Scenes deleting when restarting

EugeneKallis commented 3 years ago

Expected Behavior

Expected Behavior is when i restart homebridge my scenes relating to my homebridge accessories should retain.

Current Behavior

Currently i only use tplink smarthome with homebridge. On the Homekit app i create a screen with just the tplink accessories and it works. The problem comes when i restart Homebridge that scene is deleted but the accessories persist.

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

Add Accessories to homebridge
Create scene with said accessories in homekit
Restart Homebridge
Previous created scene is deleted

Versions

Docker Ubuntu
 node --version 
v14.16.0
homebridge --version
1.3.3
Ubuntu server 18.04

I wanted to add a note, i changed from manual discovery to automatic and Im now able to restart Homebridge without having to add the switches to my scenes.

Hi there,

I seem to be having the same exact problem. This plugin is forcing my entire homebridge setup to forget all cached devices on every restart. Could you be more specific as what you did to remedy this?

EugeneKallis commented 3 years ago

Hello @IGLarrea,

So i actually did 2 things but i didnt take the time to figure out which exactly fixed it.

First thing was i had 2 networks, 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.10.1. I had my Homebridge on 192.168.1.1 and my lights on the other network. So i switched the lights to be on the same network. On top of that i removed static ip and let it discover automatically. From that point on i havent had a issue.

I hope this helps.
