[bticino] binding installation fails on an NPE

[dev-mansonthomas]

Expected Behavior

Install openhab 2.4.0 stable, install BTICINO binding, click inbox, click the + button and find the BTICINO binding

Current Behavior

Install openhab 2.4.0 stable, install BTICINO binding, click inbox, click the + button, and I can't find the BTICINO binding.

when checking the openhab.log, I can see the following NPE :

I also have a lot of exception like this :

Context

New installation, want to connect my F454 web server from BTICION with openhab

Your Environment

openhab 2.4.0, docker image, runing on Synology DS1813+ with docker package. installed with the following command :

docker run \
        --name openhab \
        --net=host \
        --tty \
        -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
        -v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro \
        -v /volume1/docker/openhab/addons:/openhab/addons \
        -v /volume1/docker/openhab/conf:/openhab/conf \
        -v /volume1/docker/openhab/userdata:/openhab/userdata \
        -d \
        --restart=always \
		-e "EXTRA_JAVA_OPTS=-Duser.timezone=Europe/Paris" \
        openhab/openhab:2.4.0

I'm connected remotely to my Synology Nas, using ssh tunnels to access the web UI. I've managed to have the pioneer AV Binding working, and the Philips Hue (although configuration not finished, I need to press the button to get the generated username).

Please add your bticino.cfg file and item definitions.

@9037568 : I just click install on the BTICINO binding, so I guess I have the default one.

bticino.txt

I would expect to have a UI wizard in PaperUI to fill this configuration. Should I edit the file right now and restart openhab ?

[9037568]

That's what I'd recommend.
