I cannot see any error in your config.json - except the strange quotes around "knxd_ip": “0.0.100”
Try to exchange those quotes with normal quotes - your editor might have replaced while typing. It's always best to use a plain text editor instead of a "smart" program (like MS Word, Write, you-name-it)
I fixed the problem with the quotes but it's still not working, same problem. Should I try with eibd?
Which version of Homebridge are you using? I do not think that knxd/eibd are doing any harm at the moment (though I think it wouldn't work see below) , for some reason your accessory does not get read:
[3/13/2016, 3:12:39 PM] [KNX] Initializing KNX platform...
[3/13/2016, 3:12:39 PM] [KNX] Fetching KNX devices.
[3/13/2016, 3:12:39 PM] [KNX] returning 0 accessories
It should return 1 accessory, not 0. I am not sure it actually reads the config.json you've pasted, do you might have more than one?
Your knxd parameters are a little mixed up. --eibaddr=0.0.100
doe not mean IP address 0.0.100 but KNX (physical) address of 0.0.100. For defining an IP listener, use --listen-tcp=192.168.0.1
or whatever your local network range suits.
See https://gist.github.com/snowdd1/0ecceb38e924ee125d36#local-listener-section for more details.
I only have a single config.json.
I'm using an USB to KNX controller, so I guess that --eibaddr=0.0.100
is not needed.
I think that I'm messing up the knxd parameters, I cannot understand which ip address and port should I put on the config.json file. Can you help me out with this?
Hi @cece99 I just re-installed my RaspberryPi with a fresh raspbian jessie lite. I failed to run Homebridge with node v5, so I went for 4.4 again.
Which version are you using?
I used to following commands for installation:
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_4.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install nodejs
$ npm install homebridge
....
$ npm install homebridge-knx
homebridge-knx@0.2.7 node_modules/homebridge-knx
├── eibd@0.3.4

I ran homebridge once to create the .homebridge directory in pi's home:

Maybe you should consider re-installing node, homebridge and homebridge-knx on your pi. For some reason homebridge never passes the accessories section to homebridge-knx in your current installation. It never comes to a point talking to knxd, so that cannot be a factor.
Best regards Raoul
This is stale for 10 days, so I assume it solved.
If I try to run homebridge I get 0 accessories found:

And I'm running knxd this way:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo knxd --eibaddr=0.0.100:6720 --error=1 --listen-local=/var/run/knxd --pid-file=/var/run/knxd.pid --layer2=usb:1:4 W00000020: EIBD should not run as root
I'm also providing the config.json: `{
}
]
}`
I don't know what I'm doing wrong, I have a "TheBen" USB to KNX interface.
Thanks for the help.
