Hi MAtesz

I call linknx like this:

/usr/bin/linknx [B]-c/etc/linknx/linknx.xml[/B] -p /var/run/linknx.pid -d -w

It depends where your linknx.xml is situated.

You can try to find it:

whereis linknx

[Bodo]

Or maybe you must simply create one.

nano /where/it/should/be/linknx.xml

creates an empty one. Save with ctr o, exit with ctr x

[matesz]

Thanks your answers, but it not work.
The linknx is on the /usr/local/bin/ , and the linknx.xml is alredy.

When i run simply linknx command then it works but the knxweb give a error:
Objectcontroller: object ID not found.
But the object is in the linknx.xml file.


I have not got any idea.

[matesz]

When I run simply linknx command i give a message:
"No config file use default"
Ok but what is the default?

[Bodo]

... and the linknx.xml is alredy.

Hi

then use the existing linknx.xml. You maybe have to use the whole path.
Beginning with /
Like I told you:

/usr/bin/linknx [COLOR=Red][B]-c/xxx/xxx/linknx.xml[/B][/COLOR]

not

[URL="http://redaktion.knx-user-forum.de/lexikon/linknx/"]linknx[/URL] --config/[B][COLOR=Red]=[/COLOR][/B]linknx.xml

[matesz]

So.
My linknx file is on: /usr/local/bin/linknx
My config file is on: /eibknx/linknx.xml

My command :/usr/local/bin/linknx -c/eibknx/linknx.xml

My ERROR:

matesz@diofa1:/$ /usr/local/bin/linknx -c/eibknx/linknx.xml
1314075554 ERROR main : Unable to load config: Couldn't load /eibknx/linknx.xml <ticpp.cpp@784>
Unable to load config: Success


The .xml file is the original linknx.xml .

[Bodo]

Hi

chmod 655 /eibknx/linknx.xml
chown ...

makes it usable and maybe the user is not with privileges?

[B][COLOR=Red]sudo[/COLOR][/B] /usr/local/bin/linknx -c/eibknx/linknx.xml

you could lok at privileges with

ls -al

[Bodo]

The .xml file is the original linknx.xml .

Hi

please post the file

linknx.xml:

Interestingly your pasted file loads without errors with my linknx. The error you post normally means a syntax error in the XML file. As the default file doesn't match with your environment anyway just start with a minium file like this

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
  <objects>
  </objects>
  <rules>
  </rules>
  <services>
    <xmlserver type="inet" port="1038"/>
    <knxconnection url="ip:192.168.1.20"/>
    <persistence type="file" path="/var/lib/linknx/persist"/>
  </services>
  <logging level="INFO"/>
</config>

Adjust the IP to your eibd and it should load fine. If it doesn't you have some other problem as Bodo pointed out.

linknx.xml:

My browser didn't like the

activ￿e</object> <object id="intrusion" init="off">Intrusion d�tect�e</object>

UTF8 char's. Try to avoid special characters.

Hey Guys!

It's work ! Thank you very much. It's solved.

I use the following linknx.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
<objects>
<object id="kitchen" gad="1/2/0">kitchen</object>

</objects>
<rules>
</rules>
<services>
<xmlserver type="inet" port="1028"/>
<knxconnection url="ip:127.0.0.1"/>
<persistence type="file" path="/var/lib/linknx/persist"/>
</services>
<logging level="INFO"/>
</config>


And the following command:

/usr/local/bin/linknx -c/usr/local/bin/linknx.xml

Everything works perfectly now.
I say thank you for the help.

Thank you Bodo
Thank you Tru
