Oh FFS, now I cant include an Aeotec Smart Switch 6 as it throws a security error (cant send network key) every time I try. It works afterwards but sits there showing:
Z-Wave device 363 ERROR: Failed to setup security. Please exclude this device from your system, and then include again…Z-Wave device 363 ERROR: Failed to setup security. Please exclude this device from your system, and then include again…
I’ve even tried updating the FW on the SS6 to the latest version. Not, happy!
EDIT: that’s odd, now it’s working fine and the error has gone …
EDIT 2: and just tried a second SS6 with older firmware and same story. not impressed!
PS, and all this is after blowing away my Plus via factory reset and restoring a known good config!
my Neo Coolcam door/window sensors (supported in 7.30) do not report battery level anymore since upgrading to this 7.30. I am using Vera Edge. Could this be fixed in next version?
I am running firmware 1.7.4453 was this version deployed sometime ago? The reason I ask is that my Vera plus unit has started doing weird things and nothing has changed from my input, my Vera plus was also attempting to download plugins that are marked to not auto update and Netatmo app is failing to start also the blue status bar is stating downloading luup apps failed try again in 10 mins. I did notice earlier today that the community Vera site was also having issues and would not load when I tested from 2seperate internet connections
It seems that I am not the only one experiencing apps attempting to auto update when marked not too auto update (and failing in a constant loop), any idea what might be causing this?
I did not upgrade to the 7.0.30 version. Now, when I try to add a new device, in the middle of adding a new device, I’m redirected to the firmware upgrade screen where there is no upgrade available. I can’t add a new device due to this as it happens within 15 seconds. Is there a way to stop the system from redirecting to the firmware upgrade screen for no good reason?
I have a Vera Plus running 7.0.29 (1.7.4453) and have noticed a tendency for UI7 to go to the firmware upgrade screen since the upgrade to 7.0.30 for the plus was pulled in November 2019. It particularly seems to be triggered by down a tab/window refresh (I tend to use Microsoft Edge for local access to my Vera Plus). That having been said it has not stopped me from adding new devices but I make sure that I sue the [Back] button with UI7 rather than refreshing the tab/window unless I don’t mind taken a diversion via the firmware upgrade screen. I am hoping the problem will go away when a stable new version of the firmware is available for the Vera Plus.
This is painful and in order to prevent this in future firmware, I would suggest to create a new post in the bugs/request section, to eliminate the forced forwarding to the new firmware page. I think this is rather new.
Now to alleviate your problem temporarily, I could go the deep end and have you edit a file in the vera. Run this in the test luup code screen:
@Sorin, this is a very annoying and useless new feature of the webserver… It was not as aggressively prompting us to upgrade before. I don’t think it should ever be doing that. A user who wants to upgrade his unit will go to the firmware screen. You should not need to forward the user to it… ever.
Maybe the elegant way would be to have a flag to be set upon first notification for the user to decide whether they want to upgrade and if not, whether to be notified later or not at all… “skip this version”. I am finding this forced forwarding to the firmware page completely overdone.
