Hi,

Many thanks indeed, but I’ve got the following status after the upgraded to v1.0

# lora-app-server --log-level 5

What would be the problem in my case?
There was no problem with the latest version by “apt update && apt upgrade” yesterday.

Please check your lora-app-server.toml config file :slight_smile:

@brocaar

I have just enabled TLS, I don’t know why it has disabled.

Thank you very much.

@brocaar

I have found that you also changed the MQTT topic from “application/+/node/#” to “application/+/device/#” to be aware of.

7

Yes, as mentioned in the changelog:

As some configuration defaults have been changed (in the MQTT topic node
has been replaced by device)

Therefore I recommend to re-generate the configuration file before upgrading so that the old defaults will be written to the configuration file. Then when installing v1.0.0 the MQTT topics stay the same.

On installing the .deb package, the installation script did prompt that self-signed certificates have been generated, but they were not set automatically in the generated lora-app-server.toml configuration file (clean install). This has been updated :slight_smile: (@SJ_Park this is probably related to your issue)

LoRa App Server v1.0.1

Improvements

  • tls_cert and tls_key are set automatically (again) when installing from .deb file.

Hello, I don’t know if it’s the right post but I noticed something with this version.
When I generated the configuration file for lora-app-server keeping my old configuration:
lora-app-server configfile --config lora-app-server-old.toml > lora-app-server-new.toml, in MQTT integration section I kept the old formalism:

uplink_topic_template=“application/{{ .ApplicationID }}/node/{{ .DevEUI }}/rx”
downlink_topic_template=“application/{{ .ApplicationID }}/node/{{ .DevEUI }}/tx”
join_topic_template=“application/{{ .ApplicationID }}/node/{{ .DevEUI }}/join”
ack_topic_template=“application/{{ .ApplicationID }}/node/{{ .DevEUI }}/ack”
error_topic_template=“application/{{ .ApplicationID }}/node/{{ .DevEUI }}/error”

while if I execute the command to generate a new config file :
lora-app-server configfile > lora-app-server.toml

I loose my old configuration but in MQTT integration section I have got the right formalism:

uplink_topic_template=“application/{{ .ApplicationID }}/device/{{ .DevEUI }}/rx”
downlink_topic_template=“application/{{ .ApplicationID }}/device/{{ .DevEUI }}/tx”
join_topic_template=“application/{{ .ApplicationID }}/device/{{ .DevEUI }}/join”
ack_topic_template=“application/{{ .ApplicationID }}/device/{{ .DevEUI }}/ack”
error_topic_template=“application/{{ .ApplicationID }}/device/{{ .DevEUI }}/error”

Maybe just I need to replace node by device, however the behavior is quite strange because the lora-app-server works with …/node/… as path formalism

I’m using loraserver v1.0 and lora-app-server v1.0.1

I assume that my influxdb integration is ok with this configuration, I have got logs from CLI after show measurements:

Here a part of the payload with the object form (cayenne LPP codec) from my websocket integration:

thank you .

This is expected behavior.

lora-app-server configfile --config lora-app-server-old.toml > lora-app-server-new.toml

This loads lora-app-server-old.toml first, sets these variables and then generates a new configuration file. You want to use this when you want to keep the old topic naming (your config is then out-of-sync with the default values, but that is fine as you can change them at any time).

lora-app-server configfile > lora-app-server.toml

This overwrites the lora-app-server.toml file with a new config file, using the defaults provided by LoRa App Server. As for consistency .../node/... was replaces by .../device/... in the latest version, you will see this changes when creating a new config file.

Hi

My server is still LoRa Server 0.22.0 & LoRa App Server 0.14.x, can I still do upgrade to the new versions or must a reload the new version from scratch?

Thanks

Please check the changelog of LoRa Server and LoRa App Server. It documents how you should perform the upgrade.
