lost serial gateway after un plug power Rpi
-
is it a genuine arduino nano? I thought they where all using atmega32u4 for usb interface nowadays

Hi.
I had the same issue with (original) FTDI chipset ARDUINO.
I use FTDI chipset because that enables me to FIX the USB to stick at for example USB20 and not to a different port. Comes in handy after a reboot. Domoticz will continue to work.However ... I had the same issue you described.
I replaced ARDUINO with new one for testing with CH340.
Gateway was recognized again.
The failing FTDI Arduino that was nog recognized works perfectly well with my Windows 10 PC however not with Raspi.Keep in mind the CH340 has no serial number. I was unable to fix at a certain USB position.
From your logs I can confirm I had the same issue.
try: dmesg | grep "ÜSB"It will not show you a USB1 or USBx device.
I bought a new FTDI arduino and said bye bye to the problem. All is working again.

No problem.
I had problems with original FTDI arduino.
For testing i changed to 340 arduino that worked.Than ordered new FTDI arduino.. And it worked again.
Do you have a spare ARDUINO that you can flash with your gateway software??If your gateway is not assigned a /dev/ttyUSBx address It will not work.

@sincze
sorry again , i am beginner :)
first i do this Instructions (https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/PersistentUSBDevices) and dont work , after this , @tbowmo told me :
lsusb-> provide the output
unplug / plug the usb device
once more in your terminal
lsusb
-> provide output
also i do :
dmesg-> provide the output
unplug / plug the usb device
so now after unplug/plug , my gateway dont detect and dont work

after you have powered on your raspberry, you log in
then at the command prompt you type:
lsusb
-> provide the output
unplug / plug the usb device
once more in your terminal
lsusb
-> provide outputthe same for dmesg. In a terminal type "dmesg" hit return, and provide the output, both before you unplug a device that is not working, and after you have done it, and it is working.
@tbowmo
now i run this
lsusb-> provide the output
unplug / plug the usb device
once more in your terminal

but after unplug power . there is my problem yet

@Reza just to be sure: unplug power you mean:
Unplug the power cord from raspberry right?
Not unplug and replug FTDI device?@sincze said:

Not unplug and replug FTDI device?my serial gateway is always plug and connect. i mean unplug power of raspberry.
Suppose i use solar panel and battery for home and in cloudy day . power's home is off... so raspberry will be turn off...(or other reason for power off...) -
from the initial logs, after powerup, there is no FT232 listed in your lsusb listing, then you unplug and plug it again, and THEN the FT232 is present..
This IS not a bug in mysensors, as it's an HW chip (FT232) that your linux doesn't see before it's unplugged / plugged, it smells of a hardware issue with your nano. Now @sincze mentioned to you that he have had the same issues, and he cured it by exchanging the arduino, maybe it's worth a shot?
@awi also linked to a document, that describes how to make USB devices persistent in the naming (this can happen once in a while, that a USB device enumerates as a different device number.. That is, /dev/ttyUSB1 instead of /dev/ttyUSB0).

I have the same problem, i posted a question at the Domoticz Forum :
Not reconnecting serial porttGreetz Peer

Somehow I think it's more related to the linux kernel than it's a mysensors or Domticz related issue
I would start to check which linux kernel you are using with uname -a and then start to search from this
Maybe it could also be USB power related? Try to use a better USB power supply to your RPI

Why not connect the gateway to one of the onboard serial ports through the GPIO header? I have an Orange Pi which has a GPIO header that is pin compatible with the Raspberry Pi and I ran my gateway from there with no problems. I used pins 6, 8 and 10 which for me was /dev/ttyS3:
The trick in doing this with Domoticz is to create a synlink. The reason for this is that Domoticz looks for a ttyUSBxxx device, so with the symlink you are basically tricking Domoticz into thinking that the onboard serial port is USB. In my case I created a symlink for ttyS3 to ttyUSB30 like this:sudo ln -s /dev/ttyS3 /dev/ttyUSB30This way you avoid having the problem of USB devices not being detected on boot.

Thank's for the answers to this problem.
They didn't work for me, but i think i solved mine.
Stop monitoring the serial port for data from a terminal session.
See my post at Domoticz forum.
