Rule command issue.

[budman1758]

I have a simple rule that fires at sunset and sunrise every day. One of the commands does not work in the rule but works fine in the command line on the tools page.

Code: Select all

 sendtohttp,'http://192.168.1.81:80/win&T=1'

That command turns on and off a WLED instance on another unit. 0 or 1 at the end will turn on or off. Any idea why it works fine from command line but not from a rule? I'm stumped.

Have you tried to use the 'old' format for SendToHTTP?

Code: Select all

SendToHTTP,192.168.1.81,80,/win&T=1

As the new format requires a quite recent release of ESPEasy.

It's also a bit worrying that they don't follow the regular url argument separators, first one should be a '?' and second and next a '&', but it is as documented, so that *should* work

And also, you could try to send it from the Tools page for testing, and see if it is accepted by ESPEasy or not.

Seems the "old" format works fine. Pretty new build this is working on....
I have no idea why I didn't try that....
Works in rules and command line on tools page.

The 'new' format also doesn't work on the command field on the Toolspage?

This one was merged 12 days ago: https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasy/pull/4365
So maybe best to check with a newer build?
For example this one: https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEas ... 3660056475

New format DOES work on the tools page.

Hmm that's strange.
Have you tried this using the latest build I linked ?

Not yet. Will try to in a day or so. Wife has other things in mind for me.....

[budman1758]

OK. Using the action build @TD-er linked.

Code: Select all

sendtohttp,'http://192.168.1.81:80/win&T=1'

This does NOT work from rules. It DOES work from command line in the tools page. Relevant log entry...

Code: Select all

420807: EVENT: Clock#Time=Wed,14:14
420919: ACT : sendtohttp,'http:
420923: SendToHTTP: Invalid port argument: 0 will use: 80
420928: HTTP : SendToHTTP GET... failed HTTP code: -1 connection failed
420936: EVENT: http#=-1

Code: Select all

SendToHTTP,192.168.1.81,80,/win&T=1

This works from the command line on the tools page. It also works from rules.
So basically, the new format does NOT work from rules. At least as far as this particular command. The actual rule I am testing is this.
I just change the time as needed.

Code: Select all

On Clock#Time=all,14:25 Do
  SendToHTTP,192.168.1.81,80,/win&T=1
Endon

OR

Code: Select all

On Clock#Time=all,14:25 Do
sendtohttp,'http://192.168.1.81:80/win&T=1'
Endon

Can you try while removing the ":80" port number from the URL, like this:

Code: Select all

On Clock#Time=all,14:25 Do
sendtohttp,'http://192.168.1.81/win&T=1'
Endon
