The 4.0.x version is a major upgrade. It not only provides Python3 compatibility but also has a new format for the irrigation program data.
There is a utility program in the SIP folder "convert_progs.py" that is intended to automatically convert the data in the programs.json file and save it into a separate file named programData.json. During startup SIP tries to load the programData.json file and if the file is not found it will run the convert_progs.py file.
If you have a backup of your programs.json file you can either delete the programData.json file and restart SIP or run the conversion program manually with
from the SIP directory. Your original data file will not be changed.
I appreciate the feedback.
There is still a lot to do such as updating and testing some of the plugins and improving the documentation. The most widely used plugins have been updated including the relay_board , relay16, the weather_level_adj and the mqtt plugins however those plugins need to be re-installed to work with SIP V4 and no longer work with SIP V3.
I am not sure why you got the "internal server error". I have done a full re-install on my local SIP system and found and fixed a few bugs before posting V4 to GitHub but things seem to be working as expected here.
The rainy season had started here and I have disabled all the irrigation for the winter so I am relying on users to report problems.
Thanks again.
