Problems with latest update v2.3.0 under homebridge 1.3.0 / 1.3.1

[bubffm]

Somehow, I have accidentally closed my last issue and dont know how to reopen, so here we go again:

Actually there is an issue somehow with the latest update on the CA4. Automations no longer switch the humidifiers on. Switching them on manually, puts them on but leaves the switch in „off“ position, so no surprise the automations fail..... Here the Error I get:

[MiHumidifier] [192.168.2.16] Fail to set device property "mode". Error: Invalid result: {"did":"mode","siid":2,"piid":5,"code":-4002}

I have : "autoSwitchhToHumidityMode": false, "disableTargetHumidity": true,

Deleting "autoSwitchhToHumidityMode": false, "disableTargetHumidity": true, from config does unfortunatly not change anything. Plugin is still throwing error messages....

Tried to move back to V2.2.3. but Npm tells me it's not in the registry....

State of device in the app is updated every 30 seconds, so if you turn humidifier "on" manually you need to wait for a bit for the status to change

Tried to move back to V2.2.3. but Npm tells me it's not in the registry....

I haven't removed any old versions, they all must be available https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-mi-humidifier. Try npm install homebridge-mi-humidifier@2.2.3

Do you have this errors only when you use automations? Are there any errors when you change fan speed without automation?

[bubffm]

I get these errors only in the automations. EVE is giving me a red exclamation mark and is just not executing it. The log throws that error that I posted above.

Actually my automation to "switch on" the humidifers turns them off - due to the status being reported wrong I guess... I then need to go to each humidifier listed in EVE and switch it on manually. It needs two attempts: After first switiching on, the fan starts, but the EVE button still shows it as "off". Then I put it "on" again and only then the status is saved in EVE App.

Try npm install homebridge-mi-humidifier@2.2.3

Did that. It ran thru, I rebooted homebridge, but the UI X interface still tells me I'm on 2.3.0 and it still "behaves" like 2.3.0

weird....

UPDATE: It need another reboot. Now I'm on 2.2.3. But the issue is still there....

I believe I found the issue: For some reason the cache must have been "corrupted". Those logs gave me the clue. I set disabled to "true", reboot, then disabled "false", another reboot. Re-added the devices to the automations.

All seems to work again. I'll monitor for a while. If confirmed, will close the issue.

UPDATE: I keep getting these Characteristic errors, but at least the automations work now. Something still isnt quite "kosher"

Characteristic warnings should be fixed in the latest release 2.3.1. Do you still have problems with automations?

[bubffm]

No, automations are fine 👍
