Describe The Bug:
After using sudo hb-config to enable ssl/https redirection as described in the wiki, the nginx config gets destroyed.

To Reproduce:

Use sudo hb-config to enable ssl/https redirection as described in the wiki.

The following is shown on the console:

Synchronizing state of nginx.service with SysV service script with /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install.
Executing: /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install enable nginx
Starting Nginx...
Job for nginx.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status nginx.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

Moreover, sudo nginx -T shows the following:

sudo nginx -T
nginx: [emerg] unexpected end of file, expecting ";" or "}" in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/results:3
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed

The file results didn't exist before using the hb-config. I used ls /etc/nginx/sites-enabled before and there was only the homebridge.local file.

cat /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/results shows:

1
2

In the /etc/nginx/nginx.conf the following will be included:

include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*;

Therefore, the file is broken.

Deleting the results file and using sudo systemctl start nginx is the solution for this issue. Afterwards, the following will be shown and the service is working as expected with https redirection:

sudo systemctl status nginx

Expected behavior:
The nginx service should restart properly and the results file shouldn't break the config.

Environment:

• Homebridge Raspberry Pi Image Version: I used the Raspbian-Homebridge-v1.0.3.zip
• Node.js Version: v12.16.3
• NPM Version: 6.14.5
• Homebridge Version: 1.1.0
• Homebridge Config UI X Plugin Version: v4.20.0

Describe The Bug:
The documentation on https://github.com/homebridge/homebridge-raspbian-image/wiki/How-To-Install-deCONZ-for-ConBee-or-RaspBee is saying that for a RaspBee I there is no further thing to be done. However this might be not always true.

To Reproduce:

1. install HomeBridge 1.3.4 on Raspberry Pi 2B
2. connect a RaspBee I to it
3. follow steps in https://github.com/homebridge/homebridge-raspbian-image/wiki/How-To-Install-deCONZ-for-ConBee-or-RaspBee
4. open the DeCONZ web interface and check the Firmware of the connected RaspBee (can be seen in Settings -> Gateway).

Expected behavior:
A number should be shown such as 26390500 for the firmware, which is not the case.

Manual workaround:
Looking at the DeCONZ install instructions https://phoscon.de/en/raspbee/install#raspbian that the very first step from the guide is also necessary.

sudo raspi-config

Interfacing Options → Serial

Would you like a login shell accessible over serial? → No
Would you like the serial port hardware to be enabled? → Yes
Note: Changes to access rights only become active after a restart.

Additional notes:
Not sure if the step 6 is also needed as I don't have the RP4 available for testing.

I didn’t trust giving unknown to me 3rd party software elevated rights to copy your img onto an SD card

Describe the solution you'd like:

Include the simple dd command alternative to Etcher

Describe alternatives you've considered:

sudo dd if=Raspbian-Homebridge.img of=/dev/disk4 (where 4 is the appropriate device)

Additional context:

Agreed, I have to use elevated rights for block writes, but I trust dd already installed (on my MacOS). A one line alternative would help cautious users to adopt your great s/w.

It was a tedious Google search to find the alternative, I hope this feature rich request might help others. (Credit to https://www.reddit.com/r/homebridge/comments/dlct5d/homebridge_experience_with_raspberry_pi_zero_wh/ for the solution)

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe:

I just had a power surge at home and the wifi network took some time to get back online. The Raspberry did not retry long enough and went back to the hotspot feature. This means that if the same thing happens while I'm on holidays, someone would have to get over to my place which makes home automation kind of useless. Agreed, it doesn't happen every week or even month... but it might happen.

Describe the solution you'd like:

Continue to search for the last known network WHILE distributing the hotspot (no idea if that's possible).
OR
Try to reconnect every 10 minutes.
OR
Add it to the config so someone can disable the behavior if needed and reactivate it if for example you change your provider or wifi password.

Describe Your Problem:

I initially set up PiHole, but have since disabled it (when i found nextDNS), but I am not sure how to restore access to port 80 and be able to use NGINX.

When i try to change NGINX options from the hb-config service, it gives me an error An error occured while attempting to reload the NGINX config.

How would I reset just those affected settings from PiHole, but leave the other?

I have clean installed the image and still the error, all devices in network already reseted, name of the homebridge In config changed and still same, what i can do?

Is it possible to run Kodi on the homebridge-raspbian-image?

Any advice on how to do that?

Thanks

Hi Team,
First of all thanks for providing this image it is amazing!
I followed your setup instructions and my Homebridge is up and running with the plugins of my choice. So far so (very) good!
But since I integrated my PI Zero W into my personal Wifi as described in your setup instructions my iPhone shows my personal Wifi as "Insecure"because of WPA/WPA2 (TKIP) vulnerabilities. It recommends to use WPA2 (AES). Is that possible on the PI Zero W with your image and if yes then how? Thanks in advance and best regards Patrick

Describe The Bug:

After a reboot no WLAN connection is established if channel 12 or 13 is used.

