No plug-in found for accessory “dht22” in config.json

[Spudaaa]

Hi, not sure if the repos is still active but I’ve not long been into homebridge. Having a lot of issues. Managed to get this far from your instructable page.

keep getting these massages in the logs, any idea?

I have reinstalled the plugin multiple times, checked the config.JSON seems to match your examples. Desperate to get this first raspberry pi project working.

[NorthernMan54]

That instructable is out of date and doesn't match the current configuration

Updated instructions are here - https://github.com/NorthernMan54/homebridge-dht/blob/master/Build.md

But with that said, this error means that the plugin did not install No plugin was found for the accessory "Dht" in your config.json.

Did you get any errors during the install ?

[Spudaaa]

No errors installed perfectly.

[Spudaaa]

I checked the GitHub instructions too still no joy. I have also reinstalled the plugin multiple times

[Spudaaa]

i have completely flashed the imageback to the pi and started again, now when installing bm2835

That message is saying that the previous step make had an issue, what does the output of make say ?

[NorthernMan54]

humm, what is in this file src/test-suite.log ?

[Spudaaa]

[NorthernMan54]

Sounds like a permission issue with /dev/mem, try running the test again with sudo

[Spudaaa]

Update: Library installed.. took another re-flash of the micro Sd and not to install the web ui until after.

See logs now not temperature readings

[NorthernMan54]

This version should not use [cputemp] cputemp function failed: Error: spawn cputemp ENOENT for the DHT Temperature. What is in your config.json ?

The error Error: [Error: failed to read sensor] is coming from the library node-dht-sensor. Do you have the wiring correct ?

[Spudaaa]

Wiring is exactly to your specs

Config now stands at

[Spudaaa]

This is the sensor used.. I have got another 2 incase of sensor failure
