I think I figured it out by installing pymodbus, pymodbusTCP and wheels via this command.
I also updated pip and all outdated packages.

Anyone already found a way on how to upgrade domoticz to use the correct version of Python?

Returning back to 2021.1 version is not an option due to missing build in plugins.
I'm running Domoticz in a docker image on a synology system (DSM7.1).

Hi all,

I'm having a similar problem on a synology system.


2022-11-17 10:47:46.566 Error: Siemens Logo I1: (ModbusREAD) failed to load 'plugin.py', Python Path used was '/opt/domoticz/userdata/plugins/modbus-read/:/usr/lib/python37.zip:/usr/lib/python3.7:/usr/lib/python3.7/lib-dynload:/usr ...

Has annyone got Smappee to work when domoticz in installed in Docker on a synology NAS?
If so, can you please tell me some tips and trick on how to get it to work?

Yes, my domoticz runs on the same Syno. Database is indeed Mariadb

I have no experience in PHP.

Thank you

what does it give when running it through putty?

This is my working code.

your welcome,

Now enjoy part 2 where you setup the settemp and setmode files

OMG it works... I thougt I already tried to not use the permanent settings. Thank you so much!

Now that settemp works: does setting the mode for the gateway also work on your system?

Yes this also works fine. just put the evo-setmode.sh file in the same folder as the evo-settemp.sh, and dont ...

You need to fill in thos credits like this.

#fill in username
usr='your honeywell mail address'
#fill in pw
pw='Your honeywell password'
#fill in Domoticz URL
url='Ip addres van je NAS'
#fill in Domoticz port
port='8084'
#fill in script root e.g. script:///home/<user>/evohome-client script ...

That was also my problem, I had to move them to the Evohome-client folder,

have you tried setting the zonetemp with an end time?

If I put it permanently it does not work.

My evo-settemp file looks like this.



from evohomeclient2 import evoconfig
from evohomeclient2 import EvohomeClient
import sys
import dateutil.parser

if len(sys.argv)<5:
until = '0-0-0T00:00:00'
elif sys.argv[4][:1] == '0':
until = '0-0-0T00:00:00'
else:
until = dateutil.parser.parse(sys.argv ...

I got the settemp and setmode modules working! :D

my solution was, move following files from the /evohome-client/evohomeclient2 folder to the /evohome-client folder
-evo-settemp.sh
-evo-setdhw.sh
-evo-setmode.sh
-evo-update.sh

mv evo-settemp.sh ..
mv evo-setdhw.sh ..
mv evo-setmode.sh ..
mv evo ...

can you try what is posted over here? and return what works and what fails?

thanks to Gordonb3 for the orginal post.

What do you see when you dir the evoclient directory?
I use the evohomeclient2, so all my files are inside the "/evohome-client/evohomeclient2" folder

did you also compile the files as stated inside the tutorial?

try to fill in the ip address of your NAS instead of "localhost" or "127.0.0.1" helped here.

Yes, this is because you run everything Inside the chroot environment.
When you moved the files, run all commands again.

You do not have to add any devices to the hardware. When you run the "evo-update.sh init" command it will add all devices automatically.

Can you just tell me where you have places all files.
I have places all under the evohome-client2 folder in the chroot folder.

when using the chroot, your files are being stored inside the chroot part, so you must link to chroot locations.

srt='script:///volume1/@appstore/debian-chroot/var/chroottarget/home/evohome-client'
