Failed to start EZSP layer Error while starting zigbee-herdsman

metramo commented 1 month ago

What happened?

I tried to start using Zigbee2MQTT with my Homeassistant green in order to be able to control mySonoff and other devices in a more complete way.

Not easy understanding everything.

I had/have some zigbee devices not using MQTT and actually I don't know how to remove them, before finding them under MQTT, maybe this is the problem
It seems I dont need SOCAT since the dongle is plugged directly in the homeassistant Green
I have to check the driver and read that part
Also the serial interface seems ok
MQTT itself seems to work
I don't really know how to check the EZSP error messages including ember uart

I get the following printout in the log [2024-10-27 10:47:19] info: zh:ember:uart:ash: ======== ASH Adapter reset ======== [2024-10-27 10:47:19] info: zh:ember:uart:ash: ======== ASH starting ======== [2024-10-27 10:47:22] error: z2m: Error while starting zigbee-herdsman [2024-10-27 10:47:22] error: z2m: Failed to start zigbee [2024-10-27 10:47:22] error: z2m: Check https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/guide/installation/20_zigbee2mqtt-fails-to-start.html for possible solutions [2024-10-27 10:47:22] error: z2m: Exiting...

What did you expect to happen?

I expected Zigbee2MQTT to start and become available so that I could autodiscover a sonoff zbmini2 (The zbmini worked without ZigbeeMQTT

I changed the dongle to a different USB port (avoid USB 3.0), restarted the PC, and once I changed to the settings below, it started working.

I believe this may be related to the issue #23282 I have reported a while ago. It happens randomly and starts with a crash then I need to restart HAOS VM to regain connection to the dongle, otherwise I continue to receive the HOST_FATAL_ERROR. It seems that z2m cannot reset the dongle at start until the next reboot.
