OK, using the .local domain suffix does allow me to resolve the URL without needing to use a hosts file entry. :-)
My Serial Number is 000000008fedacd0
I have only tried downloading, not uploading the config file - since it was all run together without line breaks, it makes it quite hard to figure out where one line ends and the next starts... I will make some changes and try to upload it shortly & see what happens...
If it is of any use, FYI Windows notepad says the encoding of the config file is UTF-8
The formatting with line breaks etc. is correct if I open the downloaded config file in a proper word processor (MS Word, or Windows Wordpad), but of course I wouldn\'t normally want to edit a plain-text config file & save it with one of those apps, since they invariably change \"stuff\" and break the file...
I\'ll try a couple of things & try an upload & post back more details shortly.
Cheers
Paul G.

1 more question if I may... in the config file:
\"# flags to be exposed (seperated by ,) - Example below exposes 1 flag
# flags = 1\"
could be taken to mean that this is the total number of flags exposed, starting from 1, going up to the number specified - i.e. \"flags = 128\" would be flags 1 through 128 inclusive... - since that\'s a change from how the other items are specified... it\'s not 100% unambiguous from reading the comment text...
If the approach is the same for all items, i.e. individual items need to be listed out, this could make for some long-winded edit sessions! - I use a lot of my 255 flags and counters, and the ones I use are spread out through the entire 1-255 range, not all bunched together contiguously (I use a scheme where a flag or counter number is deterministic based on the group address of the CBUS device it is mapped to).
Could there perhaps be an easier way to list out the various Comfort devices to expose? - allow something like: \"Flags = 1-72, 88-137,142,214-223,251\" for example? - or, since you already gather the CCLX file as well, could this be taken from there by defaulting to all flags & counters that are referred to in any responses? - maybe with the option of overriding the default selection in the config file if further fine control is needed...
Cheers

Hi Matt. I have uploaded a modified config file, and my CCLX file, each with share tickbox enabled.
I didn\'t see any problems uploading, but I don\'t know if there\'s any validation as part of the upload, or if that only comes when the service starts and reads it in...

Hi Paul
I have received your configuration files and will try them now; may I ask - have you started the service with the [start] button? Once both files are uploaded it should display a status of Online or Offline depending on whether it is running?
Thanks,
Matt

OK, some progression.
I found it through the IP address directly.
Was\'nt sure of the upgrade process so I guess ive done something wrong. Initially I did\'nt update any of the ST elements, that may have upset it. I have now updated all ST elements.
I have uploaded the Config file, basically copying my previous configuration where applicable. I have also uploaded alarm.cclx.I have hit the start button on the service status page and all at that end looked good.
I then went to discover within the app it shows no new modules, which I guess is correct. I have also refreshed the Comfort bridge app.
All things show as OFFLINE though.
Thanks
David

Hi Paul
One other comment - I would highly recommend starting small - maybe pick a few flags rather than the very large number you have chosen. To be honest I haven\'t exposed that many to SmartThings and I would like to do some performance and memory testing on the SmartThings hub to see how it handles it.
I\'ll do some testing now from a Pi perspective and let you know if I see any issues.
Thanks,
Matt

Hi David
I can see your system has started and appears to be running ok - thanks for sharing your config files.
To be honest, and I know it\'s a pain, but ideally I would remove all the old SmartThings devices and Smart App and start from scratch.
Before you go ahead and do that you can try a refresh from the Bridge device which may bump them all back to life as it attempts to renew subscriptions from scratch.
Thanks,
Matt

I have already tried refreshing the bridge numerous times.
When you say delete all devices, there are over 60! Do I have to go into each on the app and individually delete. Do I also delete the bridge,etc. Delete the smartapp and start again?I try removing in the Zone UPNP Manger and get An Unexpected Error - we had this before if you recall. I do have a constant spinning circle next to Discovery which may be the problem. Although as phone turns off every minute or so, this may be confusing it....
Apologies or the rather basic query.

Hi David
Yes, i\'m sorry but I think it may be required - I don\'t expect this to be the case every time, but as this is a significant change I think it will be required. I know it\'s a pain (and believe me I feel it too - I have had to do it numerous times during development).
Let me know how you get on,
Thanks,
Matt
