I'd say you probably need to double check your homebridge version. Maybe uninstall the homebridge node module and reinstall it (which shouldn't mess up your config at all). Are you using HOOBS or straight homebridge?

[jwolynia]

Thank you for the quick response. I am using straight homebridge. I am fairly new to homebridge (4-6 months or so)…. I’m not too familiar with uninstalling the homebridge node module and reinstalling. Perhaps you have some advice or direction, if it’s not too much trouble?

npm uninstall -g homebridge to uninstall, then npm i -g homebridge@latest to reinstall. If install fails because of permissions, sudo npm install -g --unsafe-perm homebridge@latest

[Schosch83]

Thank you was helpful.

[jwolynia]

Following the steps to uninstall and reinstall homebridge did not solve the issue.

thanks for trying the homebridge reinstall. I'm wondering if one of your other plugins is messing with the underlying hap-node module. Can you try running homebridge-ring 8.0.0 without any of the other homebridge plugins? If that works, re-introduce each of your other plugins until you find the one that causes ring to error

[jwolynia]

I can definitely try this. Would you suggest removing the plugins in their entirety or just pulling the devices out of the config?

Are you on the latest version of config ui x? If not, try updating it

[jwolynia]

Confirmed. Already on latest version 4.17.1

[jwolynia]

Update: New Release of Config UI today - 4.18.0

   Issue remains.

[dgreif]

@jwolynia did you completely uninstall all of the other plugins or just remove them from your config? They need to be completely uninstalled to prevent any code from running. The most consistent way to do this would be to delete your global node_modules directory and re-install just homebridge and homebridge-ring

[jwolynia]

In my testing the other night, after performing a clean install of homebridge. I used confix UI to uninstall all plugins (and config data), restarted homebridge with no plugins installed, installed RING and setup per the config UI prompts, restarted home bridge, and received the same error on initialization.

[dgreif]

can you run npm list -g --depth=0 and post the output here?

[jwolynia]

/usr/lib ├── homebridge@1.0.4 ├── homebridge-camera-ffmpeg@0.1.19 ├── homebridge-chamberlain@1.6.0 ├── homebridge-config-ui-x@4.18.0 ├── homebridge-dummy@0.4.1 ├── homebridge-ring@8.0.0 └── npm@6.14.5

I added the plugins back in after my testing leaving RING as is in order to bring my home kit back to working order.

I can take the time to remove them again if you would like to see it that way, of course

[varokas]

Hi. I ran into this issue today. I was able to resolve it by uninstall then reinstall both latest homebridge-ring and homebridge. Sorry I haven't thought of capturing the dependencies tree to confirm if this is the same issue. But I hope this helps.

[dgreif]

@jwolynia can you uninstall each of those homebridge-* packages, then reinstall homebridge-ring and try again? npm uninstall -g package-name-here for each of them.

[jwolynia]

@dgreif , to confirm. Remove all packages or just remove ring, uninstall homebridge and then install homebridge then ring?

[dgreif]

Uninstall all of the homebridge packages, including ring and homebridge itself. Then reinstall homebridge and homebridge-ring only. If you run npm list -g --depth=0, you should only see homebridge, homebridge-ring and npm listed. Then try starting everything up with just ring in your config file

[jwolynia]

Excellent, thank you for the explanation and for taking the time to assist me. I will perform the test later this evening. Please stand by.

[malouf-erfan]

I have the same issue as well, for me this happened as of last homebridge-ring update

[dgreif]

I'm still really unclear what causes this issue as it is definitely caused by something in your environment. I'm releasing version 8.0.1 which will prevent that function call if that method doesn't exist. This was just a cleanup process anyways, one that doesn't really need to be done. Let me know if that version works for you

[malouf-erfan]

@dgreif thanks, I updated and I have home bridge Version 1.0.4, the issue still exists, here is a fresh screenshot:

[dgreif]

Says at the bottom of the logs that you have multiple versions of homebridge installed. One of them must not be version 1+

[malouf-erfan]

yeah that is strange, I remember only installing one, I will do some digging on my end and will remove / reinstall all home bridge to see how it goes, thanks for working on this. I really enjoyed the Ring plugin works perfect, I upgraded my home bridge from the UI today and this happened.

[malouf-erfan]

so this is strange I uninstalled the homebridge-ring plugin and I no longer get the multiple instances message, this is all the output:

I seem to have multiple instances of homebridge installed as well, per the errors I am seeing...... I am going to wipe my SD and perform a clean load, especially using homebridge v 1+ as I have only updated overtime and perhaps I have a bit of a mess. I will post my success or failure one I m complete.

[malouf-erfan]

got mine working by cleaning up multiple homebridge folder, I had to erase homebridge somehow it was installed in /usr/lib/node_modules and /usr/local/node_modules

normal fpm commands to remove and re-install did not work so deleted the files manually and reinstalled homebridge, all works now.

Thanks

[jwolynia]

Clean load of Raspian and homebridge to clean up my "multiple instances" issues. Installed Ring plugin....Works Flawlessly, including the programming of a doorbell chime being played on my home pod. Thank you for this!
