I am trying to get ZHA working with a Conbee2. I’m running HA on Ubuntu Server on a NUC. After playing around installing the Deconz software in Ubuntu I was then able to add devices to ZHA through the HA config GUI. Not sure if installing Deconz in Ubuntu was required but prior to that I was not …

Ok, strange because I’m pretty sure it should not be running. How did you check if it’s running?

[image] sjee: How did you check if it’s running? Ubuntu GUI, task manager

No idea… but if if worked when Deconz was running, did you try to start it?

I can run Deconz in Ubuntu and it sees the Conbee2 and two devices I had added in HA, but since HA failed to load ZHA at boot, I would then have to restart HA again to test. Oddly, after starting Deconz in Ubuntu, this time HA notified me of an available integration, this didn’t happen before despi…

I think two things get mixed up now because HA discovered Deconz and you want to use ZHA. You can not use them both at the same time.

yeah… I guess I could try using deconz instead of ZHA, but ZHA seemed to be better in terms of compatible devices when I was reading forum posts

I’m using Deconz ( this docker image ) not installed on the OS. Never tried ZHA as all my devices are supported (Hue, Ikea, Xiaomi). I think the main difference is Deconz is closed source so you depend on Dresden elektronik to add new devices. An advantage (for me) of using Deconz is that I use Decon…

I’ll give it a try since a HA restart just now didn’t help, got the same error. EDIT: installed the Deconz add-on and integration but it doesn’t detect the already linked devices I had added back with the ZHA integration, nor can it detect them if I try to add them again via deconz. I think i need…

[image] sparkydave: got the same error If using Deconz, you should not have ZHA integration active. The error is from ZHA, you can not have both active at the same time. You are trying 3 things at the same time, Deconz on Ubuntu, ZHA and the Deconz addon. Focus on one and uninstall the other…

No, I’m not trying 3 things at once. I only had one installed / configured at a time and restarted HA in-between each attempt. The thing is, I have 2 devices which are now linked to the Conbee2 and can be seen if I start deCONZ in Ubuntu, but deCONZ in HA will not see or detect them

Don’t get me wrong, just trying to help you figure out the problem but you have posted some conflicting information:

Back to the current issue. Anything in the log? Did you try this
