PI connects then disconnects

Hi All,

Updated to last edition but now get following error. I can confirm I am running hue as emulator for Alexa so not sure if that has now any bearing.

Error log shows

Anyone ?

Stevie,

I don't what is going wrong for you. Is the emulated bridge on port 80 or another port? The plugin will handle both differently, but should mention the emulated bridge at the start of the log once. Did it mention it?

Could you help me with a trace maybe? Set the deep trace and trace to file options on in the configuration page of the plugin. then stop the plugin and start it again.

Let it run until it faults for you. then get the log file from the logs subdirectory of HS3 (both JowiHue.log and JowiHue-last.log). then send these files to my email address: w dot vuyk at upcmail dot nl?

Wim, thanks, will do. There's never been any problems updating. I've used bridge emulator for ages with no problems. PI has always been stable and worked fine. Will do as requested and will email over will do sometime tomorrow.

Thanks

Wim,

It doesn't stay connected long enough for me to enable any options in the log. Would a delete and install help?
Will it keep all settings if i do this?

Stevie,

The savest thing you can do is leaving the plugin where it is, but delete both bridge devices, do not delete anything else?

Stop the plugin before deleting the bridges. After the restart it will recreate the bridge again.... not the emulated bridge device anymore...
It could help if the plugin did not remove the emulated bridge by itself....

Wim, thanks. That did the trick. All working as it should be.

Thank you for your help [emoji106]

Glad it helped. I suppose the emulated bridge was not deleted properly. will check on that for the next version

Thanks,
