Except for the mosquitto issue, I don't see a problem that would prevent the z-way-server process from starting automatically on a reboot. If the problem still persists, further troubleshooting by @Poltos may be your best option.
The mosquitto issue has been previously discussed in the forum. The following steps should solve the issue.
1. Verify package repositories are correct - run:
cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/z-wave-me.list
You should see the following:
deb https://repo.mosquitto.org/debian buster main
deb https://repo.z-wave.me/z-way/raspbian buster main
2. If the mosquitto entry is missing, run:
wget http://repo.mosquitto.org/debian/mosquitto-repo.gpg.key
sudo apt-key add mosquitto-repo.gpg.key
sudo apt --fix-broken install
3. Verify mosquitto package has been installed - run:
dpkg-query -l mosquitto
You should see the following:
ii mosquitto 2.0.12-0mosquitto1~buster1 armhf MQTT version 3.1/3.1.1/5.0 compatible message broker
4. If you don't see the mosquitto package installed (it should have been installed automagically using "sudo apt --fix-broken install"), run:
sudo apt install mosquitto
Repeat step 3 to confirm.
Assuming the mosquitto issue has been solved, let's revisit the automatic start-up issue using the following steps.
1. Reboot your Pi. With luck, the z-way-server process will start automatically - run:
sudo reboot
2. Log back onto your Pi after 2 minutes and check to see if the z-way-server process is running. Run:
ps -ef | grep z-way-server
You should see the z-way-server process is running (as user root) and be able to access Z-Way using the web UI.
3. If the z-way-server process is not running, start the z-way server process manually - run:
sudo /etc/init.d/z-way-server start
Verify the z-way-server process is running by repeating step 2. The file /var/log/z-way-server.log should provide detailed information.
Upgrade to Z-Way v3.2.2
Re: Upgrade to Z-Way v3.2.2
Should work. Need remote access to check it
Re: Upgrade to Z-Way v3.2.2
Thanks to seattleneil and PoltoS!!!
Although ZWay was the single application on my RASPI before upgrade to v3.2.2 it has become clear, that there is something wrong with that OS. I think we have spent far enough time to find out the root cause of the issue.
I yesterday initialized a new SD-card, installed Raspbian, and Way v3.2.2.2. Everything is working fine and we might keep it to our imagination to think about the problem which created a not responsive ZWay application.
Since my background is to develop hard- and software for Z-Wave 700 devices, I now will be able to get back to things I really like to do
Thanks again for your help!

Re: Upgrade to Z-Way v3.2.2
Had the same issue.
you need to add libmosquitto to the raspian to make z-way-server work.
I found a way of fixing this under the 3.2.1 upgrade thread
easy fix when you find it.

you find the solution under the tread:

Re: Upgrade to Z-Way v3.2.2
I found the issue. It is a broken reference to libmosquitto. Solution is here: https://forum.z-wave.me/viewtopic.php?p=92009#p92009
