Hoobs offers plugin update although it is already updated

[svobod3]

Description I am facing problem with a plugin (currently LG In Check for update section Hoobs still offers me update to new version although I already installed it and plugin has this version. When I click on Update button, log below follows, but nothing happends. When I connect to Hoobs again, situation remains the same. I followed previous advice (https://support.hoobs.org/topics/61c9df1fdcf29f5e39f02f34/61c9dfd0dcf29f5e39f030e3), but it did not help.

Can I get the exact name of the plugin? Is it LG? When I search for LG I get these plugins. https://plugins.hoobs.org/search/TEc

Which one are you using?

[svobod3]

Sure, it is LG Thinq plugin ( https://plugins.hoobs.org/plugin/homebridge-lg-thinq ). But the same happened to me also with Harmony plugin (https://plugins.hoobs.org/plugin/homebridge-harmony).

[mkellsy]

Awesome. Thanks for the information.

Great, thanks. If you need any further info please let me know.

[svobod3]

Maybe other info that can help you:

• when new plugin version is released, it is shown in GUI twice (in 2 rows)
• when I proceed update, plugin update is shown once (although plugin is already updated to the newest version)
• when other updates are available the only way how to proceed their update is to uninstall plugin, update the rest and install plugin again (or to execute curl -sk https://dl.hoobs.org/fix | sudo bash -)

i have the same issue with Connexoon plugin: https://plugins.hoobs.org/plugin/homebridge-connexoon

[svobod3]

Update from my side - as new version of Roomba2 plugin was released, it happened also to this plugin. So for me this problem is not plugin related as it happends for all 3 plugins I have.

Hello, any news regarding solving this issue?

[mkellsy]

4.2.2 is being released today. For faster response times please open a ticket here https://support.hoobs.org/

[svobod3]

I just updated to 4.2.2 and unfortunately problem with plugin update is still there:(

[mkellsy]

Can you post your logs? The update is failing. The logs can be downloaded from the Logs screen.

Was able to finally solve this. i installed a fresh new hoobs, BUT the trick is, not to restore from previous backup file. Just install all the plugins from scratch, and copy the config file. (Seems like the old backup file was corrupted)

[svobod3]

great, thanks for the tip, I will try it also

[mkellsy]

Something in yarn is causing the plugin to not update. Here's a workaround. The files are stored in /var/lib/hoobs/. You will see folders here for each bridge. cd into the bridge that has the plugin in it that won't update.

For example

cd /var/lib/hoobs/mypluginbridge/

Then remove the node_modules folder

sudo rm -fR node_modules

Then clear the yarn cache

sudo yarn cache clean

Then run yarn install to reinstall the plugins

sudo yarn install

If this doesn't update the plugin, try to update the through the UI.

Thanks; I think this worked but I had to reboot Hoobs before it did.

[hunt4868]

Nevermind; it did not work

Please reopen the ticket/thread - this was not resolved
