communication fail hours or days #4

This is a great node-red addition. I am using the communication node in my own home with a weinzierl knx ip baos 772 with no problems. I was busy with another server using a weinzierl knx ip baos 773 and the communication fails after a few hours or somtimes days. I was doing some testing, is I break the network connection, and reconnect. The knx connection will reinstate the connection only once. If I repeat the test it will not reconnect a second time.

Seems I also have compatibel issues... Knx just stops working after days/weeks. Where Can I find the logs ?

I will investigate this. I have not had access to a unit for testing in a while. I get the same issue myself after a power outage at home. I might get some time to update this today. If anyone knows a fix, I'm open for suggestions.

I have released a new version 0.0.7 that fixed my problem. My problem was when the KNX bus lost power/connection, not the gateway. I have now added new status to the nodes that shows gateway connected, but error on KNX-bus. I could not replicate your problem with loss of ethernet communication. (If I understood you correctly) ( My gateway is PoE, and I only tested by removing the plug and back again a couple of times, since its PoE it will also restart the gateway... )

There was a bug in my code that tried to instantiate more and more connections on every connection error. Maybe this caused your problem. Please try version 0.0.7 and see if it fixes your problem as well :)

Issue should be resolved now y removing that bug, we can open again if it did not solve the problem.
