Can you tell me which version you are using exactly? How did you installed the python package? Which 868 Gateway are you using? And please post the exact line you tried.

Can you please install pypca in its own venv with this cloned git repo, to avoid all conflicts. Additionally you could try with every single one? Maybe the discovery is defective...

tomsch commented 5 years ago

i have tryed all switches. i will test it later in its own venv. Thanks for helping :)

majuss commented 5 years ago

Do you need further help to set the venv up or just time constraints :)?

majuss commented 5 years ago

Did you had any success tinkering with it?

tomsch commented 5 years ago

Sorry hat no time yet, testing it again on weekends.

Ok :) Please never use the root user (especially not with random programs from the interwebs :D)! It's very likely that you mess up file permissions.
