Sometimes when I restart Homebridge the sensors disappear in Home App #15

It does not always happen but if for some reason I have to restart Homebridge all the sensors disappear from everywhere, to solve it I have to put the plugin in "reset" mode so that HB can recreate them. It's funny because I also use them in Home Assistant with a similar system using Scrape and it has never happened to me. This happened to me already with the version of the plugin older than the new one a few days ago.

What I have noticed is that the web measurements.mobile-alerts.eu where the information is extracted from is sometimes down for a few minutes, not if it has anything to do with it.

The service depends on measurements.mobile-alerts.eu being online. So if it is down you cannot receive any data.

It is logical that if the web is down the sensors do not work, but this that the sensors disappear after a restart is normal? Thanks!

No, disappearing sensors aren't normal. But this issue isn't reproducable to me. I assume this is an issue with your homebridge.

Ok, I will check my installation.

Thanks
