domoticz NOT running under raspian Buster !

[wuschels]

Hi,
i tried to install domoticz on a Rpi3+.
I made a clean install.
Domoticz is starting WITHOUT any error, but the UI shows the "Offline" page !!

I also tried a clean install with the latest Stretch version. Same issue..
I tried to compile domoticz from source under Buster. Same issue...

What is going on with domoticz ?

What is going on with domoticz ?

I have domoticz running on Buster and on Stretch. Compiled from source and via the standard download method. Many other users also have domoticz running on a RPI 3+ with Debian Stretch as OS and with access to the GUI using various browsers.
So the question should not be "What is going on with domoticz ? " but "What is different in my environment causing the domoticz UI to show the "Offline page ?"

Do you see anything in the log ?

Can confirm that all works ok with Buster.
Switched yesterday to a different Pi and decided to run it on Buster and had an flawless install / copy.

There was an issue with the install script but that has been solved quite recently.

Can confirm the 'race condition' with buster, domoticz fall into 'offline' at first start sometimes. But runs well if the service is started by hand again.

Suggestion: Starting at a later position while bootup can possibly fix that.

Hello, by curiosity, if you have buster and python 3.7 I presume ? Can you make a try with a python plugin and the lib requests ?
Just insert a

Code: Select all

import requests

At the top of a plugin. It seem domoticz is crashing in this situation.

I am also having problems running domoticz under Raspbian Buster.

After installation & all the automatic system upgrades, the Domoticz web page loads fine, everything looks ok, & I can install hardware (a RFX433), but when clicking Devices, nothing happens, it just says "Loading..." forever....and no devices shows up...

I have an older Domotics Raspberry Pi system running, (with older Raspbian & Domoticz versions), using RFX433, where devices do show up, so I know for sure that there are devices that should list in Devices.

My raspbian version is :
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)"
NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="10"
VERSION="10 (buster)"
VERSION_CODENAME=buster
ID=raspbian
ID_LIKE=debian
HOME_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/"
SUPPORT_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/RaspbianForums"
BUG_REPORT_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/RaspbianBugs"

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ uname -a
Linux raspberrypi 4.19.58+ #1245 Fri Jul 12 17:20:08 BST 2019 armv6l GNU/Linux
pi@raspberrypi:~ $''

My Domoticz version is : v4.10717 ( Installed using #curl -L https//install.domoticz.com | bash)

Where and how do I start troubleshooting ??? Please advise....

I have exactly the same issue with Buster and the devices tab stuck on loading...
If anybody knows the solution, please tell!

Not sure but from memory this happens only when no devices are defined yet ? So if that it the case in your situation then a workaround could be to define a dummy hardware and using that hardware to define one virtual device.

i have my current setup updated to Buster/update my kernel and firmware and had all crashes and system hangs.
Si i decide to start all over(no backup) and did a clean install of buster.
install apache2 php mariaDB and phpmyadmin.
Install domoticz and reset my zwave controller.
Add all my devices secure and install my dzvents scripts.
For now everything works well and no system hangs/crashes

Did not install any plugin for now.
Will test further tomorrow with plugins

few day further and i get back to stretch for me.
On a fresh install of buster i have problems with all my zwave devices.
i dont know if it ozwf of domoticz related but all my devices react very slow like 1 minute after a event is trigger
Hotelswitch script not been trigger(the log say triggered but the switch not) every houre in need to restart domoticz in cli etc.

Now back on stretch with a img backup(just update domoticz to the latest stable) and for now everything is going smoot en fast (fingers cross )
