Zigate error with plugin version pre-4.1

[geertvercamer]

Hi,

I can't get the plugin to work.
Domoticz is running on W10
I keep getting these errors:

Anything in the Conf folder ?

yes,
folder Certified (containing more folders of brands)
DeviceConf.txt

[pipiche]

yes,
folder Certified (containing more folders of brands)
DeviceConf.txt

I suspect that the plugin is not able to create a file which should be

Domoticz-Zigate/Conf/PluginConf-xx.json

Where xx is the hardwareId of the plugin

Is domoticz running with admin privileges ? What could prevent file creation ?

[geertvercamer]

running as a service with local system account. This is admin, right?

[pipiche]

From the source code, the issue is Opening in creation mode a file named Domoticz-Zigate/Conf/PluginConf-xx.json

I'm not a Windows guy, so maybe the windows people could help here, but the message in the logs are clear

Code: Select all

2020-04-01 20:47:17.733 Error: (Zigate) 'onStart' failed 'PermissionError'.

[geertvercamer]

there's no way to have the config files written anywhere else?

[pipiche]

Conf is a must from the plugin code. Eventually you might create a file in this folder

Here after is an exemple of Conf/PluginConf-05.json

So for your , you need to check what is the HardwareID (this is available in Domoticz Hardware. The Id of the Zigate Hardware, padded with 0)

Code: Select all

{
  "filename": "/var/lib/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Zigate/Conf/PluginConf-05.json",
  "homedirectory": "/var/lib/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Zigate/",
  "pluginConfig": "/var/lib/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Zigate/Conf/",
  "pluginData": "/var/lib/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Zigate/Data/",
  "pluginHome": "/var/lib/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Zigate/",
  "pluginLogs": "/var/lib/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Zigate/Logs/",
  "pluginOTAFirmware": "/var/lib/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Zigate/OTAFirmware/",
  "pluginReports": "/var/lib/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Zigate/Reports/",
  "pluginWWW": "/var/lib/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Zigate/www/"
}

Well, this helped A LOT!
Thanks.

I first tried to set all these to 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Domoticz\\plugins\\Domoticz-Zigate\\' but still got an error on writing Zigate.json.
There may be a / too much in Modeles/database.py on line 272.

Code: Select all

        json_filename = self.pluginconf.pluginConf['pluginData'] + "/Zigate.json" 

I removed it but eventually also had to modify so the data and logs are written to a folder out of '\Program Files\....'

Thanks a million.

[pipiche]

So you mean that if we remove the / in database.py line 272, it fixes the problem ?
Would you mind to attach the PluginConf-xx.json, so I'll put it in the distribution as a ref for Windows users

[geertvercamer]

sorry for the delay.

I first tried to map all the entries in PluginConf-xx.json to "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Domoticz\\plugins\\Domoticz-Zigate\\"
It took me a few steps further but got the error that it couldn't access c:\program files...\Domoticz-Zigate\/Zigate.json.
Mind the extra /
I tracked it to line 272 where the setting is used "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Domoticz\\plugins\\Domoticz-Zigate\\Data\\" + "/Zigate.json"

In your example, all the settings have end in '/' (need converting to \\ in Windows), so on line 272 you would get:
"/var/lib/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Zigate/Data/" + "/Zigate.json"
=>
"/var/lib/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Zigate/Data//Zigate.json"

Maybe that doesn't throw an error in Linux, I don't know, I'd say there's no need for the '/' on line 272. Definitely not on Windows

Finally I had to move the pluginData and pluginLogs to another place as there were still problems with write rights.

PluginConf-xx.json:

Code: Select all

{
  "filename": "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Domoticz\\plugins\\Domoticz-Zigate\\Conf\\PluginConf-19.json",
  "homedirectory": "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Domoticz\\plugins\\Domoticz-Zigate\\",
  "pluginConfig": "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Domoticz\\plugins\\Domoticz-Zigate\\Conf\\",
  "pluginData": "D:\\DomoticzExtra\\Zigate\\Data\\",
  "pluginHome": "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Domoticz\\plugins\\Domoticz-Zigate\\",
  "pluginLogs": "D:\\DomoticzExtra\\Zigate\\Logs\\",
  "pluginOTAFirmware": "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Domoticz\\plugins\\Domoticz-Zigate\\OTAFirmware\\",
  "pluginReports": "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Domoticz\\plugins\\Domoticz-Zigate\\Reports\\",
  "pluginWWW": "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Domoticz\\plugins\\Domoticz-Zigate\\www\\"
}

Make sure to run Domoticz with Administrator rights
