Homebridge Buddy Error

Hi Guys
On fresh install I got this error after starting Indigo
EPS - Homebridge Buddy Error Exception encountered with /Library/Application Support/Perceptive Automation/Indigo 7/Plugins/Prowl.indigoPlugin
EPS - Homebridge Buddy Error Exception in plugcache.refresh line 552: LowLevelBadParameterError -- illegal character in XML tag name or value
CODE: self.pluginCache[plugInfo["id"]] = plugInfo

Not sur if it's why I'don't see any devices in the home app ?
Regards
Vic

Re: EPS - Homebridge Buddy Error

I don't think that should impact you because that's saying that it's having problem reading the Prowl plugin XML data so it should report it and move on and you wouldn't be able to utilize Prowl specific commands.

Did you include devices in HBB? It won't automatically include everything, you have to be selective since each HBB server can support only 99 devices.

EPS - Homebridge Buddy {
"accessories": [],
"bridge": {
"username": "DD:22:3D:E3:CE:30",
"name": "Homebridge for Indigo",
"pin": "031-45-154",
"port": 51826
},
"description": "Homebridge-Indigo configuration generated by EPS Homebridge Buddy on 2017-08-24 18:01:44 for device Homebridge for Indigo",
"platforms": [
{
"username": "",
"includeIds": [
"32463163",
"582517878",
"1121276735",
"805679069"
],
"protocol": "http",
"name": "Homebridge for Indigo",

Re: Homebridge Buddy Error

Ok, I installed the Prowl plugin and got the same error, something I'll address in the next release, however HBB still functions fine as I thought.

Re: Homebridge Buddy Error

Ok the problem is you have a username and password set for Indigo but didn't provide it to the plugin, notice your message:

Code: Select all
</head>
<body>
<center>
access denied
</center>
</body>
</html>


That's coming from Indigo's API server, so you need to provide the username and password. Go into Plugins -> EPS Homebridge Buddy -> Configure and add your web access username and password that you used for Indigo's access.
