@dynamite i wish I had any idea. Some people say they have resolved this by changing their network connection to the RPI. It seems to help,to have it connected directly to the router with wires.

@michbeck100 hmmm, I already have it wired… Sometimes I also have problems with Apple printing so maybe it is the router itself.
-
also got my raspi wired directly to the router.
@michbeck100 any idea why i can only see devices of pimatic-led-light plugin? my switches vanished. -
@thymian sorry, no idea. Anything in the logs?

At the moment in just crashes when running deamonized. Tomorrow I will try to run it with the shell script again. Maybe that helps. I just like the possibility with Siri a lot so I hope we can debug it to a cause (Again)
@michbeck100 what OS are you running? Do you have any other plugins running?
How about the user permissions on the hap database? As it was first the location of the database which would make it “Crash” -
@dynamite I’m not sure that it was the location of the database. It could also have been an “automatic” update of the dependencies, like mdns.
I’m running a standard install on raspbian wheezy. I don’t think its the plugins that im using.
see the comment of KhaosT in https://github.com/nfarina/homebridge/issues/391. Maybe thats a hint. My guess is also that it has to to with the network at peoples home. Otherwise there would be more people complaining.pimatic-hap - pimatic HomeKit bridge

@michbeck100 @thymian Diving a bit deeper into the hardware side. It might be related to the Router I am using. (Fritzbox) As mentioned my printer also has problems when printing from a apple device. There are some issues with the Fritzbox device and the apple bonjour protocol. @thymian are you using the same device?
-
@dynamite sorry to say, but no. I am using an ZyXEL NBG6716 Media Router AC1750.
I dont think its a general fritz.box issue, because many people use them and that would mean we should have more failures.

@michbeck100 My outside temperature sensor (GT-WT-02) is measuring -7.6 degrees Celsius right now. This is also displayed in the log and in the pimatic frontend. However, Eve is showing 0.0 degrees Celsius.
Temperature values seem to be displayed correctly when >= 0.0 degrees.Log:

@l0mp1 found this issue the day before already myself. And fixed it. It was just not cold enough to find before 😁. Will be released soon together with some more fixes.

strange things are happening.
I already talked about devices vanishing and only pimatic-led-light devices showing up.Recently for no reason devices appear and disappear in irregular time frames.
few devices picture <-> all devices pictureAdditionally when i switch whatever device it usually takes a long time (like 5 sec or so) until pimatic really toggles it.
Edit: No, i didnt change anything on the phone, and as you can see barely 3 hours went by.
-
@thymian any log entries? Seems you are the only one having these problems at the moment.

homekit is working fine for me (for 1 month?).
-
Currently everything is working fine again. I will investigate as something brakes down again.
Thanks for your support michbeck100!
-
For me it is still unstable, but I think it has to do with my local network as it works sometimes without changing any settings or rebooting.
-
@dynamite Sorry to hear that. I did have problems a while ago, too. The only thing i changed on my network, was to switch back from 5 Ghz to 2.4 Ghz wifi. Not sure if that helps.

Well yesterday i did a fully update/upgrade of my system and it seems running now… Fingers crossed…:-)
-
Hello,
today i restarted pimatic, because i pimped my homeduino with the solder bridge. (Works Fine at restart)After that i had an not reachable in my home kit app.
After delete home kit-data, delete hap-database folder, restart pimatic, delete plugin folder, etc.
i maid everything i have done bevor to find or eleminate an issue.
I restarted the system for several time, but when i’m connecting the homebridge in the app i stops at the following position.
he can’t communicate with the bridge because of an communication error.
Fehler Ein Netzwerk oder anderer Kommunikationsfehler
but i restarted everything several times. everything works, just the hap not.greeting
