Problems with Zigbee2mqtt (self.homeassistant)

submitted 1 year ago by nogooduser to c/homeassistant

10 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I run HA in Docker and I have set up Mosquito MQTT and Zigbee2mqtt in other containers.

I can add Zigbee devices into Zigbee2mqtt and they automatically turn up in the MQTT integration. The problem is that they usually don’t have the control entities in HA. This means that I can’t activate switches by clicking on them in HA.

Everything else seems to work. I can turn the devices on and off in Zigbee2mqtt and I can do the same from Node Red (running in another container) with the Zigbee2mqtt plugin.

Has anyone else seen this problem?

I found something in GitHub about it but the comments said that it was fixed in the next version but I have a later version than that but it’s still not working.

How is your zigbee2mqtt running? Via HA or standalone?

You can click elements from NodeRed, so it means the HA connection to node-red is broken it sounds.

Try updating HA nodes inside nodeRed.
Make sure that your mqtt server has no errors
