Homekit Bridge could not be started
Hi - I'm trying to load Homekit Bridge for the first time (have not used Buddy in the past) on Indigo 7.2. Homekit begins to load, and then fails, and stops each time.
**The Indigo logs i get is;
Apr 1, 2019 at 8:06:27 PM HomeKit Bridge Error HomeKit server 'Apple Homekit Bridge' could not be started, please check the service logs for more information, now issuing a forced shutdown of the service to be safe.
If you continue to have problems starting this server use the Advanced Plugin Actions menu option to rebuild the Homebridge folder. Instructions at https://github.com/Colorado4Wheeler/HomeKit-Bridge/wiki/Plugin-Menu-Utilities#rebuild-homebridge-folder HomeKit Bridge Attempting to stop 'Apple Homekit Bridge' HomeKit Bridge HomeKit server 'Apple Homekit Bridge' has been stopped
**I've tried deleting and reloading Homekit, but get the same result.
**Here is the homebridge log that i get;

Please let me know what to try next.
thanks.

Loaded config.json with 0 accessories and 1 platforms.
Have you tried adding any devices to the HKB server to see what happens? It could be having a problem because there aren't actually any devices to do something with. Please also post the configuration file for Homebridge.
Hi - thanks. Yes, i've tried to add devices and get the same message. I've attached a screen shot of the Accessory Server inputs. Let me know if something looks off?
thanks.
Here's the config.json file contents... { "platforms": [ { "protocol": "http", "name": "HomeKit Bridge Server", "listenPort": "8445", "platform": "Indigo2", "host": "127.0.0.1", "debug": false, "serverId": 1266873249, "port": "8558" } ], "bridge": { "username": "CC:22:3D:E3:CE:10", "name": "Apple Homekit Bridge", "pin": "031-45-154", "port": "51826" }, "accessories": [], "description": "HomeKit configuration generated by HomeKit Bridge on 2019-04-01 20:05:26.938000 for device Apple Homekit Bridge" }
Homekit Bridge began "running" miraculously yesterday. However when i tried to link it to my iPhone (Home app) using the 031-45-154 code, it timed out, failed, and could not connect after several attempts.
Does anyone have suggestions on what could be causing this?
thanks.
Paul
No - and in fact today it's no longer "running" on Indigo, and I get the prior messages about checking the file locations.

Do you have it working on other iOS devices?

I am having the same issue, will not start any of my servers. I tried rebuild and no help. I deleted all servers and built new one. Same error messages as above.