WLAN country is set to Germany (de).
Channels 12 and 13 are generally "visible" to the raspberry.

pi@homebridge-garage:~ $ iwlist wlan0 channel
wlan0     13 channels in total; available frequencies :
          Channel 01 : 2.412 GHz
          Channel 02 : 2.417 GHz
          Channel 03 : 2.422 GHz
          Channel 04 : 2.427 GHz
          Channel 05 : 2.432 GHz
          Channel 06 : 2.437 GHz
          Channel 07 : 2.442 GHz
          Channel 08 : 2.447 GHz
          Channel 09 : 2.452 GHz
          Channel 10 : 2.457 GHz
          Channel 11 : 2.462 GHz
          Channel 12 : 2.467 GHz
          Channel 13 : 2.472 GHz
          Current Frequency:2.457 GHz (Channel 10)

If the WLAN router is set to channel 13, the Rapberry notices this and switches to channel 13.

pi@homebridge-garage:~ $ iwlist wlan0 channel
wlan0     13 channels in total; available frequencies :
          Channel 01 : 2.412 GHz
          Channel 02 : 2.417 GHz
          Channel 03 : 2.422 GHz
          Channel 04 : 2.427 GHz
          Channel 05 : 2.432 GHz
          Channel 06 : 2.437 GHz
          Channel 07 : 2.442 GHz
          Channel 08 : 2.447 GHz
          Channel 09 : 2.452 GHz
          Channel 10 : 2.457 GHz
          Channel 11 : 2.462 GHz
          Channel 12 : 2.467 GHz
          Channel 13 : 2.472 GHz
          Current Frequency:2.472 GHz (Channel 13)

If then a reboot is made, no WLAN connection will be established.

The following things I tried to solve the issue but without any effect.

• waiting 5-10 minutes and check if the connection got established.
• add line country=deto /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf even I'm not sure if this config is used at all
• modify the file /etc/systemd/system/dbus-fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1.serviceand change the line Before=network.target to Before=network.target NetworkManager.service, again not knowing if spa_supplicant.conf is used at all. The idea was to make sure the WLAN country is set to de before the NetworkManager starts to connect to the WLAN.
• use nmtui to remove the connection "Homebridge WiFi Setup" to check if that has any impact. This connection came back after reboot.

To Reproduce:

• Set channel at WLAN router to a channel < 11.
• Start raspberry
• WLAN connection is established
• Change channel at WLAN router to 12 or 13
• do reboot
• No WLAN connection is established

Expected behavior:

• A WLAN connection should establish even using channel 12 or 13

Hi,

Could it make sense to have a dedicated build for the Raspberry Pi 4 to use its latest hardware ?
The idea is to have better result for video mainly in term of response time and quality.

Describe The Bug:
I have a hidden network, so that when configuring the Homebridge on my Raspberry device, I cannot see listed my network on the list, because it is hidden and there is no option to select other networks or set the SSID of the network to connect with.

To solve this issue, I need to make my network broadcast the SSID to connect the Homebridge to my network.

Would be posible to add the option to select hidden networks?

To Reproduce:
Just disable the option to broadcast the SSID to make your network not visible, and the Homebridge will not connect.

Expected behavior:
When configuring the wireless network is supposed to have an option to select other networks or a field to input the SSID if not found.

Is it possible to add optional deCONZ/Phoscon to RaspberryPi image, same as it was done with Pi-Hole?
Thanks!

Hi,

I am using the Homebridge Raspian image on a Raspberry pi 4 4Go working well with the following plugin :

• Tahoma #dubocr (I got a lot of devices connected to my Tahoma using IO Homecontrol protocol)
• Dummy #nfarina (to switch on when I arrive at home, and opening the gate and garage automatically when I am on my motor bike)
• Nest #chrisjshull (Thermostats and Protect)
• Nest Cam #Brandawg93 (Cam IQ and Hello)

Before I was using the Starling Home Hub with good video results.

Now using the Nest Cam plugin I found the video quality very poor. Could it be no video hardware acceleration with the Homebridge Raspbian image ?
On the setting there is no path filled by default, may I need to fill it ?
If yes what is the path where we have all FFMPEG Libs ?

Many thanks in advance.
Regards

Nicolas

For the last two node.js updates I've tried to install via the hb-config>Upgrade node.js option it seems to have corrupted the node.js install somehow. In both cases running "sudo hb-config" and then selecting "Upgrade node.js" resulted in the following error:

Yesterday I installed a new plugin via config-ui-x and today, after attempting to update node.js, I get an error about "sudo: npm: command not found" when trying to install a plugin. Which seems to indicate the process of running hb-config or the "Upgrade node.js" routine is causing this issue. In the previous case I was able to resolve by running "sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade". I will try this again later today to confirm it resolves it again in this case.

Yesterday in installed plugin (weather-plus) and restart a raspberry since this time I am not able to connect to UI X panel and also device isn't on DHCP list of my router so it's not connected.

Do you have any advice for this? I wish to avoid reinstall of image.

Raspbian has changed name to Raspberry Pi OS but this project still refers to it as Raspbian.

Describe Your Problem:
I am running the MQTTthing plugin. None of my MQTT devices can access it through port 1883 (default port). I did not have this issue when I was running Homebridge on a typical Raspbian image. This issue is specific to the Homebridge-Raspbian image.

