Phoscon App always ask for new password and bridge name after reboot / DeConz restart

Phoscon App General Support
1

Good morning everyone.

I’ve installed the Openhabian spin using rpi_imager and tried installing deconz from the openhabian-conf which wasn’t possible. So i followed the Phoscon Installation Guide for the Raspbee which works as expected.
I can login to the web frontend of the phoscon app ( hhtp://my_ip:8081 ) and can set a password and bridge name.
I can also connect one! sensor in the app ( if i connect more, the last connected will be in the list and all others are missing ).

I experience this behaviour ( asking for bridge name and a password, flush of the sensor list ) always after reboot / DeConz restart.
I think it’s a problem with some system rights and i tried to find a solution for this problem but unfortunatly i didn’t find one.

Do someone has any suggestions?
Thanks

Seems to be some issue where it can’t save anything in the zll.db file.

@de_employees seems we see this more often nowadays.

Fyi:

I have tried all this before about a year ago but had to put it aside bc off other projects.
But now i’m back on the topic with a fresh setup and it happens again.

Ok.
Problem solved.

It seems to be a problem resulting from the possibility to add an administrator user to the initial openhabian configuration.
It seems that if you do so the deCONZ folder containing the zll.db under /var/lib/openhabian/persistence is created with “user:openhabian” ownership and group rights set to r+x.
Changing the ownership to “openhabian:openhabian” or the group rights to rwx solves the problem.

Thanks for the hint :slight_smile: .
