ERROR: Path must be a string

frodeaux commented 7 years ago

I love this plugin but I am attempting to install on a fresh Pi and I can not get it to run. Here are the details and the error it is giving me. I even installed a nest and an eco plug and was able to run them fine. Whenever the homebrige-controllerlink gets setup and put into the config, home bridge bombs. Any advice would be appreciated. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no luck !

Hardware: Raspberry Pi3 Running Jessie 8.0 Node Version: v4.6.0 NPM Version: 2.15.9

Config File: (JSON check out just fine)
