Locked Sticky ADMIN: >>HOW TO ASK YOUR QUESTION<< - A general reminder for everyone #admin
====================== HOW to ask your question ====================== One of the most common questions about JMRI is "How do I get it to work?". This isn't really a problem with JMRI itself in most cases, but there are HUGE numbers of possible configurations for DCC systems, and Windows, Linux, and Mac computers out there. Just asking "How do I get it to work" is NOT going to get you any useful help. When asking ANY question, you should >>>utilize a meaningful subject line<<< that indicates the problem and include the following information in the body of the message: + If JMRI has started copy and paste the System Console into the body. (its under help on the start screen) + Has JMRI worked before on this computer? + JMRI version + Previous version if you just upgraded + Java version + Previous version if you just upgraded + Computer make and model + if you have just upgraded, from which version + Any other DCC devices in use + Specific details of your difficulty including error messages if any, or what you would like to do with JMRI. Decoder Programming, Signals, Automation, etc. Depending on the nature of the problem, you may need to supply even more information, but this is the absolute required for anyone to give you accurate answers. Signing you post helps keep the group friendly and personable! Your moderators and trouble shooters.

WiThrottle server "readLine from device failed" messages 4
WiThrottle server seems to blast my system console with "readLine from device ... failed" messages. The WiThrottle and EngineDriver apps seem to work fine despite these messages. What do these messages mean and is there any way to fix this? I see this on two different installations. Thanks. -- Tim D. Childs tim.d.childs@... Lansing Model Railroad Club - lmrc.org

Inline LogixNG add block item different on two systems #logixng
Windows 11 or Linux Mint 21.1 JMRI 5.10 I take my "panel file" home from the museum to work on it locally. I run JMRI on Linux Mint at home. I was working on creating an inline LogixNG whose purpose was to set the value field of a lot of blocks on the layout having been triggered by an icon touch on a Panel Editor panel. That all worked fine at home. I created a few of the add/item/block steps in a conditionalNG. Then I copied the file to a USB drive and ambled down to the museum to complete the task on site. But much to my astonishment and grumpiness the add/item/block window is different at the museum than at home. The rightmost block in that window is missing. This is where one gets to type in the value that is to be applied to the value field of the block. It's the same whether I'm adding a new line or editing an existing one that I had created at home. I don't get it. Why is this different? JMRI version is the same at both locations. George

Old Mac Died; Need to get access to Dropbox JMRI files on new Mac mini. 2 #dropbox #mac-os
I’ve been using JMRI for over a decade but my last computer died and I need to use JMRI on a new Mac mini with the latest software. JMRI 5.10 JAVA 21.0.6+7-LTS ‘Temurin’ Mac mini Apple M2 Sequoia 15.2 Old Computer: 21” iMac (ancient) with recent update of JMRI but hard drive no longer operative NCE System through NCE USB I’ve been using Dropbox for my files so I know where they are, but I’m stumped about how to reach them — Dropbox 'File Locations' won’t let me look at any destination not on my computer. Also, I had two profiles, one for the test track and one for the layout. I’d like to preserve that.

How to remove block assignments from LE tracks 7
My original project was to combine two LE Panels, the Main railroad panel and the 5 track passenger station panel. Knowing there isn’t a quick way to join them, I proceeded to redraw the 5 track station onto the Main panel. Without realizing that the > Track Options > Automatically Assign Blocks to Tracks was turned on, every piece of track was assigned an AUTOBLK: ##, which I didn’t want nor need. I won’t need block detectors nor signaling. Any signals will be SSL to determine the turnout positions. Now I want to know how to remove block assignments from the newly drawn tracks since, as I see it, nothing can be deleted while they are assigned. I attempted to rename the unwanted blocks to a common name so when I could break the assignments I might only need to delete one large block. What I ended up with was, upon restarting JMRI everything opened properly the Main LE panel, The WiThrottle window, and the JMRI (center of screen) logo. The PanelPro control window did _not_. I didn’t have a way to close the program or make any preference changes. Since I put in so much work, so far, is there a fix to get JMRI to launch completely or is it easier to cut my losses and go back to a previous .xml file. Still how do I remove block assignments properly? I’m stumped. Thanks in advance for reading. John Bauchiero - NCE PH-Pro & PowerCab, RasPi4, DCC-EX - JMRI 5.11.4 - Java 17.0.12

JMRI Profile File Written With Zero Bytes 4
Hopefully this can help others who experience the same problem. This has happened 3 or 4 times in the last 5 years - so not often. When opening JMRI, you get the dreaded unexpected EOF error loading the profile. Sure enough - the profile file is zero bytes. Easy fix - in the active jmri-profile folder there is a backupPanels folder under the railroad name. Simply copy that file back under the railroad folder - rename to whatever the profile file is called in your settings. Hopefully it is recent enough you didn't lose much of anything. The backup interval looks like when the profile is saved. All shutdowns have been nominal. No idea why it happens...Maybe it's an RPI thing, maybe it took to long to write and I did a system shutdown before it was ready? Who knows. The folder structure is below. For more info - Specs: RPI 5 bookworm with all latest updates running JMRI 5.10. The log file is below - it shows whenever this happens there is a compare failure. Guess that writes out 0 bytes and keeps on truckin...

