Any idea what is causing this?

[w.vuyk]

Did you just upgrade to HS4? Or is this after a restart? As I see it creating devices, which might not be a expected result for you?
I had a similar situation when I was still using the HS3 plugin on HS4. for me I discovered then that the devoces.json file of HS4 was fault. Recovering this file from a backup and a new restart solved the issue for me? Could it be that this is happening here too now?

Wim

[akatar]

No, i upgrades to hs4 quite some time ago, it's not a big problem that te plugin restarts but i was just curious why?

This with the lines reporting about the erranous "birdges" which are lights trigger me to worry here. There could be a bit more to this issue. Those make me think of a damaged json file.

The plugin restarting is an issue that happens every now and then in the HS3 version, but those occasions should be very rare indeed. This fault is solved in the HS4 version BTW.

Wim

[akatar]

No, i did not add any new lights, and i will go to hs4 plugin (when i am bored and have some time to spent )

[w.vuyk]

Not pushing you to the HS4 plugin at all here, I am not trying to force on this. But I am really worried on the devices mentioned? I do think something is wrong?

If you do a new restart and new devices are created again, could you try to remove the devices, like the red lines were mentioning and restart the plugin to let it recreate those devices that have been removed? If this does not resolve the issues let me know?

I guess these groups are created by another app, maybe the Hue labs (which uses a lot of $xxxxx grouping) or Philips Hue app? The plugin finds these groups and creates devices for it. It is not something from the plugin itself. But also here the errors are pointing to missing devices.....
Again, I think you have a damaged devices.json file. Do you have a backup of the json files from the date before these errors started?

I would not advise to let the HS4 plugin do the conversion in this state. Did you try to remove the mentioned devices?

Wim

[akatar]

I removed a couple, not all of them yet. i have to recreate all events i guess?
i don't use other apps
When i have some time tp spent, i will delete them all and go to the hs4 plugin

[w.vuyk]

If you need to update the events depends on how you have build the events. If you have been using the JowiHue action, then there is no change needed as those are device independent. If you have used device actions for setting the lights, you need to update the existing events. The easiest way to do this is using the folowing steps:

1. Decide which device you are going to remove (don't do it just yet)
2. Open a browser tab with the HS devices page open.
3. In the top right there is a search box. Search here for the devicename. You will see list of events where the device is used. Do not close this page!
4. Open a second browser window and delete the device and its child devices
5. Let the plugin restart and create the new device
6. Go back to the search window and right click on an event link, open in new tab.
7. Now you can adjust the event with addressing the new device
8. repeat step 6 and 7 for each event

Do the above steps per device and you will discover this is a method that works even quite fast when you do it.
