[solved] raspberry gateway - installation problems (and more)

[narf]

Hello!
I just tried to set up a raspberry gateway according to this https://www.mysensors.org/build/raspberry .
(on raspberry1). everything went smooth, but somehow it's not working:

pi@MysensorPi:~/MySensors $ ./configure --my-gateway=mqtt --my-controller-ip-address=127.0.0.1 --my-mqtt-publish-topic-prefix=mysensors-out --my-mqtt-subscribe-topic-prefix=mysensors-in --my-mqtt-client-id=mygateway1

pi@MysensorPi:~/MySensors $ sudo ./bin/mysgw

Nov 10 22:35:30 DEBUG TSF:TDI:TSL

so now on i should ask here =)
i used one of these radios (recomendation from @gohan in 2017 :)): https://gearbest.com/transmitters-receivers-module/pp_453011.html and connected it accordingly (except i used 5v pin for VCC)
first of all i don't understand why it's not working when there were just top c&p a few lines?

an then i'm not really sure in general what i need to do. what i WANT to do:
sensors > raspberry pi gateway > openhab controller
mosquitto is running on my openhab installation, so mqtt would be ok. i searched for a while, but i couldn't find anything noob-proved...

Nov 10 22:35:30 DEBUG !TSM:INIT:TSP FAIL

This means the Raspberry Pi is unable to communicate with the radio module. The most common reason is a wiring problem. Could you post a few photos of the wiring (from different angles)? Maybe we can help spot a problem.

If you have more than one nrf24 module, see if switching helps to check if the radio is broken.

[narf]

here's the wiring. i checked 3 times and now i rewired again with another nrf24 module - error remains the same:

@narf I am not familiar with this board but I thought a nrf24l01+ module was supposed to go into the 2x4 female header? Looks to me the reason there is no communication with the radio, is that there is no radio at all.

[narf]

oh boi. had to connect the radio to the board mentioned in the opening post:

and connect the other boards to my raspberry... now it seems to work! unfortunately i can't test it because i'm not able to upload anything to my Sensebender Micro boards. now i'm waiting for my new ftdi programmer :rage:

[mfalkvidd]

@narf nice work. Thanks for reporting back.

[narf]

alright! now with new programmer a was able to upload the "standard" sketch to my sensebender micro and the gateway even gets "something":

is this right? and if so, how can i translate all this stuff? :eye:

ohhhhhhh. this makes sense:

[20:17:18] openhabian@openHABianPi:~$ mosquitto_sub -t mysensors-out/#
22.3
61

cool cool. now i just have to figure out how to define my items on the openhab part!
cheers