I ran netstat -lptn through the terminal and port 1883 is not listening. Is there something I'm missing? Should this be posted on the MQTTthing plugin page instead?

Would it be possible to add organizr into the installer menu alongside deconz, unify & pihole.

I have been running it on another machine because the installation interferes with the pi-hole port - but it would be a real worthwhile addition to the pi image - with one login you could add all the login pages for the homebridge install and run them from one tab on the browser.

While I love the MOTD, I feel like it could be a little more "dressed up."

Not saying what I've done is a final product, some of it is borrowed just to make a case, but I have an example I would like to share if you are at all interested. I've included a screenshot.

Describe Your Problem:
I ssh into my Pi on the homebridge raspbian, and followed the instructions for installing Pi-hole; however, I got this error:
Starting Pi-hole installer...
curl: (6) Could not resolve host: install.pi-hole.net
Pi-hole has been installed
Access Pi-hole in your browser by going to:
****** http://homebridge.local:80/admin* 1

But going to this site does nothing and I can't get to Pi-Hole interface. What am I doing wrong?

Describe Your Problem:
Hi. All my config works ok and is up to date (Homebridge, Pi hole and Node-Red). I am trying to update NPM to the latest version, but I don't see any option through Config UI X and neither through "hb-config" under Terminal. I don't see any in the Wiki, and I don't want to break it all.

Should I run "sudo npm install -g npm" under Terminal as I see in the Homebridge on Raspbian Wiki? or that will break all.

Sorry if this is not the correct place to ask this question, and thanks :)

• Homebridge Config UI X Plugin Version: v4.18.0

Using the latest homebridge-raspbian and cannot figure out how to get the logs displays in Homebridge Config-UI-X to be in 12h format. Various searches point me to the underlying Linux configuration, but not sure how to access that in Raspbian because all searches find are instructions for how to change it in the Raspbian GUI's digital clock.

I'd like to run homebridge AND a Flask app from the Homebridge image - so far I haven't been able to quit though? I've tried ctrl c @ RPI and I've tried a few options from the UI.

If I ran HB off a standard NOOBS, I could run both at once, no?

Hello, i am not able to control Raspberry Pi 4 Case Fan. Its always on.

Is it possible to do something with it?

Thanks you

Hello! This is my first post here seeking support. I've chatted and done some troubleshooting with the friendly folks on the Homebridge discord server as well with no luck.

I am unable to add Homebridge to the Home app on any of my iOS devices. The bridge does not seem to be discoverable on my network, confirmed by not seeing my pi on Bonjour browser.

I'm working with a clean setup.

• Recently purchased a new Raspberry Pi 4
• Freshly formatted microSD card.
• Flashed latest Homebridge raspbian image with balena Etcher using macOS
• Default config.json
• Only have 1 plugin installed (Verified Homebridge Hue v0.12.11)

Other things I have tried:

• Changing username/pin in config.json
• Deleting "persist" folder
• Homebridge Settings > Reset Homebridge Accessory
• Tried connecting to WiFi vs Ethernet
• Factory reset router
• Moved 2.4 and 5GHz networks to same SSID
• Rolled back Homebridge to 1.1.1, 1.1.6, rolled up to 1.2.4, 1.3.0 beta32
• Attempted to disable IPV6 by adding ipv6.disable=1 to /boot/cmdline.txt

I am able to control accessories via the Accessories tab on Config UI X.
Logs seem normal and I do not receive any error messages.

Describe The Bug:

I just did a fresh clean install of 1.0.15 from a freshly downloaded image on a Pi4 and I can't seem to be able to install plugins

To Reproduce:

• Copy fresh 1.0.15 image to SD card and insert in Pi 4
• Power up, connect to WiFi Setup network and configure WiFi
• Browse to homebridge.local and connect
• Click PlugIns tab, search for a plugin (I picked Ring) and click to install it

Expected behavior:

Plugin should install in seconds

I have installed Homebridge Pi Image and everything has been working as expected. I can access it from homebridge.local as well as 192.168.0.100:8581.

I have recently installed PiHole which installs a web service which should be accessible from port 80, however when I type in homebridge:80 or 192.168.0.100:80 it just redirects to homebridge.local and shows be the homebridge login page. It is almost like there is some prebaked port rerouting in the homebridge install. I have changed the port again within the Homebrige settings for Config UI X but it isn't making any difference.

Is homebridge doing anything funny here? This is preventing me accessing other services attempting to run on port 80.

• Homebridge Config UI X Plugin Version: v4.35.0

Since a couple of days my Homebridge Image Raspberry Pi keeps rebooting (reboots before homebridge itself has started).
I can't retrieve any logs from the Config UI system, since when I get there, the Pi already boots.

Do you have a trick how I can stop the loop (without pulling the plug ...) and debug?

Okay, I am sure this is a stupid question, but how can I uninstall a package?
I used the sudo hb-config when I installed the package. In this case "deCONZ", but now I got a second pi, and I want the other pi to run the deCONZ, so I do no longer need the package on this pi. I tried all sort of different options with sudo uninstall deconz etc, but none worked so far.
Can someone tell me how this is done?

Thanks
