Can you explain your setup? If you used an old version, then you need to upgrade also lights firmware and everything must work fine. config.json file is saved automatically every hour, if you configure the rooms, the lights and reboot right away is possible to lose some configuration. I suggest to start HueEmulator.py script manually because when you press CTRL+C it will save the config on exit and then you can reboot.
OK so I replaced firmware in all my lights, replaced the bridge firmware again completely with default config. Start the emulator (shut down service and run manually HueEmulator.py), everything runs OK, save lights and rooms. Now when I restart the bridge, the service won't start. When I run the HueEmulator manually it just prints this: Config loaded server stopped 'bri' Config saved
Maybe be the config gets corrupted somehow?
Yes, for sure there is a problem with the config. I introduce automatic backup in recent versions, if you don't have any bakup i believe you need to start with new config.
As I said I used the default config from the repository.
I tried one more thing.
I briefly catched some encoding exceptions in console while saving the lights. Could it be caused by special characters in the names of scenes etc. In older version these were just replaced with "?" character but now it breaks the config? Below is the config (corrupted) after save.

I will debug in 10 minutes
please replace update_lights_on_startup = True
with update_lights_on_startup = False
and test. I believe the error is in code.
No change, the config still gets corrupted
EDIT>> It works after restart!
is working no mater update_lights_on_startup is set to True or False?
Its working when set False
ok, it means there is a bug in that function when there are on/off devices with no bri attribute. I will fix this today.
You should reconsider accepting donations for this kind of support. Just saying.
i believe there will be a moment when i will add a paypal button, currently i put lot effort to have this software running very stable because all the lights in my home are managed by it and there is no turn back option, i remove all classic light switches, cover the holes, etc. People like you help me to find bugs and provide me relevant feedback.
Hi @mariusmotea Today I've updated the hue emulator to latest commit (my old version was before the fw version update) and since then I cant make my lights save properly. I set my rooms and lights but after I restart the Pi, all lights disappear and I have to search them again. Rooms disappear also, but interestingly first room is still available in the hue app. Spend few hours on it already and cant figure it out. I even tried to roll back before the update but Philips disabled older fw version already. I would very much appreciate any help.
I should add, that everything seems OK until I restart the bridge.
