Connection error to controller

Lately I'm seeing lot's of connection errors in my Indigo logfile.
They appear a couple of times per minute.

Code: Select all
   uniFiAP Error                    Connection error: >>A.B.C.D<<
{"meta":{"rc":"error","msg":"api.err.InvalidObject"},"data":[]}
   uniFiAP Error                    Connection error: >>A.B.C.D<<
{"meta":{"rc":"error","msg":"api.err.InvalidObject"},"data":[]}

A.B.C.D is the IP address for my UniFi controller on macOS.

Any idea why this is happening?

Solved! Connection error to controller

I've found the cause of these errors.

I enabled the Protect option for the camera's. But my setup is special. The camera's are connected to a CloudKey Gen 2+, but my UniFi Controller runs on a Mac.

The plugin assumes Protect runs on the same device as the Controller.
It even mentions this in the fine print, but I read that only after I discovered this.

So in the end it was just a case of PEBKAC.

Re: Connection error to controller

Allowing those to run on 2 machines is on my list. But likely not this year.
