I think i found the problem for the Pi problem. I have sent a patch to the admins of Domoticz so it can be included in an upcoming release. I would like to get some feedback once you've tried it.

Many thanks again for your hard work.

Thanks for the quick reply,
I've just updated and tried V2.2080...it connects ok after adding the harmony hub...

Code: Select all

Sat Oct 25 14:22:26 2014 Harmony Hub: Worker thread started...
Sat Oct 25 14:22:29 2014 Harmony Hub: Authentication succesfull
But I don't see any harmony activities in my devices....is there anything else I need to do to make the activities show up?
Sorry if this is a stupid question.

Not a stupid question. I only tested if the previous bugs are fixed. This is a new issue. I can confirm the 'add new devices' code is broken in this build. Sorry. It now only works with existing devices. I will look at this ASAP

It's logging activity changes when I use my harmony remote...

Code: Select all

Sat Oct 25 14:50:16 2014 Harmony Hub is changing activity
Sat Oct 25 14:50:22 2014 Harmony Hub finished changing activity
when I tried the previous version, it added the devices instantly, not sure if that helps.

Just compiled svn 2084 for my Synology and can confirm errors are not filling the logs anymore. Activity changes are visible ofcourse. Nice work

Just tried 2086, and the issues the same for me...I added the harmony in hardware, it connects ok in the log, yet no devices are added.
It'd be interesting to know if others are experiencing the same on the pi.
I appreciate the assistance your giving, many thanks.

I think the terms used by Domoticz and Harmony are inconsistant and cause confusion.
From what I can gather, the Domoticz hardware only supports Harmony activities, not Harmony Devices. What's confusing is the Harmony activities are added to Domoticz as Devices!!

I hope that make sense. Might have to read it as slowly as I had to write it :)

Running Domoticz on Pi3 with RFXtrx433e. LWRF power sockets and dimmer switches. Integrated my existing wirefree alarm PIRs and door contacts with domoticz. Geofencing with Pilot. Harmony Hub. Tado for Heating. Now playing with mysensors.

I'm running this on Windows but I do have to reboot the Harmony hub before any new activities appear in the Devices tab if I make changes. Try rebooting your Harmony Hub.

Thanks for the tip, although it made no difference.
I agree with your point about domoticz/harmony activities/devices....it's slightly confusing, however I hope I've grasped the concept that after the harmony authentification has been successful, my harmony activities should be added to my domoticz devices automatically.

Hmmmmm, not working for me either now. Just added a new activity on the Hub but not showing as a device in Domoticz. First time I tried to add new since updating to Windows V2.2044!

Ok, I've just broken mine. I added a new activity to my Harmony that wasn't showing up in Domoticz so, I uninstalled and reinstalled the hardware and now everything has gone :(. The activity changes are showing in the log but no activities are showing in my devices. I didn't think anything had changed to break this hardware in the windows version. I'm really annoyed with myself!

@CodeItAway - I've now got a similar problem on Windows. All worked fine but then I added an activity to my hub which didn't show up in my Devices in Domoticz. Stupidly, I thought this was a slight bug and thought I'd uninstall the old hardware and devices from Domoticz and just add them all again. It worked like that before. However, having done that I'm now connecting to the hub no problem but none of my activities are being added to my Domoticz devices :(. I even rolled back to the previous version of Domoticz with no luck. Any advice would be gravely appreciated. I loved this feature in Domoticz.

Seems like this one has Codeitaway stumped...I'm gonna give up on this for now.

I can only think that Harmony have changed something which has broken it. I'm so gutted. The ability to control my IR devices with Domoticz was awsome for me :(

Don't think so as the old method still works.
