Thx for feedback.

jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

For your info: Version is current release 5.3.0

jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

JVM version on Rasbperry PI 3B+ With Debian 9: 1.8.0_265

jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

Where can i get current master branch as a compiled .jar??

jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

same problem with ha-bridge-5.3.1RC1.jar ...

jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

That output message does say ABSOLUTE NOTHING - but i think the developers know what it is...(?)

jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

@HA-Bridge developers: No idea what it is?

Thank you for your feedbacks...

With kind regards from Switzerland, Jan

bwssytems commented 3 years ago

Its just an info message that says the file path is not there yet. It is labeled as INFO and not ERROR or WARNING.

The bridge goes on after that, correct?

jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

So closed. If you have any question regarding that issue, so please don't heistate to ask me. Thanks.

With kind regards from Switzerland, Jan

jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

No...

It is NOT a memory card error!!!!

Still the same problem after a few days:

Here is the file as an original (not pasted as text) because os possible encoding problems or whatever WTF is is?!?!!

habridge.zip

jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

Same problem with a copy of the file: 

/usr/bin/java -jar -Dconfig.file=/opt/habridge/data/habridge.config.2 /opt/habridge/ha-bridge.jar
jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

That's the line where it crashes:

` setupParams(Paths.get(theBridgeSettings.getConfigfile()), ".cfgbk", "habridge.config-"); ``

BridgeSettings.java on line 228 ...

WTF is that crap?!?!

Please contact me via PM, so i can see you are interested or not (which seems to be, at least i.m.o) to prevent that behavior (maybe for future users) by fixing that bug.

You can also contact me via habridge-bug-2 (AT) crapmail.org ...

(habridge-bug-2 (AT) crapmail.org which is a redirect to my inbox is exactly active for 1 month from yesterday...)

If you have any questions regarding that issue, so please don't hesitate to contact me - youre welcome!! ;-)

jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

Re-opened...

jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

No anwser?? Maybe you can put my fix into the future 5.3.1 Release Version...?

So don't hesitate to contact me...!!

kosuodhmwa commented 3 years ago

Same problem here!!

bwssytems commented 3 years ago

So, what user is starting the ha-bridge? Does it have read/write access to the file that is being specified?

bwssytems commented 3 years ago

This is due to loading the config file and the configfile parameter is not set. If a path is given on the command line, it should just use that path after the config file load.

bwssytems commented 3 years ago

A quick work around until the new jar is released is to set the configfile parameter in the habridge.config file to the path you put on the command line.

kosuodhmwa commented 3 years ago

I used that command, as i wrote in the 1st post:

/usr/bin/java -jar -Dconfig.file=/opt/habridge/data/habridge.config /opt/habridge/ha-bridge.jar

I start it as root. The config file exists. Facts...

That hotfix helped me to solve the problem:

private void _loadConfig(final Path aPath) {
        final String jsonContent = this.configReader(aPath);
        if (jsonContent == null) {
            return;
        }
        try {
            this.theBridgeSettings = (new Gson()).fromJson(jsonContent, BridgeSettingsDescriptor.class);

            // J.M., Hotfix, 2020-11-05 {
            if (this.theBridgeSettings.getConfigfile() == null) {
                throw new Exception();
            }
            // } J.M., Hotfix, 2020-11-05

        } catch (final Exception e) {
            BridgeSettings.log.warn("Issue loading values from file: " + aPath.toUri().toString() + ", Gson convert failed.");
            this.theBridgeSettings = new BridgeSettingsDescriptor();
            this.theBridgeSettings.setConfigfile(aPath.toString());
        }
    }

I don't know, but maybe the current JVM on Raspbian Stretch is not compatible to GSON??

I get a NULL instance from this.theBridgeSettings.getConfigfile(), it does NOT catch an exception.

So the "alternative" way on the last line in the catch block does make it work.

Maybe you can investigate a lil bit closer, and maybe you can make a fix of that issue in the next version 5.3.1 ?

bwssytems commented 3 years ago

Sorry, for the confusion. You don't need to update any code to make this work with the original jar.... add a line in the habridge.config as follows:

"configfile": "/opt/habridge/data/habridge.config"

kosuodhmwa commented 3 years ago

This is my personal account.

OK, if the config file points to its own path, then it would work? I think that's also a workaround. (?)

Will that issue be fixed in the next 5.3.1 release?

(I will try it when i'm on work on monday)

Thank you very much.

jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

Thanks in advance for your feedback! :-)

bwssytems commented 3 years ago

This will be fixed in the next RC jar

jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

ok thx

bwssytems commented 3 years ago

This is now in the new RC3 jar

jayjupdhig commented 3 years ago

thx, will try it ASAP!!
