[keremicelli]

Hoobs plugin “Evohome” (0.11.0) does not work. Other plugins have no issues. Hoobs running on version 4.2.5 node version 16.15.1. Plugin configuration has not changed. Help much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Sorry to hear that. homebridge-evohome was originally written for homebridge and never tested nor optimised for Hoobs. I might not be able to fix this for you, as I don't have any compatible system.
Has this plugin previously been running okay?

Hi Lucas,

thank you very much for your prompt response.
Much appreciated! ❤️

I’m quite surprised now because, check this out:
https://plugins.hoobs.org/plugin/homebridge-evohome.
Here, it is listed as a “HOOBS certified” plugin. 😊 (HOOBS is based on Homebridge.)

And yes, it’s been working fine with HOOBS for nearly a year now… Until it all very suddenly stopped doing so. Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn’t help. I consistently receive the same error message as above.
I cleaned the cache, did restarts, etc. many times with no effect.
All other plugins and bridges running on HOOBS do work reliably. And I have quite a few of them… Therefore - as you can imagine - I absolutely do not want to do a complete reset.

If a straight fix for my issue is not possible, could you possibly recommend me an alternative way to integrate Honeywell (now Resideo) Evohome controls into Apple Home? Using HOOBS would of course be more preferable since I already manage several bridges with it.

Thank you very much!
Cheers
