Getting the following error with my new sensors and a fresh install of domoticz (stable) and the current version of the plugin:

Moving the first sensor closer to the RPi makes the above problem go away after a full restart of RPI.

So, whenever a sensor is out of range, the plugin crashes and will not work until RPi/Domoticz is restarted..

[asquelt]

i confirm. poller is not wrapped in try/expect, so if the poller fails the whole plugin goes down.

[flatsiedatsie]

Thanks! @asquelt could you propose code to fix it?

[asquelt]

i did a quick fix, just wrapping arround with try/expect. but i went for vacation and after few weeks entire Domoticz has stalled. so there must be a deadlock somewhere and entire plugin needs to be audited for that. i haven't had time since then to look into that.

[flatsiedatsie]

Could you share the wrapped version?

@asquelt and @flatsiedatsie

I do have the same problem with the sensor out of range, how did you manage to fix it? without a crash of all the plugin each time it is too far ?!

[flatsiedatsie]

I just tried to add a fix. Let me know if it solves the problem.

[adrienvia]

arf, I just did à git pull, and now I have new problem :P

See PR #7

[flatsiedatsie]

Thanks!

[adrienvia]

thanks it worked, and I think the plugin does not crash entirely now if the captor is out of range.

[flatsiedatsie]

Great to hear!
