Duplicate link of BLRadar

[cerjzc]

I have started seeing this recently on startup of Homeseer:

Jun-27 19:41:17 Starting Plug-In Initializing plugin BLRadar ...
Jun-27 19:41:17 Error Initializing plug-in(2): BLRadar Instance::Object reference not set to an instance of an object.STACK: at System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.LogicalCallContext.Propaga teIncomingHeadersToCallContext(IMessage msg) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Proxies.RealProxy.PrivateInvoke(Mess ageData& msgData, Int32 type) at HomeSeerAPI.IPlugInAPI.InitIO(String port) at Scheduler.clsHSPI.CheckInterfaces()
Jun-27 19:41:06 Warning Attempt by plugin to register a duplicate link of blradar. Plugin: BLRadar Instance:

Jun-27 19:41:06 BLRadar start Loaded configuration successfully
Jun-27 19:41:05 BLRadar start BLRadar version is: 2.0.140.0

I don't get it everytime, but it does occur enough to be quite annoying. So far it has always only been on BLRadar for me I haven't seen it on any other plugin. I have tried to move the order of the plugins loading and put BLRadar first and while that seemed to help that time it sometimes still gets the error even when it is first in the load order. Noramlly stopping and starting the plugin doesn't work. Sometimes I can cycle Homeseer or I might have to reboot the computer to get it working again.

I did check for other posts about the problem and didn't see any for BLRadar, but saw a few instances on other plugins, but I haven't been able to find a permanent resolution.

Thanks,
Jeff

That is interesting - I have never seen this issue before

I also wanted to mention there are a couple other threads about other plugins seeing this issue on the board, but they span back several years. There are a few more recent ones as well. Moskus posted about it for TibberSeer in the .435 thread starting at post 92:

Also one from rmasonjr last year on his OMNI plugin:

So far I have always been able to get it to start up again, but I sometimes have to stop and start HS a few times or move where blradar is loaded in the plugin list. Also so far it is only BLRadar I have seen the issue on.

Thanks,
Jeff

That is strange - I am on a lower HS3 version
I will upgrade the dev environment and try it there and see if I can reproduce it

Thanks

Just as an update I had to cycle HS 2 times this morning for another issue and didn't see the problem.
