Homebridge file "accessories/cachedAccessories" need to be deleted sometimes

g88704 commented 4 years ago

Hello,

thanks for your great homebridge plugin. One thing I noticed (but maybe it depends on my homebridge docker installation) is the following:

if I change the unifiBlockClients configuration, e.g. add another MAC-address
Then the next homebridge restart results in an exception within the unifiBlockClients plugin

To solve this, i do the following right now:

Stop the homebridge docker container
Delete the file "accessories/cachedAccessories"
Restart and everything is working like before

Is this normal or do I something wrong?

Thanks again and Kind Regards

Michael

Same error :( Message is "Error: Cannot add a bridged Accessory with the same UUID as another bridged Accessory"

I haven't taken the time to dig into this, but I'd love a pull request if someone understands how Homebridge accessory caching is supposed to work.
