binaries inside the image are not compatible with the ARM64/aarch64 architecture used by the Pi 5. Would it be possible to publish a correct ARMv8/aarch64 (linux/arm64) image? Building one should be relatively straightforward using docker buildx with multi-arch support. For example, my own Node.js images are built this way: docker buildx build --push \ -t <localrepo>/<project>:<tag> \ --platform=linux/arm64,linux/amd64 \ --file ./apps/<project>/Dockerfile . This produces both the AMD64 and ARM64/v8 variants automatically. Also, as a side note, it may be best to avoid using Alpine as the base image for the ARM64 build, since musl-based builds often cause compatibility issues and unnecessary headaches. A glibc-based base image (e.g., Debian or Ubuntu) tends to work far more reliably on ARM64, especially for Node.js applications. @toggledbits - tagging you in case you missed this. Thanks, mgvra

Script action and custom timers
therealdbT
Sorry to write here without trying, but I’m flying today. Am I correct if i say that script action with alarm() makes it possible to execute a reaction in a given interval, lets say 15 seconds or 3.5 minutes? That sounds amazing, since I’ve used weird tricks, including a custom controller, just to do this.

There is an alternative to homebridge-mqttthing
CrilleC
Just throwing out a general hint to the people running Homebridge and MQTT. Homebridge MQTT-Thing hasn't been updated in almost 2 years and it falls behind on compatibility with the development of Homebridge. I was looking for a replacement and found Homebridge Easy MQTT and I think it's a good replacement for MQTT-Thing. I particularly find Easy MQTT Value tranformers easier to to understand and use compared to MQTT-Thing Apply function. It took a while to migrate everything but I'm pleased and can recommend.

Reactor Version 25310 : Office Light control via rule in reactor no longer working since last update.
P
Hello, I currently have an office light (connected via a Leviton Zwave Dimmer switch) controlled from a Gen5 Aeotech Zwave switch installed on my Synology 720+ NAS. I run HA(2025.11.10) in a virtual machine from my NAS and Reactor on the container manager of the same NAS. Prior to updating to 25304 the rule I had set to turn the light on to a specific dimming value worked correctly. Now the rule appears to follow the decision tree, however the reaction does not trigger setting the dimming or turning on the office light? Strangely I can still turn the light on and off as well as dim it directly from HASS..? I have tried using the ''try this action'' button in the rules reaction setting and it will not control the light and does not throw an error flagÉ Please help, P.S Reactor has been rock steady for me over the last few years and I'm a big fan of this solution.

Shelly Wall Display XL
therealdbT
I don't know if you guys are into dashboards, but I am. For a second home I tried the Shelly Wall Display 2, and while not so big, it worked well over the summer. Since we're remodeling our house, I just swapped my old Fire Tablet (with its own problems) with two new Shelly Wall Display XL. I just removed the standard firmware, and I added mine (https://github.com/dbochicchio/ShellyElevate), forked from https://github.com/RapierXbox/ShellyElevate I just managed to support buttons (this thing has 4 of them) and it's all auto-discovered by Home Assistant and accessible via Reactor. I also have a new build in the works with support for buttons inside HA. I added a bonus Javascript interface sending events (screen/screensaver status, buttons, motion) to automatically drive the dashboard (all doing in HTML+Javascript and monitoring Reactor's variable). This specifical thing excluded, go get one of them, the device has a decent CPU for HA dashboards and blends wonderfully in the decor.

    This plugin has its own GUI, and is almost structurally standalone. I've contacted the developers to ask if its possible with a direct API and to run it as a service to cut domoticz out of the chain..

    I can now confirm that TRADFRI and Aqara will work together just fine, with repeaters helping for both systems:

    So, the resolution to the recent errors was that the UZB Stick was set up with "Bridge" firmware! to fix, go to ExpertUI - Network - Control - Firmware - Switch to "Normal" Firmware.
    I may have been blinded by the "F**k, nothing i try works", but i think this detail could be more visible to beginners in some way, i.e. a small pop-up message when you try to add sensors in a-way (which requires normal mode FW).. I will pitch this to the z-way guys.

    Onwards!

