Vera doesnt take settings and duplicates devices, scenes

I’ve slowly gotten my vera system up and working, and largely it works pretty well and everything is reliable. However, I’ve noticed that often when I save settings things dont take and I have to make changes and save multiple times. This even happens when I save after each change and wait for a reload.

Other times, I notice that when I create a scene or a room, it will keep duplicating. When I go to delete them, they just re-appear.

This normal? Seems like something others would have noticed.

No it’s NOT normal.

I don’t know what is causing the issue, but I would try a few things.

  1. Power cycle the Vera.
  2. Clear your browser cache and start a new session with Vera.
  3. Connect to Vera via a wired connection, I don’t know if you are accessing it via a laptop or other wireless connection.
  4. Try a different browser, perhaps the one you are using has changed the way it handles javascript.

Other things that might cause such erratic behavior mighty be a very large network or high polling frequency that might be putting Vera under high load. Check the log http://your-vera-IP-Address/cgi-bin/cmh/log.sh?Device=LuaUPnP

I had regulary similar issue when using Chrome, now with Firefox, I only got once a scene created twice.
Any way, clear cache may solve a lot of issue with UI5.

Good luck.

Thanks for the replys.

I am using Chrome, and its been happening for months with many power cycles. I’ll try internet explorer and see how it goes.

Its very annoying but I can usually get it to work with enough effort. If anyone else has been using Chrome have they seen this? I can try dumping my cache but I suspect its the browser.

You’ll have more issues with Internet Explorer! Stay away from it.

Still occurs with internet explorer, duplicating rooms again and it takes several attempts to get changed settings to take hold.

I’ll try using a wired connection, but it seems unlikely that would be it.

had this too , now im using firefox for it and it seems to work better but somehow things get mixed up. there is a error in the UI5 also that is being adressed in the next firmware.
what helped me was deleting the last scene i made and reboot the vera.
