So… Did a bit of googling and decided to try running the java command line to start tthe server and got an error msg about the certificates I’d generated following the tutorial.
I removed the certificates from the server.properties file after experimenting with full paths- and the server loaded and ran as expected.
Hi distans,
Removing the call to the security certificates from the server.properties file solved the problem. I think the newer versions of local server have some security built in.
Its been running solidly for a couple of weeks now!
Great tutorial on how to get the local Blynk server started! However, I am having a trouble where I can’t seem to start the server nor being able to detect the java version that is running on the RPi Zero. I have tried:
The newer Java Versions didn´t run on raspi zero w because of older Arm Architecture. You have to install Raspbian Jessie or Jessie Lite and use Java8. Then you need to install Blynk for Java8.
