Do you have the file it's looking for?
C:\Program Files\HomeSeer\scripts\WAF-NetCallerID.vbh

Sorry, I meant to include that info in the original post. Yes it's there, with a creation date of 12/20/04 and a size of 27KB. Is it possible that file is corrupt?

It could be. I would delete all the files that were installed. Delete the WAF-NetCallerID.ini file and try again.

No luck.

I shut down HS, deleted all files related to WAF-CID, and ran Updater to download/update WAF-CID.

I still did not get any sort of dialog box/prompts to configure AND when I restarted HS, I got the following in the HS log:

2/12/2005 10:10:04 PM~!~Error~!~Reading script: C:\Program Files\HomeSeer\scripts\waf-netcallerid.vbh Length of decrypted script is not valid at length of 0

Any thoughts?

Is this what's in your "startup" script--i_ret = hs.RunEx("WAF-NetCallerID.vbh","open_ncid","")

And these files are in your script folder"waf-netcallerid.vbh" "WAF-NetCallerID-Sample-CID-Processing.vbs"

And the WAF ini file says this--
s_cid_prefix=Incoming Transmission from
i_call_external_script=1
s_script_name=WAF-NetCallerID-Sample-CID- Processing.vbs
s_function_name=process_ncid_data
s_phone_list_file=WAF-NetCallerID-Phone-List.txt

Just checking

Yep

Here's my startup script:

' this is the startup script
' it is run once when HomeSeer starts up
'
' this is a good place to default status on some devices
'
sub main

'hs.DebugMode = 1 ' log all script activity
'hs.DebugMode = 2 ' log all event activity
'hs.DebugMode = 4 ' log condition checks
'hs.DebugMode = 8 ' log status and value changes
'hs.DebugMode = 16 ' trace functions to file hstrace.log

' uncomment the following line to auto create devices for all your Napco zones
'hs.run "napco_init.txt"

i_ret=hs.RunEx("waf-netcallerid.vbh","open_ncid","")

' hs.speak "Welcome to Home Seer",TRUE

end sub

Both of the referenced files are in the "scripts" folder.

And, here's my ini file (which is in HS\config):

;
; This INI file controls the operation of the WAF-NetCallerID system.
;
; Here is a description of the parameters below:
; i_com_port is the number of the COM port that the NetCallerID device is connected to.
; i_com_port_resource (1 - 8) is the number of the resource assigned to the COM port.
; i_hsp_installed (1=True, 0=False) indicates whether HomeSeer Phone is installed.
; i_hs_announces_caller (1=True, 0=False) indicates whether HomeSeer will announce caller's
; name. Will be 0 if user is planning to have external script process CID.
; s_cid_prefix holds the words spoken before the CID name, if HomeSeer (as opposed to
; HomeSeer Phone) is used to announce the caller's name.
; i_cid_reversed (1=True, 0=False) Indicates that CID information is presented last name first.
; i_cid_comma_delimiter (1=True, 0=False) Indicates that there is a comma separating the
; first/last names in CID data.
; i_call_external_script (1=True, 0=False) Indicates that CID information should be passed
; to and external script.
; s_script_name is the name of the external script that will be called after CID data is
; received. A sample script 'WAF-NetCallerID-Sample-CID-Processing.vbs' is provided.
; s_function_name is the name of the function within the script that will be called with the
; CID data. A sample function 'process_ncid_data' is provided in the sample script.
; s_phone_list_file contains the name of the text file of telephone numbers, codes and
; custom announcement text.
; i_enable_logging (1=True, 0=False) Indicates whether Or Not the script will Write CID Data
; To the HomeSeer log.
; InstallDone (True, False) indicates that the hs_install was executed successfully or this
; file was modified to contain the values appropriate for the installation.
;

[Settings]
i_com_port=2
i_com_port_resource=2
i_hsp_installed=0
i_hs_announces_caller=1
s_cid_prefix=Call From
i_cid_reversed=1
i_cid_comma_delimiter=0
i_call_external_script=0
s_script_name=WAF-NetCallerID-Sample-CID-Processing.vbs
s_function_name=process_ncid_data
s_phone_list_file=WAF-NetCallerID-Phone-List.txt
i_enable_logging=1
InstallDone=True

To me, it seems that everything is where it should be, but for some reason, HS doesn't "like" the "waf-netcallerid.vbh" file.

Hi, Joe,

Sorry to hear about your woes. It sure sounds as if the .VBH file is corrupt (I haven't heard of this issue before). If you'd e-mail me (david at retroscape dot com), I'd be happy to send you a copy directly to see if that helps.
