Version 0.6.6 - TypeError: Cannot read property 'host' of null

[lboue]

Hello,

I am trying to use the latest version of this plugin on my Ubuntu PC.

npm install -g homebridge-fibaro-hc2

But when I start homebridge I am getting a TypeError: "Cannot read property 'host' of null "

It seems that the plugin is not able to read the config.json file. Which version of homebridge are you using?

[lboue]

I attached the config.json.txt file to this comment. I can't find a syntax error. Maybe you will.

I used 0.6.6 for the first test and then the 0.5.4 version

[ilcato]

Which version of homebridge are you using (not the version of the Fibaro plugin)?

[lboue]

Hello,

I am testing homebridge@0.3.4 with homebridge-fibaro-hc2@0.6.6. I attached my install script:homebridge-HC2-install.txt

[ilcato]

is your config.json in .homebridge ?

[lboue]

Is was not but in a SD card. Now with a config.json file in .homebridge it works. Thanks for your help.
