Gateway not working on VeraLite + UI6 - No Serial Port configuration available
-
Hi,
I built my gw using a nano (bought the one recommended on this site) many months ago. It worked for a while, but then I unplugged it from my Vera Lite (running UI6) as my sensors weren't fully operational yet (had some battery issues).
Now that I have some time, I tried getting the gw to work again, and when I follow the instructions on the page http://www.mysensors.org/controller/vera, I keep seeing the "Lua Startup Failure" error on the device page. When I go to set the serial port, I get the "Not available." message on the "Set Serial Configuration" page in the Apps section.
I SSH into the vera as the remote user to tail some logs (/tmp/log/cmh/LuaUPnP.log) and when I reload Lua, I see the following log entries relevant to the gw device (#37):

Just to make sure my nano is still working, I uploaded the blink sketch, and that worked.
I also tried, as someone suggested in this forum, to use a powered hub (as opposed to plugging the nano directly into the VeraLite - same result.
Anyone had a similar issue and found a way to resolve it? I saw someone else in this forum had better luck with a legit Nano ($$$), I am hoping I don't have to do that ;-)
Thanks in advance!

Im using the serial gateway on u17 and have it working fine. i have the same problem as you when my vera is rebooted or powered off, but found 2 solutions. 1 with the vera on disconnect then reconnect the serial gateway. wait 10seconds refresh the dashboard page. Then go to app/ developer apps/ serial connection. Reset your baud rate to 115200?? Select the mysensors profile. Then reload luup.pls note Sometimes it takes a few retrys. And doesn't always detect serial connection just be persistent. Option 2 when you get it working create a complete vera backup on your phone or pc. restore backup when needed
-
Failing that delete the mysensor gateway. Then reinstall D_Arduino1.xml. Re-add nodes as per usual.

Just read that link above lol. Could of saved me alot of writing on a phone. Good luck

Thansk. I ended up upgrading to the latst UI7 beta. My gateway is now working!!! Let's see how stable it is. ;-)
(UI7 has fixed some of my other issue too)
