Debugging Zwave

Hi,

I am running current release HA on Raspberry pi, it has been working well for automating HUE lights, awesome project and great documentation!

I’m having trouble now that I am trying to extend it to manage zwave devices, but this is compounded by the fact that I’m just now setting up my first Zwave controller and switches, so I am not sure where the problem is or how best to diagnose it.

I have the Aeon Labs z-stick 2. I went through the installation instructions to build openzwave on the raspberry pi. I also updated my configuration.yaml with the single usb_path entry. At first I had a problem during hass startup, unable to find the openzwave configuration files. It was looking for them in /usr/share/python-openzwave/config, but for some reason (probably to do with how I ran the openzwave script) they were installed in ~/build/python-openwave/openwave/config. To try and work around this, I simply created the directory it was looking for and copied everything from config (including subdirectories) over to it. Now at least I’m not getting any errors in the hass startup log.

When I view the hass starting web page, I do not see my zwave controller. But when I go to the developer tools page, I see zwave/add_node and zwave/remove_node.

I have tried to add my first switch to the zwave network, but I can’t tell if the problem is with the switch, or openzwave, or HA. Any advice on what I may have done wrong, or how best to break this problem down into pieces to start diagnosing?

Thanks!

Never mind, everyone. A cold reboot of the raspberry pi seems to have gotten this working!
