External configuration missing

[ericstaal]

I am trying to install zwave-js-ui on a clean rapsberry pi 2.

It is run from docker with

zwave-js-ui:
        container_name: zwave-js-ui
        image: zwavejs/zwave-js-ui:latest
        restart: always
        tty: true
        stop_signal: SIGINT
        environment:
          - SESSION_SECRET=mysupersecretkey
          - ZWAVEJS_EXTERNAL_CONFIG=/usr/src/app/store/.config-db
          # Uncomment if you want logs time and dates to match your timezone instead of UTC
          # Available at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones
          - TZ=Europe/Amsterdam
        networks:
          - default
        devices:
          # Do not use /dev/ttyUSBX serial devices, as those mappings can change over time.
          # Instead, use the /dev/serial/by-id/X serial device for your Z-Wave stick.
          #- '/dev/serial/by-id/insert_stick_reference_here:/dev/zwave'
          - '/dev/ttyUSB-ZStick-5G:/dev/zwave'
        volumes:
          - ./zwave:/usr/src/app/store
        ports:
          - '8091:8091' # port for web interface
          - '3000:3000' # port for Z-Wave JS websocket server
networks:
    default:

There is no .config-db folder in my ./zwave folder.

Logging from zwave-js-ui:

I would expect the configuration to be download or so. What is the cause of this?

That folder is where zwave-js copies it's internal database, it may be that for some reason the copy has been corrupted, try to delete that folder and restart application

Restarting had no effect, neither did recreating the container.

I removed the conplete settings folder, restarted it and now it does work :)
