Error trying to get to UltraCID tab on Homeseer

[pabbott@cpak.com]

This is a new install...When I go the UltraCID tab it says the following:

System.MissingMemberException: Public member 'WEBUserRolesAuthorized' on type 'MarshalByRefObject' not found. at Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.Symbols.Container.Get Members(String& MemberName, Boolean ReportErrors) at Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.NewLateBinding.LateGe t(Object Instance, Type Type, String MemberName, Object[] Arguments, String[] ArgumentNames, Type[] TypeArguments, Boolean[] CopyBack) at ASP.hspi_ultracid_hspi_ultracid_aspx.Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e) in C:\Program Files\HomeSeer 2\html\hspi_ultracid\hspi_ultracid.aspx:line 95

Any Ideas?
I have the Rosewill modem but I'm getting the Zoom model shortly.

Thanks,

Zoom Modem doesn't work either

In the log it says com port not set but going to the ultracid tab gives the above error so I cant configure.

Help!!

Not sure I can help with the primary problem which seems to be that ultracid's config page isn't pulling up, but maybe I can help you get the basic config entered manually.

The basic config options for ultraCID are contained in an INI file. It's called "HSPI_ULTRACID.INI". You'll find it in the config directory under the Homeseeer 2 directory. The exact directory that you'll find Homeseer 2 in will vary a bit with the OS version, but it's likely just in "program files" off of the root of C. On my install under Windows XP, the file is at c:\Program Files\Homeseer 2\Config\HSPI_ULTRACID.ini.

So with Homeseer shut down, look for the INI file above, open it in notepad, look for the line that says "Serial1=" and change the end of the line to indicate your com port number. For example, if your modem is on COM2, the line would read "Serial1=COM2". Save the file, then start homeseer.

In most installs all the plug-in needs to know is where to find the modem, so you should be good to go from there. Of course, you'll still have the problem of the ROsewill modem not returning CID info.... But you'll be able to see some activity from the modem, like when an extension goes off-hook.

Line 95 is the very first call to the underlying plug-in. It essentially means the ASPX web page served up though HomeSeer is not communication with the UltraCID plug-in.

I know this is a common issue when running HomeSeer as a service. Are you running HomeSeer as a service?

Please perform a find on hspi_ultracid.dll and let me know what HomeSeer folders it is installed it. It should exist in the HomeSeer root directory and the {HomeSeer}/html/bin directory.

Thanks

I am running Homeseer as a service and that was the problem.

Thanks very much.