  • Another transition from Vera to OpenLuup And now to HASS - PerH

    Did this:
    @rafale77 said in z-way-server ubuntu install:

    @PerH

    The problem is that libcurl3 is not in the standard repo you have listed.
    assuming you are on ubuntu download it from here:

    Ubuntu – Error

    You need to pick from the correct platform.
    wget --url you can paste from the link above--

    i.e

    wget http://no.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/c/curl3/libcurl3_7.58.0-2ubuntu2_amd64.deb
    

    downloading from the norwegian mirror for x64

    Then run

    dpkg -i libcurl3_7.58.0-2ubuntu2_amd64.deb
    

    might need sudo authority to install.

    Edit: Another idiot way to do it is to not install libcurl3 at all and instead create a symbolic link for libcurl3 to call libcurl4 (That's how I am running mine 🤘 )

    sudo ln -s /usr/local/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl-gnutls.so.4 /usr/local/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl-gnutls.so.3
    
    sudo ln -s /usr/local/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4 /usr/local/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.3
    

    Note that you will need to find where your libcurl library was installed. I just gave you the ubuntu location.

    and

    apt install curl
    systemctl disable openluup.service
    systemctl enable openluup.service
    systemctl start openluup.service
    

    up and running again. Now the appstore is OK too, commencing attempt 2 on z-way bridge.

  • openLuup Z-Way bridge: Version Log
    PerHP PerH

    There is an additional license for the Z-Way software, but I would say it is well worth it. My experience is that it's extremely stable (haven't crashed once in the years i've had it), and the control of the network through the expert panel is probably the best you can find.
    The "Smart Home" UI is not great, but it doesn't matter much if you're using openLuup. 🙂

  • Another transition from Vera to OpenLuup And now to HASS - PerH
    PerHP PerH

    I finally reached the finishline for the move-to-docker project! 🙂
    All applications are now inside dockers, communicating on the internal docker network.

    This makes updates easy - just update to a newer docker image. (or update in the app, in the openLuup case)

    Backup is done by copying the docker volumes to an SSD along with the indluxDB.

    Restore to any machine running docker is in principle just attaching the USB devices - install ser2net, and running one docker-compose file. Everything is set up and ready to go. Tested on an Ubuntu installed machine, and it works!

    This will offcourse take a bit more disk-space, havent summed it up yet.. But i have no plans on running this on machines with tiny storage anyway.

    One thing i'd like to improve is to get the UZB into Ser2net as well, with the advantage of accessing it from my test-system as well. Z-Way unfortunately can't take IP-serial without Socat? mabye in later updates.

    I made this sketch to keep track of the system in progress, it might be usefull to others?

  • Another transition from Vera to OpenLuup And now to HASS - PerH
    PerHP PerH

    After about 7 years in the Vera/openLuup world i've now moved on to a home assistant installation. This was rather reluctantly, as openLuup has served me well with very few issues (other than ones I created myself off course!). A big thanks to @akbooer and all contributors for all the good work with this software!

    The main reason for jumping the fence to HASS was in short all the integrations and UI possibilities. The device handling for Zigbee and RFXtrx is also developing to be really good, and is still maintained.
    There is still plenty of annoying bugs/imperfections with HASS, but the maturity is at a level where most of what I need works well enough.
    My system is now:

    • HASS Container
      • Z-wave JS UI for z-wave (Still prefer Z-Way here, but the integration isn't good there yet)
      • ZHA for zigbee
      • RFXTRX plugin for 433
      • HASS Configurator for UI file editor for both HASS and MSR configuration files
    • MSR for all automations
    • Grafana and InfluxDB 1.8 (upgrading to 2.0 in a while)

    So far so good! 🙂

  • MSR in Alpine Docker
    PerHP PerH

    I have a docker running smoothly now, thought i'd share it. (and BTW, it looks awesome, Patrick!)
    So far i've only opened 8111, and /config as volume. Mabye the full /reactor folder should be exposed for easy updating?

    docker compose:

    version: "3.9"
    services:
      MSR:
        container_name: MSR
        restart: always
        image: perhu/msr-alpine:latest
        ports:
          - "8111:8111"
        networks:
          HAnett:
            ipv4_address: 192.168.0.8
        volumes:
          - type: bind
            source: /etc/localtime
            target: /etc/localtime
          - type: volume
            source: MSR-config
            target: /etc/reactor/config
          - type: volume
            source: MSR-storage
            target: /etc/reactor/storage
    logging:
            driver: "json-file"
            options:
                max-file: "5"
                max-size: 10m
    networks:
        HAnett:
            name: HAnett
            driver: bridge
            ipam:
                config:
                    - subnet: 192.168.0.0/16
                      gateway: 192.168.0.254
    volumes:
      MSR-config:
        name: MSR-config
      MSR-storage:
        name: MSR-storage
    

    dockerfile for those who want to modify the image: (this works if you have unzipped MSR zip file to the same folder as the dockerfile)

