    I am seeing the same issue with my Ethernet gateway. I downloaded the new 1.4, pulled the Ethernet gateway code from the site and uploaded it to my Nano. It complies just fine, but debug shows the following:
    0;0;3;0;14;Gateway startup complete.

      @RyanAHolland Did you update your sensors too?

        I am having a similar problem. U15 GUI has the same "Lua Startup Failure" message and Vera says "Choose the Serial Port". However, everything is working fine ... Vera is communicating to the serial port.

        I've been using this code from the very start (v1.2 days). I first saw this problem after upgrading to v1.4 from 1.4beta. I was able to fix it though by recreating the gateway device and reconfiguring the serial port in U15.

        This morning I loaded "EventWatcher" mios plugin and now seeing the problem again. However, this time I cannot clear the error - even after recreating the gateway device and serial port. But everything is working fine - meaning the serial gw is working.

        Not sure what else to try to clear or fix the error messages?

        Thanks,
        Joe

          Hi,

          I am trying to get my Veralite working with Arduino and nrf24l01+ Rf Transceiver but it doesnt work for some reason.

          I have uploaded all the plugin files on my Veralite and added a new device, but my device shows an error mesage saying "Lua Startup Failure". When I click on start it gives me another error message saying "Device Not Ready".

          I have my arduino connected to the RF receiver and have uploaded the SerialGateway sketch to it.

          On top of my screen it says : "MySensors plugin : Choose the Serial Port", but when I go to choose the serial port my device doesnt appear there. I have reloded several times and reconnected my arduino to my Veralite via usb but no luck.

          Any suggestions?

          Thanks!!

          I have the same (almost) issue as @rafael.brasilia.

          Installed the MySensors device with files downloaded today (18/9-14) according to the instructions. When pushing "Reload" after creating the device i had not connected the Gateway to the USB yet. Got the error in the picture below. I then connected the gateway with exactly the same result. Then rebooted and got the same result again.

          Please note! I am using a not supported gateway - the Arduino Pro Mini (the Uno is still on a boat somewhere between here and China :-)), but the issue doesn't seem to be related to the gateway, rather the creation of the device.

          What is my newbee mistake? Except for using the wrong hardware ;-)

            Pro Mini and Uno won't be recognized by Vera. You must use Arduino Nano as instructed on the documentation site.

                I'm having same problem with my clone NANO.

                I can't get serial adaptor to show up in VERA. I have a powered hub with my VERAlite. I have a usb to serial already for my caddx alarm and usb flash drive for my logs. I have even removed the hub and tried only the nano to the vera. Powered down for a bit and restart. Never can get serial to show up. I can program the NANO and rear the data get a code and startup command.

                Think its my clone? I have an extra UNO but haven't tried it as people said it needed to be a NANO hooked to VERA.

                  I bought a Nano today at Electro:Kit Malmö cuz I just couldn't wait for the boat from China :-)... but the the error remains the same! Reboot, re-download, rewiring, ... I cannot get the MySensors plugin to work.

                  BTW, I use codebender and know the software loads OK.

                  Any suggestions?

                        @Micke What did you do to make you Serial gateway show up in Vera? I have tried everything you can imagine but my Vera wont recognize it.

                          @rafael.brasilia I followed the instructions in this link.

                          Can you give some more information on how far you got, eg:

                          • Did you test to upload the blink example to the Nano? Did it work?
                          • Was the upload of the Gateway to the Nano successful?
                          • Any problems downloading files from Git.hub, uploading these files to Vera?
                          • Is the creation successful in the Vera?

                            Yes I did test my Nano with the blink upload and worked fine. I uploaded all the files to Vera with no problem and also uploaded the sketch into my Nano successfully.

                            I can even see my Gateway communicating with one of my sensors in the debugger, So I think everything is fine.
                            The only problem is when I connect my Gateway to my Vera and go to Serial Port Configuration, there is nothing there. I tried reloding the Luup Engine several times and restarting my Vera, but still no luck.

                            Thanks

                              @rafael.brasilia Sorry, I don't know what is wrong. I got problems myself: I can see my Gateway in the Vera... but cannot get it to communicate with the sensors - I am also new to this. Hopefully one of the experienced guys on this site can help you!

                                PROBLEM SOLVED

                                So after trying a thousand different things I decided to bite the bulled and bought a Genuine Gravitec Arduino Nano, loaded the Serial Gateway Sketch into it and BOOM! Worked on the first try. My Vera recognized it as soon as I plugged it in.

                                For all you guys having problems with Serial Gateway I recommend buying a Gravitec Nano to use as a Gateway. The clones work just fine for the sensors, but not for the Gateway.

                                This is the one I bought:

                                  Holly cow 35 bucks... Well at least you are up and running. It's strange really, because I had no problems with the Nano from the store vendor.

                                    PROBLEM SOLVED

                                    So after trying a thousand different things I decided to bite the bulled and bought a Genuine Gravitec Arduino Nano, loaded the Serial Gateway Sketch into it and BOOM! Worked on the first try. My Vera recognized it as soon as I plugged it in.

                                    For all you guys having problems with Serial Gateway I recommend buying a Gravitec Nano to use as a Gateway. The clones work just fine for the sensors, but not for the Gateway.

                                    This is the one I bought:

                                      Holly cow 35 bucks... Well at least you are up and running. It's strange really, because I had no problems with the Nano from the store vendor.

                                      Yeah it was really expensive. But I had tried with 3 different types of clones and none of them worked. You were lucky!

                                          I had this problem today ( "Lua Startup Failure" / MySensors plugin:Choose Serial Port) after running the serial gateway for a few weeks with no problems.

                                          I checked the "Serial Port Configuration" under Apps>Develop Apps and the baud was mysteriously set at 9600. I reset it to 115200 and reloaded Vera and everything reset fine. Is there any known reason why the baud setting would change on its own? Conflict with another plugin, perhaps datamine)?
