HA can't access Zwave

I have installed Rasbian and ran the AIO installer.
I was able to get access to my Aeon Z-wave stick using open zwave control panel.

Using a RPi3.

I have added the following to my configuration.yaml file:

zwave:
  usb_path: /dev/ttyAMA0
  config_path: /srv/homeassistant/homeassistant_venv/lib/python3.4/site-packages/libopenzwave-0.3.2-py3.4-linux-armv71.egg/config/

The error in the dev-info says:

 17-02-27 22:21:46 WARNING (Dummy-15) [openzwave] Z-Wave Notification DriverFailed : {'nodeId': 255, 'notificationType': 'DriverFailed', 'homeId': 0}

I made sure that user homeassistant has permissions to the configuration.yaml file.

For some reason I cannot get zwave item to show up in the HA front end.

Your USB path is configured wrong, I thin. You’ve got /dev/ttyAMA0, but it (likely) is /dev/ttyACM0

You can test this by using ls /dev/ttyACM* on the pi’s command line.

Facepalm… You may be right I will double check it when I get home.I might have manual changed it since I was trying to figure out the preformatted text thing.

Thank you, I should have seen that. I spent a bunch of time making sure the config path was right. Not sure how I ham fisted the wrong USB port in there.
