Can't connect to radio on raspPi with latest stable 2.1.1 build, but works with 2.2.beta but with beta mqtt gateway very unstable...

Hi, just wondering if I simple do something wrong.

I try to setup a mysensors gateway on raspPi. What I did:

git clone https://github.com/mysensors/MySensors.git --branch master

./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 --my-rf24-ce-pin=22 --my-rf24-cs-pin=24 --my-rf24-irq-pin=15

Build seems ok, but when I tried to start the gw, it seems radio can not be initialized. I got

i@pi:~/msg_stable/MySensors $ sudo bin/mysgw -d
mysgw: Starting gateway...
mysgw: Protocol version - 2.1.1
mysgw: MCO:BGN:INIT GW,CP=RNNG--Q,VER=2.1.1
mysgw: TSM:INIT
mysgw: TSF:WUR:MS=0
mysgw: !TSM:INIT:TSP FAIL
mysgw: TSM:FAIL:CNT=1
mysgw: TSM:FAIL:PDT

When I use same kind of install with the development branch 2.2.beta it all starts up, however the gateway seems very unstable (not surprisingly, as its dev build), it cashes a lot.

So - how to get the stable 2.1.1 connecting to the radio (NRF24L01+ )? I guess the gateway on 2.1.1 is stable...

Regards
Joerg

@alterfritz any update? Release 2.1.1 does not work for. Current dev branch 2.2 works.

Any hint?

I am experiencing the same behavior. 2.1.1. radio is not detected. 2.2.0 beta detected ok.

I also have problems with NRF24L01+ on both 2.1.1 and 2.2.0 Beta

I have installed a fresh RPI with all new libraries and trying to make a RPI Serial GW

In 2.1.1 it doesn't start at all but in 2.2.0 it starts but in the log I constantly receive the following in the Domoticz log where I have added the GW

2017-10-09 19:25:12.306 MySensors: Gateway Version: 2.2.0-beta
2017-10-09 19:25:12.306 Error: Serial Port closed!... Error: End of file
2017-10-09 19:25:13.306 MySensors: retrying in 30 seconds...

After a while I get the following in the console

mysgw: TSF:MSG:READ,0-0-0,s=0,c=3,t=2,pt=0,l=11,sg=0:Get Version
mysgw: !TSF:MSG:LEN,0!=18 

The above points at something wrong with the radio connection

I have tried 3 different radios but still no luck

So I guess it all boils down to that there is some problems with these libraries and the NRF24L01

Any guesses?

Same by me - combination of Rapberry 3 + mosquitto + OpenHab2. 2.1.1. doesn't start at all (TSM:INIT:TSP FAIL), 2.2.0 beta starts without troubles but after a few minutes the communication is lost (!TSF:MSG:LEN,0!=32). Have capacitors on the node and gateway.
