Description:
I'm getting this error:
Error: Invalid Number Value: '%' for device idx: '%'
Any ideas?

[teo1966]

I don't know if it's related to this problem. The only devices with RFXMeter do show up in utility, but the Lacrosse TX3 and Depressure and the rest don't show up in temperature or switches.

I'm getting this error:
Error: Invalid Number Value: '%' for device idx: '%'

In what context? Is there more in the log around this error?

In menu Setup - Users do you have devices assigned to the user (admin?) you are logging into Domoticz? If admin then remove all those shared devices. See also the Note on this subject in the wiki:
https://wiki.domoticz.com/User_Management#Set_Devices
Note: It is advised not to set selected devices for an admin user as the rest of the devices will become invisible.

i also get the error: Error: Invalid Number sValue: '%' for device idx: '%'
i have no selected devices signed to the admin account.
i get the error when i call: http://domoticzIP:port/json.htm?type=command&param=getdevices&filter=all&used=true

I only get this error if a plugin creates a P1 device and no value is uploaded to the device yet and then the device is queried for example via the user interface. Immediately after the first value update by the plugin the error disappears and everything functions normally. So it is a small bug in the Domoticz plugin framework.
Is this the same as your case? Do tou have any P1 devices from a plugin that are still without a value?

I do not have any problem with my p1 sensor.
I only have that error when i ask domoticz for a complete json device list.

You can try different filters to narrow down the problem.

I have tried to shut off hardware things like mqtt broker, mqtt gateway, RFXCOM, internal running dzVents scripts, external python scripts, still getting the error randomly.
Has anyone still any ideas to narrow it down?
When I try to debug sql domoticz crashes.
And sometimes when I connect to the webgui domoticz reports having no sensors connected. And when I select another tab they re appear.

Have you checked the actual domoticz.db with SQLite Express to see if there are any devices in the devicestatus table that have a "wrong" value in the sValue column?

Did you try narrowing it down as suggested by adjusting the filter in your statement ?
http://domoticzIP:port/json.htm?type=command&param=getdevices&filter=all&used=true

According to the wiki you can use the following filters
light
weather
temp
utility
wind
rain
uv
baro
zwavealarms

I have checkt it according your list and the following generates this error : utility and zwavealarms.
The lists are to long to present here.
how to narrow it down now?

[willemd]

Check the values of the devices in those sublists, either by individual json queries or by using sql.

I have found the 2 conflicting sensors.
one was a ghost sensor that was not in use anymore, and they other had bad data in it.
when this was deleted and restored the error dus not appear anymore.
thanks for the great help
