dzVents runtime problem?

[MasterMD]

Version: V3.9483
Platform: Synology DS112+
Description:
I want to create some dzVents scripts using the web editor.
According the dzVents 2.4x version description I should get some boilerplate examples in the drip-down below the script type setting; but there aren't.
Several of the keywords as shown in the docs are not available.
When I save a new script, the log states: "dzVents: Write file: /usr/local/domoticz/var/scripts/dzVents/generated_scripts/Test.lua"
However the script isn't run because of this error: "EventSystem: in /usr/local/domoticz/var/dzVents/runtime/dzVents.lua: cannot open /usr/local/domoticz/var/dzVents/runtime/dzVents.lua: No such file or directory"

How can I fix this?

You are using a quite old Beta. If there are newer Beta's available at Jumbotroll's site for your NAS, I advise you to update and try again.

Unfortunately, this seems to be the latest version for my NAS.
Any other possibilities?

Maybe this workaround
can help you ?

Quite a complicated workaround?
I am using an older beta for DSM6.2 (domoticz_88f6282-6.2_3.0.9483-7.spk).
The site shows a version "4.9700 stable for DSM6.1" applicable to a DS112+, but I am using DSM 6.2.
Is there any possibility to use that version or even one of the "4.9700 stable for DSM6.2" version (not showing the DS112+)?

No not really complicated . if you copy/paste these 4 lines while on the CLI , it will take max. 10 seconds.

Code: Select all

sudo mkdir /usr/local/domoticz/dzVents
sudo mkdir /usr/local/domoticz/dzVents/runtime
cd /usr/local/domoticz/dzVents/runtime
sudo cp -r /usr/local/domoticz/var/dzVents/runtime/* .

Thanks for this, but unfortunately it's not enough ...
I created several directories.
Now, when I save a scripts it is saved according the log "dzVents: Write file: /usr/local/domoticz/var/scripts/dzVents/generated_scripts/Test.lua"
However, as soon as the events are triggered this error appears:
2018-11-10 15:38:56.188 Error: EventSystem: in /usr/local/domoticz/var/dzVents/runtime/dzVents.lua: cannot open /usr/local/domoticz/var/dzVents/runtime/dzVents.lua: No such file or directory
Apparently it looks for dzVents.lua and not for another lua-script.
I searched the whole domoticz environment, but didn't find any part of dzVents.

For fun I copied my Test1.lua into dzVents.lua.
Now Domotics logs: "Lua script /usr/local/domoticz/var/dzVents/runtime/dzVents.lua did not return a commandArray"
According the info from Domotics' About: dzVents Version: 2.4.5, but it looks an older version (or even just lua)?

There was quite a lengthy discussion on the same or similar issue here .
If that does not help mayby @jumbotroll can help you out.

OK, let's try to get some response over there!
