Latest OS Upgrade but port 8083 is not open / listening

[harveybabes]

Hi
My topic "Upgrade Options without breaking Anything!" has the same question so I hope it does not contradict the forum's rules however I am now left with a system which is not working.

I have carefully migrated the files as suggested :
""The easiest would be to make a fresh install of Raspberry OS (Bullseye), copy the /opt/z-way-server folder, /etc/zbw and /etc/init.d/zbw_connect and then run the installation command as described on the site. It will upgrade Z-Way keeping your data""

So when the system upgrade was completed I have tried to go to the localIP:8083 without avail.

I have updated the interfaces as per another thread but it did not help:
"sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces"
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.x.x
gateway 192.168.x.x
netmask 255.255.255.0

All I see a white page with writing such as below with unselectable black icons:

{{_t('nav_apps')}}
{{_t('nav_devices')}}
{{_t('customize')}}
{{_t('nav_myaccess')}}
{{_t('management')}}
{{_t('news')}}
{{_t('my_hubs')}}
{{_t('nav_logout')}}

8084 works but without the correct webinf. The port scanners I use are not picking up 8083.

Please could you help me over the finish line ?(!) thanks

Am I right, that you have no web interface in 4.0.2?
If yes, try to downdrade to 4.0.1
I have the same issue and that hepled

Oh, seems to be no. Looks like you need to clear cache
In Chrome open Developers tools (Ctrl+Shift+I), right clict at page refresh button, "Clear caсhe and ~hard reload"

Hey Dan
Thanks for your replay - I can't see that helping the port 8083 issue.
I will need to establish what version is within the package at https://z-wave.me/z-way/download-z-way/ once I have copied this troublesome img back onto an SD card.
I will try installing the 4.0.1 deb to see if it fixes the port issue also.
I'll update this thread.

i ran wget -qO - https://storage.z-wave.me/RaspbianInstall | sudo bash once again and clearedall caches from the browsers I use and all is well.

THANKS

Hi All -

I spoke too soon. I have lost connection after thinking it's best to make an img of the setup and writing that img to the sd card to test it is rebust.

I have down a clean install and followed the same procedure i.e.:
1 - backed up said file and folders
2 - install Bullseye from https://z-wave.me/z-way/download-z-way/
3 - update interfaces config
4 - run wget -qO - https://storage.z-wave.me/RaspbianInstall | sudo bash

now on https://find.z-wave.me/ after clicking the IP address for 'Direct connect to Z-way" it is hanging on "waiting for find.z-wave.me..."

EDIT: I am unable to connect to the UI via the browser using th LAN or WAN IP addresses. Both ports 8083 and 8084 are open. I can connect via SSH

How can it work one moment and then this? If I need to send any log files I would be delighted to!

Any ideas?

TIA

If the port is open and you can't open it, check your firewall settings and that you are in the same network with the Pi.

#### SOLVED ####

After having many failed attempts of trying the following method:
1 - backed up said file and folders
2 - install Bullseye from https://z-wave.me/z-way/download-z-way/
3 - update interfaces config & backed up files
4 - run wget -qO - https://storage.z-wave.me/RaspbianInstall | sudo bash
5 - and trying 3 recent releases using sudo dpkg -i z-way-x.x.x_armhf.deb method
(I know a little about this but am in no way an expert so all was trial and error in the end). I was left with port 8083 closed and only some of my devices visible in the browser UI if it did work randomly. I was ready to give up...

SOLUTION:
1 - install Bullseye img
2 - copy backed up /opt/z-way-server folder, /etc/zbw folder and /etc/init.d/zbw_connect (chown & chgrp) to correct locations
3 - sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.x.x
gateway 192.168.x.x
netmask 255.255.255.0
4 - PKG=z-way-4.0.2_armhf.deb && wget -O /tmp/$PKG https://storage.z-wave.me/z-way-server/$PKG && sudo dpkg -i /tmp/$PKG

If the port is open and you can't open it, check your firewall settings and that you are in the same network with the Pi.

The firewall is set up correctly/working as intended with my previous img of z-way v2.3.7 and sporadically worked on the v4.0.1 update then port 8083 closed(!) - the ins and outs are beyond me but I have found a solution - the system has been running for 19 hours without any problems so I will take that as a win! Thanks for your advice
