Can't reach the web interface after installation

Post by sem305 »

Hey everybody,

I can't reach the web interface of my Domoticz. I have installed ''raspberry pi os lite'' on my RPI 3 and via a SSH connection with my pc via PUTTY.
I followed the easy installation on domoticz.com but and followed al the installation steps. At the end i'll get the notification that i can connect to my domoticz server via 192.168.0.111:8080 but when i try, i'll get the following message in my internet browser: This site is not reachingable.

Please can anybody help me out? I have a static ip on 192.168.0.111 with my mac adress so that is not the problem...

Hi.
Do the following check:
from the shell, as root, type

ps ax |grep domoticz |grep -v grep
to verify that domoticz is working

if you'll get no output, domoticz did not start.
In this case, modify /etc/init.d/domoticz*
enabling logging:

DAEMON_ARGS="$DAEMON_ARGS -log /var/log/domoticz.log"
DAEMON_ARGS="$DAEMON_ARGS -loglevel normal,status,error"

and restart domoticz with
/etc/init.d/domoticz* restart & tail -f /var/log/domoticz.log

in this way you'll restart domoticz and check log to see what error caused the crash.
Regards.

that RPi seems to be the same address as your mac. is that a typo?

to check if domoticz runs ok, do (on the RPi)

cd /home/pi/domoticz
./domoticz

and observe the output for errors.
if no errors, try to access the web page again.

post back the results and we'll take it from there.

Don't make it confusing.
He states that he has a PC and refers to a mac address!

Hi,
I'm new here and found this (specific) topic and forum after installing/compiling Domoticz on my Raspberry Pi.

I followd the steps from this wiki https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Build_Dom ... rom_source
But I didn't mangage to start Domticz. probably I started the compiling command from without a wrong folder. (because I find Domoticz in the folder ~/open-zwave-read-only/dev-domoticz) and not just in my home folder. My Pi is on 192.168.178.31 but I cannot rech it nor it looks like Domticz is running

I tried al the commands above and also changed the folder of domticz to ~/open-zwave-read-only/dev-domoticz in /etc/init.d/domoticz. but it wouldn't start.

This is what I got in my terminal:
pi@raspberrypi:~/open-zwave-read-only/dev-domoticz $ sudo /etc/init.d/domoticz* restart & tail -f /var/log/domoticz.log
[1] 26661
tail: cannot open '/var/log/domoticz.log' for reading: No such file or directory
tail: no files remaining

For sure it is somting stupid but I cannot find the mistake. Can you guys help me out?

Regards, Lieven

Most simple would be to do the compiling again but now follow the instructions to the letter :-)
Domoticz running on Udoo X86 (on Ubuntu)
Devices/plugins: ZigbeeforDomoticz (with Xiaomi, Ikea, Tuya devices), Nefit Easy, Midea Airco, Omnik Solar, Goodwe Solar
