Just the Beta 1.48, the release note about changes in the z-wave backup prompted me to try it out.

@Javi I checked the Z-wave log, it successfully finishes, but as you said it's just the UI isn't being updated.

Thanks Eisy is up to date, 1.48. Tried it again, doesn't seem to finish and restore fails as well. Maybe I should reboot?

@bmercier I tried the z-wave backup function, but it doesn't seem to ever finish. I presume it should complete in a matter of seconds - mine just spins and spins, I am using the UD z-wave dongle. However clicking anywhere on the display clears the Backup popup. It is reproducible, I have not tried a reboot at this point.

Just had to adjust On/Off time for evening lights and thought this information would be useful to have in the EisyUI, like the AC has displayed. It avoids leaving Programs and hunting for it in the EisyUI app then returning. Maybe it's in progress and I missed the forum post. Thanks1

@bmercier I got the backup 500 error after the most recent update yesterday.

Clearing the cache always worked for me.

Have you tried a power reset? I had PG3 migration problems and the power reset worked. A soft reboot didn't help. There may be updates that resolve this issue so make sure you're up to date.

@Javi I didn't know QueryAll wasn't required. Is it handled differently now? Or just not required?

Up to date? Did you refresh packages?

We're all thinking the same way.

@bmercier there still seems to be some interesting things happening to my EisyUI running the latest updates.. Randomly it rebooted this morning while I was attempting to check PG3. 2026-10-18 08:12:49 [error] shutdown: Error stopping plugin 1: timeout of 3000ms exceeded 2026-10-18 08:12:52 [error] shutdown: Error stopping plugin 2: timeout of 3000ms exceeded 2026-10-18 08:12:55 [error] shutdown: Error stopping plugin 3: timeout of 3000ms exceeded 2026-10-18 08:13:00 [error] ioxStartup: IoX is not responding: connect ECONNREFUSED /tmp/ns2isy182652 But it is still Beta I suppose.

Thanks @Javi , I disabled PG3 and did a followup check on EisyUI Services and PG3X is still running. Are there legacy PG3 bits that are still needed requiring the service to continue to run?

My brother has an almost identical setup as me except a much smaller set of devices. I do his Eisyui updates and see the same behavior on his. Note: Plugins are unresponsive after the update and subsequent reboot from the Eisy. I checked services and IOX was not running, so started it. That didn't help so restarted the eisyui service, still nothing. Power reboot fixed everything. Also note, my brother ran into a recent issue that couldn't be fixed so reflash was necessary. So the Eisy should be pretty close to factory except one update. He's a little gun shy about updating to these latest updates. Let me know if you need any information @bmercier

Thanks @bmercier , up dated and everything seems fine Question, after every update I'm left with an error loading group and a reboot doesn't fix. Pulling the power is always required. Is this expected behaviour?

What about plugin store, plugin purchases, etc? If I disable, do I lose access to these items? Thanks!

My Eisy still hosts PG3 on port 3000. I think UD eventually wants everyone to migrate their PG3 to the EisyUI, which I have already done. EisyUI Plugins is still Beta and not fully developed so I find I have to go back to PG3 on port 3000 from time to time to check purchases. store etc. Also my brother couldn't log into Eisy one day very randomly on his Mac. I figured out how to clear the cache for him and that fixed the problem. So there are some weird caching issues.

Was this a typo - eisy.clocal:3000?

Word Hex Shortcut If you have Microsoft Word, you can turn the hex code line feed into the character using a keyboard shortcut: Open Word Type exactly: 2029 Immediately press Alt + X together. The numbers 2029 will transform into the invisible LINE separator. You can then copy and paste it where you need it. The Notifications preview window is still unformatted but UD Mobile displays properly. Anyway for now my notifications are now readable.

Update: Gemini AI stepped me through a way to add a life feed - unicode method.

The strange thing it works, sometimes. The EisyUI notification preview is just one long string.

Hi @Javi , the formatted text with the HTML tags removed in the template in my first picture looks like this in UD Mobile, just like the template preview in EisyUI Notifications. Just one long string of text.

Thanks, I removed the HTML tags and saved as text, it turned into this.

@Javi I'm having exactly the same formatting problem but with the Notification service and UD Mobile Send Message (email migrated notifications). Migrated HTML formatted emails are coming through UD Mobile Notifications with visible line break <br> tags and paragraph break <p> tags. Saved as HTML. Removing the HTML tags runs the all the text into one long string. Saved as Text. Let me know if you need more details. Using Eisyui 1.4.2 Thanks!
