Zigbee devices added but don't report

Configuration Zigbee

I am trying to understand the overview I get from Zigbee2MQTTAssistant.
Looking at the overview attached I see a few things I don’t understand:

  1. What are the brigdge/event, bridge/logging and bridge info items mentioned ?
    it says no comonents, is this an issue?

  2. I have two sensors which I have renamed to a logical name while they are online.
    But both show up twice. one says no components and the other has communication. Is this duplicate ? if so, how do I get rid of the duplicates?

What version of Zigbee2mqtt are you using ? Recent versions have a built-in frontend.

Hi, thanks for the feedback
I am not able to access the zigbee2mqtt frontend.
I don’t have a clue how to find the version used. it is running in a docker container, using the following docker-compose script.

I deleted the container and fired the compose script again, but there is no frontend that responds.
All containers (besides HA) are part of the same network and communication between zigbee2mqtt and mqtt is fine.

  • How can I resolve accessing the frontend ?
  • How do I know which version of zigbee2mqtt is used ?
version: '3.8'
services:
  zigbee2mqtt:
    container_name: zigbee2mqtt
    hostname: zigbee2mqtt
    container_name: zigbee2mqtt
    image: koenkk/zigbee2mqtt
    volumes:
      - ./data:/app/data
    ports:
      - "8081:8081"
    devices:
      - /dev/ttyACM0:/dev/ttyACM0
    restart: always

Below the configuration.yaml file of zigbee2mqtt

# Home Assistant integration (MQTT discovery)
homeassistant: false

# allow new devices to join
permit_join: true

# MQTT settings
mqtt:
  # MQTT base topic for zigbee2mqtt MQTT messages
  base_topic: zigbee2mqtt
  # MQTT server URL
  server: 'mqtt://mqtt'
  # MQTT server authentication, uncomment if required:
  # user: my_user
  # password: my_password

# Serial settings
serial:
  # Location of CC2531 USB sniffer
  port: /dev/ttyACM0

I found my issue, I edited the wrong config file. the one in the container instead of the one it is using on the host. thnx.
