Hi,
I am attempting to use a relay and a PIR switch to turn on the lights when someone approaches the door.
So far, I got it working fine, and I'm using a simple 'Forward Payload' but I now I am looking for a way to have it trigger only at night.
Ideally, this should be done through the controller, and not on the script level. Being lazy, I have created a reusable snippet for all of my relays, and use it for a number of different applications.

I tried following the instructions on this post in order to create rules that would allow the payload forwarding only between sunset and sunrise time, but am stuck at the javascript portion, as it gives me an error when I try to run the script: "errorMessage": "TypeError: mcApi.utils().getServerLocationSettings is not a function in <eval> at line number 6".

I could probably accomplish my goal in some other way, by using a photovoltaic cell, or modifying the script for this particular relay to request the time from the controller, but I'd really like to be able to create and use a rule on the controller itself.

Perhaps a revision of your step-by-step instruction on how to accomplish this is in order, as I am sure there are plenty people interested in using the sunrise/sunset times for enabling/disabling triggered actions.

PS. am using MySensors 2.1.0 and MyController 0.0.3.Final-SNAPSHOT

No worries... Whenever you get the time.
FYI, I tested with a W5100 MQTT sketch last night and that seems to work fine, so I guess you can eliminate the W5100 as a potential source of the problem. Let me know if I can help in any other way. Cheers.

What version of MySensor firmware are you using?
-- am using 2.0.0 (I also tried 2.1 beta, that gave me other problems)
What is your ethernet gateway IP?
-- 10.0.0.33
What is your MyController IP?
-- 10.0.0.32

gateway (router) is 10.0.0.1. mask is 255.255.255.0

For MyController, am using 0.0.3.FInal

@jkandasa sure can, and thanks for your time.

So, the W5100 lights up and responds to ping. I've also edited Ethernet.h and ethernetConfig.h.
That's all I've done to check the Ethernet side of things. What else should I check?

Once I add the gateway the controller (resouces/gateways), the controller adds just ONE node (resources/nodes). This node changes status to "offline" after some time (anywhere between 5 and 30 minutes). If I delete the node, it gets recreated again on discovery.
No further nodes are automatically added, and the single "gateway node" that appears is suspiciously empty of data (no version, no script name, no library version, no node type).

The error I pasted above seems to be linked to gatewayID=6, which I got rid of by reinstalling the controller (I used the opportunity to upgrade to 0.0.3.Final). That particular error no longer appears in the log, and the new server log is free of errors but I still can't get any new nodes to register automatically or manually.

Sending a RAW message from the controller does reach the nodes, I can see when both nodes receive the messages as I put the following in their sketches.

void receive(const MyMessage &message) {
  Serial.print("=== RECEIVED A MESSAGE === TYPE: "); Serial.println(message.type);
}

This action also registers the nodes and their sensors, but then they stay blank and do not get updated. If this explanation is confusing, I can include a few screenshots of the mycontroller.

I tried swapping the LAN patch cable, I tried using both hard SPI and soft SPI, with and without an SD card, and I also installed the controller on a windows laptop, same results in each case. I unfortunately only have the one W5100 so I can't swap that out (yet).

Do you have any suggestions on how to proceed with the debugging?

Also, once I get this working, I wouldn't mind pitching in to help by translating mycontroller to a few more languages.

including first few lines of server log:

The Gateway giving me trouble is an Arduino UNO + W5100 SHield + Hard SPI...
I also set up two nodes (one with DHT11 and another with Light+Buzzer)

The two nodes work fine with a serial Gateway.
The Ethernet Gateway connects to the controller, creates a node (without any parameters) and just sits there.
I see the Gateway is exchanging messages with the two nodes I set up, but nothing is showing up in the controller.
Automatic NODE_ID also fails, so I have to assign MY_NODE_ID 1 and MY_NODE_ID 2 to the nodes.

Let's see if anyone can help me sort this out...

Looking at the server log file, I see the following:
