    hi,

    Having recently paid for premium so i could enjoy the voice control, i am unable to install home bridge and get the following error in the terminal window of the web page.

    When finished this message disappears.

    Reboot is needed to work properly!

    can someone guide me here, i am newish to linux, although i have managed to install homebridge on another pi i have using the command line, is this something i will need to fix via command line, which defeats the purpose for me.

    regards

    Hi stredwizard,

    As mentioned in the other thread:
    The Config has to be changed manually in the web interface under “Edit Homebridge Config”. Here’s our HowTo on exactly how you can set it up: https://www.max2play.com/en/how-tos/how-to-max2play-voice-control-with-apple-voice-assistant-siri/

    The Webinterface of HomeBridge is not intended to be used in this solution. Please refrain from trying to use it.

    Hi stredwizard,

    Thanks for sharing the log and clarifying your issue.

    We have found a bug in the install script and fixed it in the current beta.

    You can either make a beta update, reboot your system and install the homebridge again or just install the plugin again from the same URL and reboot.
