## CometVisu client not found or not accessible

The CometVisu add-on was not able to find your local CometVisu-client installation

## Solution

If you already have a local installation of the CometVisu client you can skip step 1.

1. Download the latest release of the CometVisu here: CometVisu releases, extract it and copy the 'release'-folder from the extracted archive to a local folder on your openHAB-server (e.g. /var/www/cometvisu)
2. Change the owner of the CometVisu-client folder to openhab, e.g. for linux systems:

       chown -R openhab:openhab /var/www/cometvisu

3. Open the openHAB administration UI, goto Administration -> Settings -> Other Services -> CometVisu and enter the absolute path to your local CometVisu client installation in the "Filesystem path" setting.

### Further information:

The prerequisites for a running version of the CometVisu are:

- The installed an running "CometVisu" add-on
- A local installation of the CometVisu Client, the correct configured path to it and access rights for the openHAB instance

### There are several reasons why this happened

1. You have not installed the CometVisu client on your local openHAB server yet
2. You do not have set the (absolute) path to your local CometVisu client in the 'userdata/config/org/openhab/cometvisu.config' file (webFolder=<absolute-path-to-your-local-cometvisu-client>)
3. The openHAB service has no access rights to the local CometVisu client folder
