Hi, I would need help on connecting this elan device to a freshly installed openhab (running on an rpi3). Currently (using this elan2mqtt) the things are listed in OH, just all of them are in an unknown state and I have no idea what went wrong. Mosquitto is running on the same host and works perfectly with this elan2mqtt. (Oh yes, this elan2mqtt is running in docker, on the same host, but with a modified Dockerfile) Thanks

Hi, I'm not familiar with openhab so my help will be limited. Use mqtt client (mqqt Lens or other) to spy on the mqtt traffic if status messages are send from elan. You can also turn on debug messages to se what elan2mqtt is doing. Once you have veryfied that messages are being sent you have to check and probably adjust openhab conf to understand them...
