I am getting the following error on loading of the plug in. Computer appears to have a name and sharing is standard settings.

Alexa-Hue Bridge Error Computer has no host name specified. Check the Sharing system preference and restart the plugin once the name is resolved. Alexa-Hue Bridge 'Hue name' has 2 devices published Alexa-Hue Bridge Starting Hue Bridge 'Hue name' web server thread Alexa-Hue Bridge Starting Hue Bridge 'Hue name' discovery threads as 'Auto Start Discovery' requested Alexa-Hue Bridge Error StandardError detected in Responder.Run for 'Hue name'. Line '166' has error='must be string, not None'

In my case this was due to some issue with OS X Server. Reading all previous posts (on the forum not here), I eventually resolved it, but to be honest not sure the sequence or actual solution. The Server app had an alert that needed me to click "resolve" on the "Local host name mismatch". After that it worked.
