authentication problem #532

Closed lobmarib closed 2 years ago

lobmarib commented 2 years ago

Hi there,

My old installation just stopped working because of my login (?). I had to register myself once again and now there is a subscription. Though, it seems my credentials don't work despite of whatever I do...

"[Alexa] ERROR: ( homebridge-alexa) Login to homebridge.ca failed, please validate your credentials in config.json and restart homebridge."

I've already activated the debug and I don't see nothing related on the log.

Any help will be very appreciated.

Thanks

The login and password are case sensitive and if you created a new account you would need to update the config.json with the new credentials

Thanks for the quick feedback.

Case is right as well the (new) credentials... 🙄

The other possibility is that you had tripped the DDOS protection. To reset it stop the plugin or your RPI for 5 minutes

@NorthernMan54 thanks for the hint, it worked. I've stopped the (docker) container the entire night and now it seems to be working - the login. Though, the "5 - Last plugin response" is still red...

Ignore the last plugin response in red. It's all working now. Cheers
