Pimatic doesn't start after hap installation

johannesbonn

Hello,

i’m using pimatic v0.9 since some weeks without any problems. Today I’ve tried to install hap (without any problems) over the gui. After a restart of my pi, I recognized that pimatic didn’t start. Here is the output when I start it manually:

20:18:06.905 [pimatic-mobile-frontend] rendering html finished

20:18:09.002 [pimatic] exiting…

Can somebody explain to me, what I 'm doing wrong or what I have to change.

Thank you very much!

seems like an error in the pimatic-wemo plugin.
what network device is 192.168.2.57:1400 ? is this a wemo switch?
what else did you change? did you change the wemo-switch ip adress or port?
in the plugin readme there is a note that the device has to be "re-added"
if so, try to edit the config.json manually and delete the wemo device there and start pimatic.
but first backup your config, you’ll never know …

This comes from the pimatic-sonos plugin when the sonos speaker is offline.

I think the EHOSTUNREACH error isn’t doing any harm here. The problem is the uncaught exception from pimatic-wemo caused by the HTTP Bad Request.

Another point worth mentioning. The module path looks like your’re using npm version 3. If other issues popup in your setup you should downgrade to npm version 2.

Please also make sure you have node version 4 (LTS) installed (which contains npm version 2).
Node version 6 is not (yet) supported with pimatic!

@johannesbonn I have reviewed the pimatic-wemo code and there are various issues with that. My advice to you is to remove the plugin for now until the issues have been resolved. If you need a working alternative to pimatic-wemo right now, please have a look at pimatic-ouimeaux (which requires ouimeaux to be installed - see README for details) - https://pimatic.org/plugins/pimatic-ouimeaux/

Thank you very much, the wemo plugin was the problem. But why I don’t understand. Without the hap plugin everything was fine, also with the wemo plugin.

Wish a nice evening!
