Well that obviously didn’t work

I will take another crack as this later today.

As these are messages from HomeKit devices aka homebridge, what version of homebridge are you running?

And are you running any other none native HomeKit devices?

I am using homebridge v1.4.0 Currently only none native HomeKit devices in use.

[NorthernMan54]

Attempt # 2 is published at v0.5.58, and it should no longer trigger homebridge crashes. It will also log a lot more detail when the same data condition occurs.

[alexwala]

thx !

[alexwala]

will there be a new version ?

[NorthernMan54]

Any repeats or log messages?

[alexwala]

acually on v0.5.56 ... hm have to check plugin in homebridge

It should no longer crash with 0.5.58 and will log details on the message received to further debug this

[alexwala]

hm currently i do not get any 0.5.58 version - only 0.5.56, maybe isn't published ?

[alexwala]

ok now there is a 0.5.60...will let you know if error occurs again- - thx

[NorthernMan54]

I just pushed 0.5.60 and 0.5.61 ( made a typo in CHANGELOG with 0.5.60 )

[alexwala]

thanks for the quick support !

[NorthernMan54]

No problem, I was doing other things this AM and needed to re-publish anyway. Not sure why 0.5.58 wasn’t listed

got error again on main homebridge instance (192.168.0.100, homebridge-alex installed) :) 192.168.0.101 is another homebridge instance running on a RpiA (connected via wifi)

Error: _sendHapEvent Unexpected end of JSON input http://192.168.0.101:34653/characteristics {

[NorthernMan54]

Did it crash this time ?

This is what triggered the earlier crashes

body: '{"characteristics":[{"aid":1,"ii',

It should be a complete message and it is cut off

Can you supply more details on the version of home bridge running here, and what plugin this is from ?

http://192.168.0.101:34653

I want to attempt to duplicate the condition

[alexwala]

No crash this time :)

I think the homebridge connected via wifi (192.168.0.101) do sometimes a reconnect:

avahi-daemon[325]: Withdrawing address record for 192.168.0.101 on wlan0
dhcpcd[483]: wlan0: rebinding lease of 192.168.0.101

will try to disable plugin one by one and check log for errors

[NorthernMan54]

I have been trying to recreate this without any luck, any more error messages, hopefully that are a bit different
