Help needed installing zwavejs2mqtt

Configuration
1

Hello everyone,

I’m starting my home automation setup and I need help installing zwavejs2mqtt.
At first, I want to control a roller shutter (Bubendorff 4-wire) with Gladys.

Gladys is currently installed on an SSD and is running on a Raspberry Pi 3 B+.
I’m using an Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5 for Z-Wave communication.
I have a QUBINO ZMNHCD1 micro-module; I saw @VonOx’s tutorial about it and I’m stuck on installing zwavejs2mqtt.

I couldn’t find zwavejs2mqtt on GitHub, so I installed zwavejs-ui (GitHub - zwave-js/zwave-js-ui: Full featured Z-Wave Control Panel UI and MQTT gateway. Built using Nodejs, and Vue/Vuetify) with a docker-compose command and a docker-compose.yml file.

The installation went well and zwavejs was also configured correctly (I can see the Aeotec stick and the Qubino module in the zwavejs graphical interface).

The problem is that when I reboot the Raspberry Pi, it doesn’t come back up (SSH connection and ping fail).
It only comes back up if the Aeotec stick is unplugged and if I power it off and then power it on again.

Note that I’m not very comfortable with Linux.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,

Yes the name has changed — it’s now Z-Wave JS UI.

If you can open the graphical interface and see your key and the module then I think it’s installed correctly.
I don’t have the solution but after a quick Google search I saw quite a few people having problems with this key.

Hi,

My problem is solved.

I reinstalled Gladys on an SD card instead of the SSD.

I think my Raspberry Pi’s power supply is insufficient (3A) to use an SSD and the Aeotec Z-Wave stick.

Thanks in any case to @_Will_71 for replying.
