Get password issue... #55

Closed MrMxyzptlk closed 6 years ago

MrMxyzptlk commented 6 years ago

I have successfully used your excellent utility on one of my Linux boxes several times in the last year. I have updated nodejs to the latest, and have the latest version of your utility.

When I run the the get password command this is the output...with the BLID obfuscated. Not sure why it won't work this time...any idea?

Robot Data: { ver: '2', hostname: 'Roomba-30F7012451143700', robotname: 'Celeste', ip: '10.0.0.154', mac: '28:C2:DD:8A:8C:EE', sw: 'v2.2.11-4', sku: 'R98----', nc: 0, proto: 'mqtt', blid: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' } Error getting password. Follow the instructions and try again.

Hi, what node version do you have? close your mobile app

MrMxyzptlk commented 6 years ago

nodejs version 4.2.6

koalazak commented 6 years ago

that is not the latest on 4's branch. Try updating to Node.js 4.8.4. Or latest 5 or latest 6. And take a look at this closed issues:

Thank you, I had updated to the latest before I posted this error, but I guess "sudo apt-get update" and "upgrade", didn't do the trick. I will try again...

MrMxyzptlk commented 6 years ago

That did the trick...somehow my password changed from one of the last Roomba firmware updates. I'm now on 8.xxxx node.js

Thank you for your time!
