Error sending request (HTTP status code not defined

[barzoock]

I have several blinds, I refer to only one so that it can be read clearly. Also, I use "xxx" where it has private information.

          @barzoock please open a new issue, and post your complete config as well as logs with verbose enabled. e.g.,

        "verbose": true,
        "accessory": "BlindsHTTP"

Given that yours is the only report, it sounds like an issue with your http endpoint and not the plugin, but the logs and config will reveal what is happening.

Your endpoint API is rejecting the request, which is strange. Are you using Bond (based on your config, it appears you are)? I'm wondering if your HB device has intermittent network connectivity.

Error: connect ECONNREFUSED xxx:80

The HB server is stable, and I've set up Bond with a static IP. This ensures that the plugin consistently connects to the same IP and functions properly. Despite resetting the internet several times, this issue wasn't resolved. However, switching to DHCP and using a different IP seemed to work. Consequently, I configured a static IP directly in the internet modem. Now, everything is functioning smoothly, and the IP remains constant. I will continue to monitor the setup over the next few days to confirm its stability.

Thanks for following up @barzoock. Please feel free to re-open this issue if needed. Note that you can also customize the retry (see the documentation) which may help in your case if you have further issues.
