Looks like a permission problem to me. Does the container have the permissions to access your Bluetooth device?

And does the user in your container also have the permissions to do so?

If it works, we can also merge the docker file, if you want. Maybe other users would also be interested...

I dont know anything about merging.

Strange thing is that I am able to use hcitool and scan Bluetooth within the container. Also gatttool i am able to make an connection.

dockerhub already lists a few containers for plantgateway. did you have a look at what they're doing?

[Martinvdm]

didn't succeed in solving this issue. removed plantgateway and solved it with sensor in HA directly.
