Hello, can someone tell me if the plugin for the OW_Server (EDS One Wire Server) is supported in UI 7?

On UI 7 getting error message – OWServer[40] : Startup Lua Failed

It worked fine in UI 5.

Thanks…

Hi,

I’m having the same problem, just bought Vera Edge with UI7.
Did the following steps:

  1. Install json.lua plugin from Apps/Develop apps/Luup files
  2. Created a new device, with settings from: OW-SERVER - EDS One Wire interface plugin
  3. Installed the OW-Server-EDS app

I get error:
OWServer[11] : json.lua library not installed

Has anyone got it working with UI7?

Thankful for all help… :slight_smile:

Hi there,

I currently have 2 EDS OW-Servers running well on UI7. I went to the Wiki Micasaverde site and used these instructions:

[b][i]Upload the files using the “MiOS Developers” button. Click on Luup Files and upload the 5 files for the plugin.

Create a new device with the following parameters -:

DeviceType: urn:cd-jackson-com:device:OWServer:1
Description: One Wire Server
UpnpDevName: D_OWServer.xml
UpnpImplFilename: I_OWServer.xml
IP: Set the IP address of the server
Click “Create Device”. Restart Luup.

The plugin needs the json library. To install this, go to -:

​​http://code.mios.com/trac/mios_genericutils/export/20/json.lua
and download this to the following directory on Vera

/usr/lib/lua[/i][/b]

I think your problem might be that you are trying to upload the json.lua file via Develop Apps. What I did instead was SSH into Vera using an app like Putty, and browsed to the actual “/usr/lib/lua” directory and copied the file manually. I then reloaded Vera and that error went away.

I hope this helps.

I bought an Edge and moved Zwave config only, so need to add the apps and non zwave devices again.

First tried to install the OWserver App, no luck as I remain to get the error “failed to start”

Next removed the OWserver app and devices.
Then added the device manually as per post above.

Now the OWserver device found my (6) sensors, but refused to add the when clicking the add button.

I opened AltUI,

  • In the control panel of the OWServer:
  • Add devices, clicked the add button
    => 6 new OW temp devices created!

It’s not really handy, but in the end it’s working again!

So I’m having the same problem (when I click “add” nothing happens). I confirmed json.lua is in the correct directory, and also tried adding in alt UI and no dice. When I’m on local network, the devices show up, but when clicking add, nothing happens.

I have tried rebooting all devices, clearing browser cache, reloading the app and the Vera firmware, and no change.

Any suggestions are welcome.

As a follow up to my prior post, the upgrade to firmware 1.7.2414 (vera plus) fixed this issue of being unable to add devices. I had to re-copy the json.lua file but I’m really happy to have this back operational.
