Well, after spending many hours in not finding the answer why the USB devices don't work I gave up
Maybe in the future I will give it a new try.

But I didn't give up on domoticz I went back to the Raspberry Pi.

thx for all the help sofar.

My point was that there shouldn’t be a need to use mknod. If you plug in a USB stick a device is created, there is noneed to do that manually. If you can’t list the device, not even by it’s /dev/tty* then something else is wrong.


Hi Bikey,

back to the drawing table.
As we have seen I can find ...

Hi Bikey,

sofar I know I am on the proxmox host. always been.

the main problem I see now is that when I do the sudo mknod /dev/ttyUSB-ZStick-5G c 188 0 (with ot without the sudo) it creates a file with the correct name.
and when I do ls -lh /dev/ttyUSB-ZStick-5G it also confirms it to me.
But when ...

Hi Bikey,

Hi,

First check in on the ProxMox-host if you can see the devices:

ls -lh /dev/ttyUSB-ZStick-5G
ls -lh /dev/ttyUSB-RFX433

It that is Ok, do the same in the LXCUbuntu container and the container with id 105.

hi, i recognise your struggling, so here is a small guide:

On the ProxMox host:

I first used the Domoticz guide create " Persistent USB Devices" . It is optional, but it makes sure that the ID of your USB does not change after a restart or when plugging in other USB-devices as well.

After that ...

Well after watching a few movies from ApfelCast as suggested by Bikey I managed to install Docker, Docker-Compose and Portainer on the server.

Hi,

In order not to have all this installation hustle, I would advice you to look at using Docker.

You can install Docker inside a LXC and get all the benefits of managing the machine with ProxMox, but without having to actually install Domoticz or other "Docker-ised" apps. So the only thing ...

Are you using the last stable or the (last) beta? I believe Hue indeed doesn't work with the last stable. This was resolved in the betas pretty soon after the last stable was released, but this solution never made it into the stable (yet).

As an alternative to Dashticz, you could also consider ...
