Unhandled 'error' event

[mblong]

This is a very welcome addition -- thanks for your efforts.

I believe I'm close to having things working, but get this error when I start homebridge:

I'm not sure if this an openhab or homebridge issue. I'm running homebridge on a raspberry Pi and openhab on a second raspberry Pi.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks.

I found a workaround for this problem. The issue seems to be related to password protection in openHab.

In my openhab.cfg file I had security:option=EXTERNAL changing this to security:option=OFF

lets homebridge work if I take "user": "myUserName", "password": "myPassword", out of my config.json file. I needed these in the config.json file to get as far as I did in the previous post.

I'm not clear on why the EXTERNAL option in openHab required a username/password in the first place since both the openHab and homebridge raspberry Pis are on the same network. I would like to be able to have the password protection enabled.

Any thoughts on how to do this?

I will try to test and fix openHAB authentication in the next days! Thank You for your highlighting!
