[Solved] KNX connection "connection refused"

[Rasmus7700]

SOLVED:
Problem was eibd start script was set as a debian machine - not ubuntu. Changed script -
all worked

Maybe someone could use the information later


Hello Guys.
I've installed the Sh.py from the guide in the wiki on a fresh Ubuntu 14 installation.
I can't get the eibd function to connect to my KNX....

When starting sh.py in -d mode, it says:
ERROR Connections KNX: could not connect to 127.0.0.1:6720 (TCP): [Errno 111] Connection refused -- connection.py:connect:382

When trying to do a groupswrite ip:localhost 0/0/1 1 i get the same error "Open Failed - Connection Refused"

What can be wrong here?

My plugin.cong:

# plugin.conf
[knx]
   class_name = KNX
   class_path = plugins.knx
   host = 127.0.0.1
   port = 6720
#   send_time = 600 # update date/time every 600 seconds, default none
#   time_ga = 1/1/1 # default none
#   date_ga = 1/1/2 # default none
#[ow]

My eidb config:

  GNU nano 2.2.6                   File: /etc/default/eibd                                            

EIB_ARGS="--daemon --Server --Tunnelling --Discovery --GroupCache --listen-tcp"
EIB_ADDR="0.0.1"
EIB_IF="ipt:192.168.50.10"
EIB_UID="rasmus"

But when starting the eibd deamon manually with:

eibd -c -R -S -T -t1023 ipt:192.168.50.7

i get a lot of KNX data

Seems like the eibd deamon isn't running.... When starting it manually i can see following when

ps ax | grep eibd

i get:

 3239 pts/1    S+     0:00 eibd -c -R -S -T -t1023 ipt:192.168.50.10
 3265 pts/0    S+     0:00 grep --color=auto eibd

But when starting with the script defined in etc/init.d/eibd start i only get

  3265 pts/0    S+     0:00 grep --color=auto eibd

When starting /etc/init.d/eibd start:

root@smarthome:/etc/init.d# eibd start
No listen-address given

Maybe you could outline the actual differences between the given Ubuntu and the final solving debian scripts ...?

Ofcourse
In the /etc/init.d/eibd file following must be choosen:

PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
#Ubuntu: DAEMON=/usr/bin/$NAME
#Debian: DAEMON=/usr/local/bin/$NAME
DAEMON=/usr/local/bin/$NAME PIDFILE=/var/run/$NAME.pid
SCRIPTNAME=/etc/init.d/$NAME

Remember:
#Ubuntu: DAEMON=/usr/bin/$NAME
#Debian: DAEMON=/usr/local/bin/$NAME