    FROM alpine:latest
    
    COPY /reactor/. /etc/reactor/
    
    RUN apk add --update nodejs npm && cd /etc/reactor \
            && npm install --loglevel error --no-save \
            && cp dist-config/* config/
    
    VOLUME ["/etc/reactor/config"]
    
    VOLUME ["/etc/reactor/storage"]
    
    EXPOSE 8111
    
    CMD ["/bin/sh"]
    
    WORKDIR /etc/reactor
    
    CMD ["node", "/etc/reactor/app.js"]

  • MSR in Alpine Docker
    PerHP PerH

    @LibraSun asked about MSR docker on synology in another thread. I don't know whats special on synology as i don't hvae one, but this is how you can do it on other linux systems (and please correct me if something's wrong in the write-up, im still learning here!):

    Start by downloading reactor from the bugtracker place and unzip it to an appropriate folder on the NAS called "/.../reactor/"
    Edit your /reactor/config/reactor.yaml with the appropriate settings
    In the same folder you have the /reactor/ sub folder, create a textfile called "dockerfile" (no extension)
    paste this in:

    FROM alpine:latest
    
    COPY /reactor/. /etc/reactor/
    
    RUN apk add --update nodejs npm && cd /etc/reactor \
           && npm install --loglevel error --no-save \
           && cp dist-config/* config/
    
    VOLUME ["/etc/reactor/config"]
    
    VOLUME ["/etc/reactor/storage"]
    
    EXPOSE 8111
    
    CMD ["/bin/sh"]
    
    WORKDIR /etc/reactor
    
    CMD ["node", "/etc/reactor/app.js"]
    

    save & close, and then type docker build -t your/image:version .

    Then you can make a docker-compose like mine in the above post, or you can use run command:
    docker run -p 8111:8111 your/image:version

    Note: @toggledbits prefers to keep control over MSR distribution through the alpha/beta testing, so publishing on dockerhub is not an option. You can have private repositories there as well in order to transfer an image between machines easily.

    I think so, yes. As simple as possible, unless we loose functionality, which i don't think is the case here?

  • How does MSR keep in sync with devices and scenes on Vera?
    PerHP PerH

    Isn't the vera updates based on polling? if so, it will only be updated at that interval.. I think the approach used in domoticz bridge is better, with some script on the host (domoticz in that case) yelling to the bridge on changes..

    Haven't touched my system for a while (or read updates here), busy with other projects..
    Just have to mention that I updated to the latest today and found the new entity selector tool... LOVE it! That has been my only nagging thing about reactor since vera reactor, all that scrolling..
    Thanks, @toggledbits, this is really turning into something VERY good!

  • Release 1.0.0
    PerHP PerH

    Haven't been able to do much helping on this for a while, but after installing the release docker, and moving the rest my automation to MSR i feel the need to say:
    GOOD JOB!
    Especially to Patrick, but also to all contributors.

    Automation is now very fast and intuitive to set up, and I still havent found anything i can't do with this. No bugs as far as i've seen yet either!

  • [Solved] Big change in my system - How to update MSR as best as possible?
    PerHP PerH

    I just gave up waiting for the HASS Z-wave.me integration to finish, and set up Zwave JS UI instead. In the same operation, all zigbee and 433 devices was moved from openluup to HASS as well, so all devices now have a new address.

    I thought I saw some "replace device" function in MSR earlier, but now I didnt find it?

    I've done a lot of the changes manually now, and removed openluup as a system, but at every restart I still get the warning/errors about the old units. I assume it's because rules ask for them? This is where that "replace this with this" would come in handy..

    Right now, my problem is that the rules i did update doesn't pull any levers in HASS. If I go in and run the action line in the rule manually, it works, but only with the arrow button on the actual action, not the common arrow button in "set reaction".

    Any tips/hints on making this transition easier is much appreciated. 🙂
