Error: socket hang up

[KiboOst]

Hi,

I'm using a docker homebridge image on Synology NAS with DSM6. The image: marcoraddatz/homebridge

Installed devolo plugin, got uuid, passkey and updated coonfig.json, but here is what I get:

Initializing Devolo platform... HBDevoloPlatform > Searching for Devolo Central Unit. HBDevoloPlatform > Central Unit found.

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/homebridge-devolo/dist/index.js:65 throw err; ^ Error: socket hang up at createHangUpError (_http_client.js:302:15) at Socket.socketCloseListener (_http_client.js:334:23) at emitOne (events.js:101:20) at Socket.emit (events.js:191:7) at TCP._handle.close [as _onclose] (net.js:511:12)

Any idea ?

[KiboOst]

Just to ad more infor, if I remove the platform devolo in config.json, all works and I can add homebridge on my iOS10 iPhone.

As soon as I add the Devolo in config.json, it crash after have find the central unit

[kdietrich]

Can you please start homebridge with the -D flag and provide a full log? I'll look into it. Thanks!

I just tested apt-get update/upgrade, all went fine, but still same error.

[KiboOst]

Any idea I could test ?

[kdietrich]

The error is raised when the first call to your local devolo gateway occurs. Are you sure that the IP address in config is right? Have you tried to ping the IP on the device that runs homebridge?

[KiboOst]

I will double check, but yes all is right, and it does say HBDevoloPlatform > Central Unit found and return passeky/uuid. The php API also works perfectly with same params.

[kdietrich]

Does it work with the session id that is output in the log file?

[KiboOst]

ah, interesting !! I will test that this evening when at home !

[KiboOst]

Ok, just did the test: homebridge -D copy sessionID paste it into php api -> it works

Could it be a socket not sending end message, or some timeout ?

ping to IP from homebridge device does answer 100%, around 2ms

[KiboOst]

Let me know if you have anything to test ;-)

[KiboOst]

Ok, just setup a raspberry Pi3 fresh raspbian with homebridge, exact same result.

Don't see what I could try ...

[KiboOst]

Just in case:

root@raspberrypi:/home/pi# wget 192.168.0.25/dhlp/portal/light --2017-06-29 18:33:17-- http://192.168.0.25/dhlp/portal/light Connecting to 192.168.0.25:80... connected. HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 401 Unauthorized Username/Password Authentication Failed.

All seems ok, any idea why it doesn't work ?

[kdietrich]

Which version are you on? master or latest release?

[KiboOst]

I guess master, I have retried again, this time following this: https://www.loggn.de/apple-home-homekit-devolo-geraete-mit-der-apple-app-steuern-homebridge/#comment-187331

installed with: npm install -g homebridge-devolo node 6.11.0 npm 3.10.10 Have tried with nearly all versions of nodes/npm, homebridge always works alone and but never got devolo running

[KiboOst]

Ok, tried on a full raspbian, exact same thing. Sorry, giving up, too much waste of time for me ...

[kdietrich]

All I can say is that the plugin - as is - is used in multiple environments without any issues. Is there a way you can give me SSH access to your raspberry? I'd really like to check what's going on.

[KiboOst]

How could I do that? I have a ddns and can map a port to the rasp IP but does ssh will follow ? Please send an email to kiboost thesign free point fr, won't give adress here

[kdietrich]

Sure, I'll ping you per mail when I'm free later!

[KiboOst]

ok, have access right with putty from exterior. We can connect on facebook for live discussion in needed, will test you in answer email. Thanks

[kdietrich]

I've contacted you per mail.

[KiboOst]

Many thanks Kevin, it now works ! Was a timeout in the node-devolo code, after increasing it, it now works both on Synology NAS Docker and Raspberry :-)

[manix1979]

What line needs to be edited to get it work?

[ramsnerm]

What kind of changes did you made?

[KiboOst]

Hi,

You have to change the timeout value in this line:

req.setTimeout(10000, function () {
    req.connection.destroy();
});

in /usr/lib/node_modules/homebridge-devolo/node_modules/node-devolo/dist/DevoloApi.js
