Install successful but Critical plugin has disconnected message after

[sooty]

I'm running into the same exact error as jmmorgan. Running:

HS3 standard 3.0.0.313 on a rpi3.
Plug-in version: 3.0.1.90
There is a copy of System.Data.SQLite.dll in \HS3\Bin\PHLocation, file version is 1.0.104.0.

Has anyone figured out the resolution?

Thanks in advance!

The problem is the SQLite version. Please re-download and re-install plug-in version 3.0.1.90 to fix the issue.

Tried to use PhLocation today but I am getting the same disconnect error. I have tried to download the zip a second time but the error still occurs. Also only have 1 copy of the SQL.LITE.dll file in the Homeseer root folder.

Here is my log file.

There should be no copies of the SQLite dll in the HS3 root folder.

If you temporarily remove / rename that SQLite dll does the plug-in start OK?

Hi Paul, did you ever get a chance to look at the myhs connectivity for your plugin ?

I will give that a try when I am at home after work.
Thanks

Hi Paul, did you ever get a chance to look at the myhs connectivity for your plugin ?

The short answer is yes.

The longer answer is:
I've only tested it with Locative and EgiGeoZone geofencing apps so I'm not sure if it will behave with the other supported services.

The current issue is that I have quite a long todo list for the plug-in and I haven't prioritised things due to the total lack of any spare time recently.

Paul..

[mikee123]

I completely understand. I use Egigeozone / pathsense so will give it a try. I have sent you a email for the activation key as I am out of trial, I never uninstalled the PI

Hi Paul,

I am getting this now. I had a windows server patch to do and then rebooted my server. When it came back up I recieved the critical error.

Reading the other posts, I deleted the complete plug in (was running .90) and reinstalled it from scratch. Same result.

I started the developer mode and here is the output.

Thank you! I had to go to 372, but it did fix it.

[Malosa]

Same error ?

Given the recent issues with ini files and the fact that it's not the first time we've seen problems with HS3 and ini files, the next version of the plug-in will not use them at all.
