Anyone tried MyController.org to setup locally? If yes kindly share your experiences ;)

@jkandasa very nice work! As for my experience, I had a bit of trouble getting it started. Somehow, I was under the impression that double-clicking start.bat would automatically start the Java app. It was later that I realized I then need to point my browser to localhost:8443 and log in. Your WIKI is well written, but I somehow missed that step. BTW, I'm using the Ethernet gateway and editing settings was a breeze.
Possible bug to report- Sensors with an ID of 0 (zero) are not auto-detected. I have four nodes with sensor ID's of 0 that I know are sending data but they do not show up on Sensors page or on Action Board.

@d-smes thank you to gave a try with MyController.org. Could you please see your log file is there any error? logs/mycontroller.log

@jkandasa Yep, error log full of the same sets of errors. Example of one error pair:
2015-09-16 11:41:55,150 WARN [Thread-3] [org.mycontroller.standalone.db.dao.SensorDaoImpl:52] Sensor:[org.mycontroller.standalone.db.tables.Sensor@e7f65f[id=<null>,sensorId=0,type=<null>,messageType=38,name=<null>,updateTime=<null>,status=<null>,lastValue=<null>,unit=<null>,node=org.mycontroller.standalone.db.tables.Node@18dbb32[id=4,name=<null>,version=<null>,updateTime=<null>,type=<null>,mySensorsVersion=<null>,batteryLevel=<null>,eraseEEPROM=<null>,firmware=<null>]]], Sensser Id should be in the range of 1~254 2015-09-16 11:41:55,150 ERROR [Thread-3] [org.mycontroller.standalone.mysensors.MessageMonitorThread:68] RawMessage[NodeId:4,ChildSensorId:0,MessageType:1,Ack:0,SubType:38,PayLoad:4.825] throws exception while processing!, java.lang.NullPointerException: null at org.mycontroller.standalone.mysensors.ProcessRawMessage.recordData(ProcessRawMessage.java:480) ~[mycontroller-standalone-0.0.2-alpha2-single.jar:na] at org.mycontroller.standalone.mysensors.ProcessRawMessage.setSubMessageTypeSelector(ProcessRawMessage.java:449) ~[mycontroller-standalone-0.0.2-alpha2-single.jar:na] at org.mycontroller.standalone.mysensors.ProcessRawMessage.messageTypeSelector(ProcessRawMessage.java:91) ~[mycontroller-standalone-0.0.2-alpha2-single.jar:na] at org.mycontroller.standalone.mysensors.MessageMonitorThread.processRawMessage(MessageMonitorThread.java:60) [mycontroller-standalone-0.0.2-alpha2-single.jar:na] at org.mycontroller.standalone.mysensors.MessageMonitorThread.run(MessageMonitorThread.java:82) [mycontroller-standalone-0.0.2-alpha2-single.jar:na] at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) [na:1.8.0_60]The clue appears to be "Sensser Id should be in the range of 1~254"
Nodes with multiple sensors show e.g. sensors 1- 11 but not sensor 0.

@d-smes My bad it was a mistake, I understand wrongly like, we will not have sensor id 0, should have only from 1~254, now corrected and will allowed 0~254 id,
you have to stop your mycontroller server and replace lib/mycontroller-standalone-0.0.2-alpha2-single.jar with the fix http://www.filedropper.com/mycontroller-standalone-002-alpha2-single

MyController.org Released 0.0.2-alpha3 :thumbsup:

@diggs I was looking into doing the same thing. There are ways to duplicate a serial port using utilities like socat that should work. I was having issues with one side of the redirect disconnecting when there was no data to read. I was thinking of just writing up a quick python utility that would have the features I wanted. ser2net would work well, but it only redirects the port to the network, it doesn't do local redirection.

@ericvdb Thank you for your interest with MyController.org. I have created a request for battery percentage. Kindly update your thoughts on this https://github.com/mycontroller-org/mycontroller/issues/14
How often node sends battery percentage?
-
Thank you - This is what I have been looking for. I was getting ready to write my own which I did not have time for. It is simple displays the data that is needed and easy to debug. The other controllers I tried I spent more time debugging because of the bloat. I can not focus on my sensor development.

Nice ! Very clean GUI !
I installed this controller on RPI with serial gateway and it works like a charm with two TEMP sensors.
It will be good if you can use the RPI GPIO to connect directly to NRF24 RF module instead on adding the serial gateway ( see http://iot-playground.com ..)
I wish you good luck with this project.
-
Actually, you can add the NRF24 directly to the Raspberry and use it as a gateway at the same time:

Yes, I have plan to implement NRF24l01 directly. I have to learn more about how mysensors gateway is working. Also planing to implement RPI GPIO port access from MyController.org directly
I wish you good luck with this project.
Thank you! @davidbd

Thank you @GertSanders let me have a look. As MyController.org is designed with pure Java language I have to implement with some wrapper or with the help of pi4j module
