Install Eibd/Linknx/knxweb

How to Install (configure and make) EIBD, Linknx and Knxweb on Linux Debian without paquage

In this page the command "sudo" is format have the right of root if your a not connect with the user "root"

in this document we install all on the same "computer"

we have to change "IPKNX" in for exemple "192.168.1.10" it's the IP adresse of the KNX/IP interface if you use one

EIBD

package need for install :

 apt-get install gcc g++ make
 apt-get install liblog4cpp5-dev
 apt-get install libesmtp-dev
 apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
 apt-get install liblua5.1-0-dev
 apt-get install dpkg
 apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev
 apt-get install build-essential file autoconf dh-make debhelper devscripts fakeroot gnupg

PTHSEM : [pthsem_homepage] "pthsem is a fork, with support for semaphores added. It can be installed parallel to a normal pth and provides a compatibilty layer to compile GNU pth programs with pthsem. The header file is called pthsem.h, the configuration programm pthsem-config and the autoconf macro AC_CHECK_PTHSEM. If references to one of these names are changed, pthsem can be used as an replacement of GNU pth. "

$ wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/bcusdk/pthsem_2.0.8.tar.gz

$ tar -xzvf pthsem_2.0.8.tar.gz
$ cd pthsem-2.0.8/ 
$ ./configure 
$ make 
(sudo) $ make install 
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib 
$ cd .. 

EIBD is include into BCUSDK : [BCUSDK_homepage] [An_other_interessting_link]

$ wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/bcusdk/bcusdk_0.0.5.tar.gz
$ tar -xzf bcusdk_0.0.5.tar.gz 
$ cd bcusdk-0.0.5/ 

* For USB and IP Interface
$ ./configure --enable-onlyeibd --enable-eibnetip --enable-eibnetiptunnel --enable-eibnetipserver --enable-usb --enable-ft12

$ make 
$ make install 
$ cd .. 

start EIBD : exemple :

• with IP Interface ( with IP 192.168.1.10 )

$ eibd -d -D -S -T -i ipt:192.168.1.10:3671

• with USB Interface

 usbport=$(findknxusb | /bin/sed -e '1 d' -e 's/device //' | /bin/cut -d':' -f1-2)
 eibd  -d -D -S -T -i usb:$usbport

For testing :

• exemple : send "1" = "on" to the GA 1/1/1 with EIB Datapoint type is 1.001

if you send "0" it's "off"

$ groupswrite ip:127.0.0.1 1/1/1 1

• in "Debug Mode" we can run eibd like this (not in dameon) for more "verbose" informations

$ eibd -t65535 -D -S -T -i ipt:192.168.1.10:3671

Linknx

$ wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/linknx/linknx-0.0.1.30.tar.gz 
$ tar -xzf linknx-0.0.1.30.tar.gz 
$ cd linknx-0.0.1.30/  
$ ./configure --enable-smtp --with-log4cpp --with-lua --with-mysql=/usr/bin/mysql_config
$ make
$ sudo make install

Looking at the XML configuration file (example here)

    * 3.007: dimming (control of dimmer using up/down/stop) (EIS2)
    * 3.008: blinds (control of blinds using close/open/stop)
    * 5.xxx: 8bit unsigned integer (from 0 to 255) (EIS6)
    * 5.001: scaling (from 0 to 100%)
    * 5.003: angle (from 0 to 360°)
    * 6.xxx: 8bit signed integer (EIS14)
    * 7.xxx: 16bit unsigned integer (EIS10)
    * 8.xxx: 16bit signed integer
    * 9.xxx: 16 bit floating point number (EIS5)
    * 10.001: time (EIS3)
    * 11.001: date (EIS4)
    * 12.xxx: 32bit unsigned integer (EIS11)
    * 13.xxx: 32bit signed integer

For start linknx for exemple

$ linknx -d -w --config=/var/lib/linknx/linknx.xml

KnxWeb

We need a web serveur here we use apache2 (we can use lighthttpd if you want) and php5

 apt-get install apache2
 apt-get install php5

• KnxWeb "old version"

cd /var/www/    (change the path according to your configuration)
wget -O knxweb.tar "http://linknx.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/linknx/knxweb/knxweb/?view=tar"
tar xvf knxweb.tar
rm knxweb.tar

• KnxWeb2

Currently, there is no final release of this new version, you have to download the release from the sourceforge repository. It has only been tested on Firefox and is only available in english. You can simply go to http://linknx.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/linknx/knxweb/knxweb2/ and download the tar file :

cd /var/www/    (change the path according to your configuration)
wget -O knxweb2.tar "http://linknx.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/linknx/knxweb/knxweb2/?view=tar"
tar xvf knxweb2.tar
rm knxweb2.tar

Once done, browse to http://x.x.x.x/knxweb2/ (where x.x.x.x is the IP address of your web server) and follow the instructions.
