Hi folks,
i have a little ubuntu server where i have all my smarthome things running as docker containers. Accordingly i run homeassitant, zigbee2mqtt, zwavejs2mqtt and esphome as seperate containers. Zigbee and Z-Wave run via USB dongles.
Recently i bought some D1 Minis (Esp8266Mod 12-f) which seem to be “crashing” my server. Without having an esp connected my devicelist looks like this:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Mär 31 19:42 usb-Silicon_Labs_CP2102_USB_to_UART_Bridge_Controller_0001-if00-port0 -> ../../ttyUSB0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Mär 31 19:42 usb-Silicon_Labs_Sonoff_Zigbee_3.0_USB_Dongle_Plus_0001-if00-port0 -> ../../ttyUSB1
after i connect the esp i only have this left:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Mär 31 19:42 usb-0658_0200-if00 -> ../../ttyACM0
This seems to be the espdevice but it “crashes” my other usb devices.
In portainer my zigbee2mqtt container gets listed as exited and i am not able to restart it (Error: Request failed with Statuscode 500). I need to disconnect the esp8266 device and reboot the server for it to work again. I tries this with 3 serperat devices- all with the same issue.
I trieded to connect an nodemcu an i have no issue with that.
Has anyoneone an idea what i could be doing wrong? do i need to set something up?
I am a little clueless on how to proceed…
Help would be much appreciated.
regards,
Markus
Edit: I just found another older D1 mini which produces the same error…
