z-wave-server restart failed

Post by bmal66 »

One of my razberry installation doesn't want to start with this error :

Do you have an idea ? I'm f...ed with so many of my razberry with different errors... I really begin to lose faith on your capacity to deliver a working product

If you do not give more detail about your installation (software version, installed devices, etc.) it is hard to tell what could be wrong.
So as a start can you tell what modules are installed in Home Automation UI?

We used default installation modules. We install latest production release of the driver.
This razberry is a 3rd gen one.

Don't think so. Like I said it's a 3rd gen board. So it must be a fall 2014 raspbian install We just updated the razberry driver
Do you think I need a raspbian update too ?

No, not necessarily since you are still on 2.0.0 if I understood correctly. I just wanted to know if you might be using one of the other distros.

I am afraid I have to leave this to the developers to answer. Unfortunately they haven't been very active here lately due to commitments for Cebit, and the final touches on v2.0.1 I assume

I did install cron module that correct my error but there is still no expert interface. Here the final extract from z-way-server.log :

Since some days I face similar problems.
Some basic information:
Raspberry Pi B, RaZberry Controller with following details: ProductID: 2/3, Chip ZW0301, SDK: 4.54.01, serial API version: 04.02, software version: v2.0.0.
Since October 2014 I have been using version z-way-server-RaspberryPiXTools-v1.7.2. without any problems. Based on that I implemented a lot in context of FHEM. Fibaro roller shutter have been working fine. Because of facing troubles with "Danfoss Thermostat living connect" I "switched" back to z-way-controller.
I installed version v2.0.0 and since that I does not have any more a stable situation.
Always stable is the access to the home page (http://IP:8083); the GUI for Home Automation, TV and Mobile can be accessed. Choosing the Expert GU brings up in 95 % of all trials the message: "Error handling data from server".
The Logfile shows in case of errors (selection):

Code: Select all

[2015-03-24 16:48:26.341] [D] [zway] Worker thread successfully finished
[2015-03-24 16:48:26.369] [I] [core] Notification: critical (z-wave): Can not start Z-Wave binding: Error: Bad data - communication failed
[2015-03-24 16:48:32.635] [E] [zway] SaveData will not save data since it wasn't loaded. This is to prevent data loss.
or

Code: Select all

[2015-03-24 16:15:56.848] [I] [core] Starting storage...
[2015-03-24 16:15:56.852] [I] [core] ZWay Automation started

[2015-03-24 16:16:08.090] [E] [zway] SaveData will not save data since it wasn't loaded. This is to prevent data loss.
This are basically the two reasons for the malfunction.

In the rare cases of getting to the Expert UI the connection to the controller is available. The logfile looks as follows:

During all these trials I stopped the Pi and booted again, even with couple of minutes between !
My "idea box" is empty !
Any ideas and hints are welcome !
Thanks in advance.
