New Java error

[gorstj]

My HA-Bridge has stopped working today.
Running on ubuntu 18.04.02
I ahve not changed, rebooted or updated anything for a long time.

I understand that there was an issue with Java 9..... I am on Java 11.0.02.... I am not sure when this got updated..... however I think javax.xml.bind was removed from Java at version 11???

Any thoughts?
Thanks

Error is:

Hi,

I just removed the reference to javax.xml.bind in my start up file.

It was:
ExecStart=/usr/bin/java -jar --add-modules java.xml.bind -Dsecurity.key=?????????????????? -Dconfig.file=/opt/habridge/data/habridge.config /opt/habridge/ha-bridge-5.2.2RC2.jar

Now:
ExecStart=/usr/bin/java -jar -Dsecurity.key=????????????????? -Dconfig.file=/opt/habridge/data/habridge.config /opt/habridge/ha-bridge-5.2.2RC2.jar

HA-Bridge now starts, I haven't run it for long enough to see if there will we any other issues,

Doing the above leads to ha-bridge service starting, the web interface is reachable however none of the 'test on' or 'test off' switches work.

Lots of these in the log:

04-19-2019 09:58:12.631	ERROR		spark.http.matching.GeneralError

It would seem java.xml.bind is necessary for ha-bridge...... it has been removed in java 11 I think?

[Twit123]

You are correct, some of my items work like Home Assistant calls but calls to my RM Pro error out.

I'm think bwssystems will have to compile a new jar file and explicitly add the module as it has been removed in Java 11.

I compiled a new jar file with this added to the pom.xml

        <dependency>
            <groupId>javax.xml.bind</groupId>
            <artifactId>jaxb-api</artifactId>
            <version>2.3.1</version>
        </dependency>

I also have to up the mavin.shade.plugin to 3.2.1 as it would not compile

				<artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId>
				<version>3.2.1</version>

I've only just done it but all my test on / test off buttons seem to trigger correctly, I'll test over the weekend and report.

[gorstj]

If it is working well would you mind sharing the binary or sharing the exact changes you made to the source so I can try to compile myself?

Thanks

Hi,

I basically have no idea what I'm doing, I Googled how to compile with Maven which involved installing Maven and Jave SDK. I then changed the pom.xml to the below and compiled:

Compiling myself didn't seem to solve the issue - no http requests seem to work

(I did add the dependency as per your instructions)

[gorstj]

Ok, here is what I have done

Remove openjdk-11
install openjdk-8

It still wasn't working as a service but worked from the command line.

If I removed the following from my startup file it started working.....

-Dconfig.file=/home/pi/ha-bridge/data/habridge.config

All is good here now! I don't understand..... I may try and go back to openjdk-11 to try....

[bwssytems]

For java 9 and later, you need to add a module on the command line. Please see https://github.com/bwssytems/ha-bridge/wiki/HA-Bridge-FAQs#q-ha-bridge-errors-when-running-with-java9

[bwssytems]

I'm removing the need for the JAXB libraries since they are only used for a tiny hex conversion.
