autostart of Domoticz Topic is solved

[Toulon7559]

When searching for info the keyword is important ....

Recently fitted some Raspberry0 with Domoticz, but now need separate start for Domoticz.
Probably somewhere a wrong setting.
Using 'search' on this forum got >6000 hits (which is not really useful) and looking at Wiki no unique solution either.

Obviously (re)start is always possible using

Code: Select all

sudo service domoticz.sh restart

Probably simple, but still question:
what setting or file is required to autostart Domoticz?
a) at hard reset of power supply
b) at soft reset of reboot

Thanks!

I have typed this in, but still Domoticz is not started automatically after the Pi has booted. Any idea?

Does it boot on a restart OK but not on a cold start i.e initial power up ?

[imautohuttraeger]

When the Pi reboots after a power outage, Domoticz will not restart. Also when the power adapter (USB) is initially plugged in Domoticz doesn't start. I always have to start it manually via terminal command:

sudo service domoticz.sh restart

You somehow missed the cold boot issue on the troubleshooting wiki: https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Troublesh ... _cold_boot

Thx very much! Will try that when I will be back home.

Before I have tried the cold boot workaround I have updated Domoticz from the 2023 to the recent 2024 version. Now everything is fine after my Raspberry starts, Domoticz starts, too. Can`t find the fixing of this issue in the changelog. However, I am happy now

Update: Sorry, I was wrong. Auto-restart of Domoticz only works when the Raspi is restarted via shh command. But if the Raspi is disconnected from power supply and boots after reconnection of the USB power supply, it is not working. So the cold boot workaround still has to be enabled.
