Error while loading plugin in Domoticz (Raspberry Pi)

[evanhemmen]

Hi, thanks for this plugin, I;m struggling to get it working in my situation. I followed all the steps in your guide.

Now when I go to the hardware page in Domoticz I don't see the plugin. After visiting the hardware page I see the following error in my log:

2023-06-14 17:16:53.993 Error: PluginList: Parsing '/home/pi/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-Brel-Plugin/', 'Error reading end tag.' at line 18 column 9 in XML '<plugin key="Brel-Home-Hub" name="Brel Home Hub" author="Superjunky" version="1.0.0" wikilink="https://github.com/superjunky/Domoticz-Brel-Plugin" externallink="https://www.brel-motors.nl/brel-app.html">

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Same issue for myself, looked at the plugins but don't see anything strange in the plugins on line 18: plugin.py line 18: <h3>Features</h3> brel.py line 18: self.s.settimeout(5)

The error also refers to an .xml, i'm not able to find any .xml as part of the plugin. Maybe the error refers to the url https://www.brel-motors.nl/brel-app.html which isn't working when I directly call it but I'm not sure that's the cause as it's an .html and not an .xml

Hi Robbie,

I have the same issue and I'm using domoticz 2023.2. I understood you are not using the Brel-hub anymore and maybe this is stopping you from maintaining this plugin. This is a pity because it's used by many to great satisfaction. If you are willing to fix this error I'm more than willing to test it! ;)

Cheers, Hans

Hi,

Same issue but this can be easily fixed by adding a missing \ as indicated by the error in Domoticz in plugin.py on line 28. Note that the comment is not included to the offset :)
