I have had to shut down my whole system

[Chuck]

James,

Yes, I was able to get things sorted out. But in the process I lost about six or seven of my Z wave devices. Not sure how that happened, but it looks like I will have to reinstall them later on today.

I had to restart my HA machine several times and the Veralite once. 

I have some really huge logs because of the error messages. At 6000per minute, Just an estimate, it takes up a lot of room, and also my processor was pretty busy keeping up.

In every case where I saw it it stopped after I restarted the program. I’ve never seen it on my actual house server or heard that any one else has suffered, i assumed it was something remarkably stupid I was doing or freaking it out while starting and stopping dozens of instances while developing but perhaps not then.

I actually just fixed that for the maintenance release I’m going to do this week so that if it does happen to anybody else it will at least restart the interface properly for you and clear the error.
