Troubleshooting Zigbee Network Post OpenHAB Update

After updating to OpenHAB 3.1, users have reported issues with their Zigbee network, particularly with InfluxDB connections. Here are some steps to diagnose and resolve the problem:

  1. Check Port Configuration: Ensure that InfluxDB is configured to use the correct port. The default port is 8086, but if it’s been changed, verify this in the configuration files.

  2. Identify Port Conflicts: Use sudo netstat -lptn to check if another service is using the port. Temporarily stop conflicting services to test.

  3. Network Binding: Confirm that InfluxDB is set to listen on the correct interface (localhost or all interfaces) in its configuration.

  4. Reinstallation: If issues persist, manually remove InfluxDB files and configurations before reinstalling to ensure a clean setup.

  5. Review Logs: Check OpenHAB logs for detailed error messages that could indicate authentication or database issues.

If these steps don’t resolve the issue, consider reaching out to the OpenHAB or InfluxDB support communities for further assistance.
