Ok so got more there, than not there, and now getting lots and lots of error messages.
I'm able to install and activate the plugin with no errors, but as soon as I create my server device, I get this error:
- Code: Select all
HomeKit Bridge Error Exception in plugin.serverFormFieldChanged_Device line 3595: 'key objectType not found in dict'
CODE: if valuesDict['objectType'] == 'device' or valuesDict['objectType'] == 'devicefiltered':
HomeKit Bridge Error Exception in plugin.serverFormFieldChanged_Action line 3654: 'key objectType not found in dict'
CODE: if valuesDict['objectType'] == 'action' or valuesDict['objectType'] == 'actionfiltered':
HomeKit Bridge Server 'new device' has changed ports or users, validating config
I can successfully add, edit, and delete devices from the HomeKit server,.
Next I get a popup in the OS saying the plugin cannot be opened because of unverified developer. When asked if I want to move to the trash, I choose cancel, and have to do so several times.
Now this is the error that shows up:
- Code: Select all

HomeKit Bridge Attempting to start '***HKS'
HomeKit Bridge HomeKit Bridge is loaded and ready to use
I've checked the right directory and the HomeKit folder is already there. I've deleted it, and restarted the plugin and the folder is recreated. There are no special permissions setup for anything, and everything for Indigo is in the default file location. I've also deleted the com.eps.indigoplugin..... folder, and the numbered folder inside, and manually recreated them, but the server still won't start.
Finally at some point, I get the last error message saying the server has been shut down, and to try rebuilding the Homebridge folder, which doesn't solve the problem.
I haven't changed any of the ports or advanced functions... The last line seems to indicate that all is well.... but my HomeKit Devices still shows "Stopped", so can't connect to the app on the phone.
I'm guessing there is something wrong here.... it all seems so simple, but I can't get the HomeKit server to run.