Double light mast only changes diverging 2
I created/uploaded a small test case to show the issue I'm having with my layout. /g/jmriusers/files/ProblemsBeingWorkedOn/sml_test_5_multiple_turnouts.xml I may be confused but I'd expect both of these incoming masts to display aspect similarly. The top row works as expected based on which route is clear based on exiting turnout. The bottom row for diverging works differently.

Signal Controller Board Suggestions 8
I have JMRI LogicX working through a tree/ladder of turnout to set 'a road in a yard' to the 'Main' from a touch sensor on a Panel. Due to space, I am using two x three-way turnouts meaning I cannot use the turnout motor internal switches to switch leds on the Dward Signals on each road. On the screen, I have a 'sensor' light next to the Road when it is clear to the Main. All good so far and works fine. Looking now for an addressable signal controller board to receive a JMRI command to turn a 'dwarf' signal from 'red' to 'green' when the sensor on the panel is selected (when it sets the required road to main). The signal controller will connect to an AUX bus connected to, in this case, a NCE PowerPro Controller. What Signal Controller Boards are you using to take the command to change the LEDs from JMRI? happy to answer any clarifying questions! Thanks Randall

Help understanding Dispatcher/Transit 5
I have a simple 3 train yard connected to another block with several turnouts as below My desire is to have a train leave the yard then run another transit continuously. Since a continuous transit requires first/last section to be the same it seems this requires two transits. I thought I could create a transit to start in BY1 and end in Central then chain to the next transit. My problem is with the leaving yard transit (which is terminate when done for testing). As soon as it allocates the Central section, the mast turns red/red and the train never moves. If I click the mast green the train moves and stops in Central as expected. So, how can I make this to allow move train out automatically after allocation?

Difference Between Compare and Reset 30 #decoderpro
All, Recently developed a problem with one of my older diesels, an N scale Bachmann with Econami factory installled. Def used is ECO-100 Diesel. Sound was fine, loco would not move. On the programming track, I loaded the loco's DecoderPro roster entry file and used the CVs tab to compare all values. No differences. Loco still not moving. Did a Reset. Loco now moves. Rewrote all CVs from the loco's roster entry file. Loco now will again not move. To emphasize, these settings have worked fine for years. Are there some settings somewhere that DecoderPro can not see or change, except by reset? Regards

JMRI and LogicX driving Signals 3 #signals
Wanting to drive a Signal based on a decision 'to set green / red' from a LogicX - already set a sensor 'light' on the screen and switch turnouts,, looking for guidance to then set a dwarf signal. unable to use turnout motor switches as there are two x three-way turnouts used. If there is a write up or Youtube I would appreciate in pointer, all i have seen so far are track sensor based and switched from a single turnout motor. Happy to answer any questions... thanks Randall

Experimental "Flatpak" distribution of JMRI 17
A user has been interested in possibly distributing JMRI as a “FlatPak” for Linux. I don’t know much about that method, but apparently the distribution file also includes the JRE, so it’s (at least in theory) easier to install. As an experiment, you can find a 5.10 distribution in this form at https://github.com/JMRI/JMRI/releases/download/v5.10/jmri.5.10.flatpak For more on this, see JMRI/JMRI Issue 11658: https://github.com/JMRI/JMRI/issues/11658 Is anybody familiar enough with this distribution method to be able to try it? Is this something that we should do on an ongoing basis? Bob — Bob Jacobsen rgj1927@...

Reorienting a turnout without completely deleting it. 6 #layouteditor
I am not sure what happened, but I have one turnout that ended up in the wrong orientation. I have the turnout and block detection and turnout position sensors all working, so I am trying to figure out if there is a way to just reorient the turnout without completely deleting it and then setting everything up again. I was looking for a way to "disconnect" the turnout, like you can do in Anyrail, but was able to figure out how to make that work. Any simple solutions or do I just need to delete and then re-add a new turnout in the correct orientation? -- Heath @ Human[c]ity http://www.humancity.org http://www.riversidetransfer.nyc http://www.manhattanmodelers.com

PanelPro New Feature - Panel Swipe Navigation on Tablet 11
Team, I have about 70 control panels and I navigate them using buttons with links. While this works fine, I can see my panel count only growing with time. The thought occurred to me of the possibilty of adding a swipe function to navigate from Panel to Panel from a web view (tablet). For example, if you could assign a Panel to a SWIPE GROUP then swiping right or left would take you to the next panel in the group. Does this sound like it would be useful to others? -- Many thanks in advance!
