new error

Karl:
I upgraded the plugin recently and now notice the following error. Not sure why. I have not changed my username or pw or ip address of the USG

could you open config and check if the userid /pass wd are correct.

You can also do menu "PRINT parameters to logfile" / "PRINT Config parameters to logfile "
the output will be in /Library/Application Support/Perceptive Automation/Indigo 7.4/Logs/com.karlwachs.uniFiAP/plugin.log

Karl

Also could you switch debug expect on

Email me the plugin.log file

It will contain userid and passwords!!

Thanks for your help.

I updated the USG controller software which which now recognized capital letters and lowercase differently. I adjusted my login name which had a capital instead of a lower case letter in it
Thanks for your help.

They only error now is the following which is standard I think.

Correct?

uniFiAP Error logger enabled for ERROR ==> TEST ONLY
uniFiAP Critical Error logger enabled for CRITICAL ==> TEST ONLY

Yes as it states: It’s a test.

Should show you what kind of logging is enabled.

Same error?

Not regular, and the plugin appears to be working correctly, with no recent changes to my setup.

how often does it happen? Anything < 3 minutes could be a problem , if it happens infrequently , the box might be busy and does not answer properly, and it is fixed in the next cycle

I started getting the user/pass error too immediately after upgrading the plugin. No changes to the user/pass on my controller in a long time, and the Indigo plugin UI shows the correct info still.

Plugin v: 7.30.238
Controller type is a Cloud Key Plus v2

could you switch on debug (7) and (8)
connection and expect

then restart the plugin, in plugin.log check the "expect" statements if the proper userid / password are used.

you are looking for a line w
... curl --insecure -c /tmp/unifiCookie -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" --data {"username":youruserid,"password":yourpasswd,"strict":self.useStrictToLogin}) ...
and
...curl+" --insecure -b /tmp/unifiCookie " ... + " 'https://" ...

Okay, so here's some more information...

In the plugin settings, in the 'user IDs' section I have:
1. http fopr controller: <name1>, <password1>
2. ssh: <name2>, <password2>

And those match teh accounts that I've set in the UniFi dashbaord:
1. <name1><password1> is a custom Admins : Network Administrator, given the Administrator role
2. <name2><password2> is the Network Settings : Device Authenticaion : SSH Authentication : SSH Username & password

What I see in the logs is:

Code: Select all

18:47:40 Connection: /usr/bin/curl --insecure -c /tmp/unifiCookie -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"username": "<name1>", "strict": false, "password": "<password1>"}' 'https://10.0.4.2:8443/api/s/'

Happening either every few seconds or minutes depending on... maybe when I restart the plugin it does it a bunch in a row then settles in to the minute or so timing.

could you open a terminal and try:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/curl --insecure -c /tmp/unifiCookie -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"username": "<name1>", "strict": false, "password": "<password1>"}' 'https://10.0.4.2:8443/api/login/'

put in userid and password

your config should look like:

{"meta":{"rc":"error","msg":"api.err.Invalid"},"data":[]}

And that screenshot doesn't match what I see in the config... Specifically the http: Api Login Page: is set to /api/s. I'll edit that and see what happens.

1. site ID should be default --Only if you have done MAJOR configs w several sites this parameter could be something else than default
2. the lines under login and web site are the known options to be used.
==>> YOU NEED TO PICK THE RIGHT ONE!! the option fields are setup as a text field (read only) so that you can copy the text

Yes, my site id is correct

2. the lines under login and web site are the known options to be used.
==>> YOU NEED TO PICK THE RIGHT ONE!! the option fields are setup as a text field (read only) so that you can copy the text

Sure. I've updated it and that seems to have solved the problem. My point is that I used to have a working install, I updated, and it stopped working. Something caused that field to become corrupt/wrong/ changed/etc, because I certainly didn't type "s" in there I didn't even look at that part of the settings as part of troubleshooting, because I was paying attention to the username/password as the problem. Perhaps an error message could be created that identifies when a parameter is set to something unexpected / unrecommended.

I understand your frustration, I am not perfect

as for the options: I have made it a free text field to enable the user to put in anything they need
A menu option would limit it to fixed options.

It looks as if UNIFI is changing web pages and other things frequently without notice.

That is why I thought a text field is the proper choice. Limiting the choices to the known options makes it less flexible. Thats why I added the option fields to list the know variations.
