Fresh installation didn't work correctly

Post by luxus »

Hello,
I had razberry for a long time (i had the first one as well)
Now i use the green larger one (https://cdn.competec.ch/images/5/1/5197 ... 3.xxl3.jpg)
For the last years i used it with openz-wave and wanna give z-way a try again.
I flashed a sd card with buster lite(on a rpi3), updated it and used the one liner from the z-way download page.
I notice that no z-way-server script got copied into /etc/
The server started.. and i was able to inclusions devices ..
when i tried firmware update, site didn't show up.
i changed the time zone and it wanna restart the server.

The server never restarted and didn't start not after a reboot as well.
I notice
There is no /etc/init.d/z-way-server
Running the installation again didn't help

Code: Select all

wget -q -O - https://storage.z-wave.me/RaspbianInstall | sudo bash
Checking the log it ended after the restart for the change if timezone

Code: Select all

Maybe you should look into the /opt folder instead of /etc. This script did not work for me either and on buster I had to run an apt-get install after adding the zwave.me repo to apt to get it to work.
