Sunset of Java Admin Console is Premature

Theme toggle works although some text stays white when going to light mode.

ETA: I see you mentioned there are still issues.

Yes that is the issue in the current build, most should e addressed in the next release.

I just went to the eisy ui insteon page. It says no plm connected, but of course there is, and it is working according to the java console (and because my insteon stuff is working). I clicked to turn on insteon support (which I guess means that this enables management of Insteon devices from the eisy ui), it says it will need to reboot, I say Apply, it immediately replies "error, no api found".

Also, how do we change the dark mode on eisy ui to something else. I don't find this dark mode to be very easy on the eyes.

I had to reboot my polisy once more for it to detect PLM. ZWave was also not loading but after a full reboot it is all working now.

So... Yea, I realize that "end of support" doesn't mean "end of use", but something tells me that they're going to be making changes that will eventually break the Admin Console.

The Java console is just a client and does really nothing itself. They are using eisy-ui to communicate much the same way... They would have to deliberately change how IoX functions and I don't think they would do that. What may happen though is new things will not be supported in Java... I don't have a good example since I cannot predict the future what a new thing may be but here goes... say a new matter standard comes out for support of a new device type (eg. kitty litterboxes LOL)... UD adds that standard into IoX Matter and updates eisy-ui to display correctly. Java console would not understand what that is so would probably not display the nodes correctly or not at all.

It sounds to me like anyone worried about eisy ui not supporting their system should keep and old computer handy with java on it and just never update it. Park it next to your isy994i or polisy (if you choose not to ssh upgrade it) and keep it off the internet. Or keep a bootable image of your current computer and boot from that when you need the old java to work.

I am 90% dependent on Network Resources so I guess I need to hold off for a bit yet.

But I think eisy is doing fine, it looks like the eisy ui is the only thing not seeing the plm. The java console shows plm connected, and in fact, it is connected. Eisy is able to send/receive instoen commands . . . my lights are all working.

Does reboot correct the issue? If not please open a ticket.

Are you using the beta build

I am using whatever version shows up when one updates packages. I believe it shows IoX version 6.1.1

Today's announcements require beta build: Also light mode is not officially supported until the next version so Alt + t to get back to dark mode
