setup.exe

[Audittman]

Hello
When I click on "setup.exe"

, at the beginning of the configuration, I can not access the configuration window as you mention ... but i have this :

I work with VMWareFusion (windows 7) for MAC.

Instructions could be clearer (and github could be easier to use). Click the "View Raw," then choose to save the file. You'll have to do this for the 2 files in the Setup directory (setup.exe and the NanoVeraHuesBridge.msi file). Then, from your computer, where you downloaded the setup files, run the setup.exe.

Github doesn't make it easy to download a file or two.

Hello

thanks a lot for your help. I could move forward.

Hello
I meet the other problem now : I said that I am in France and I bought the ECHO in the US. and that may be the problem is that SSDP may not be the same in France ... I don't really know ...
Here is the error that occurs when right click on the service and choosing " start" . And the "LOG" file.

log.txt

[nanowebcoder]

My French is not nearly as good as your English, but it looks like the log file doesn’t like the IP address or the port

2016-04-29 11:59:24.4820 | VeraHuesBridge.SSDPService | WARN | Error occured starting SSDP service. | L’adresse demandée n’est pas valide dans son contexte

The things I would check are:

a) Is 192.168.1.100 the correct IP address (should be the IP of the computer running the bridge, not the echo)

b) Anything else using port 1900? You might need to stop the SSDP Discovery service if it is running. I have heard people say it can interfere with other software on the machine. Or try a different port (1901 for instance)

Hello
Thank you very much for using valuable assistance . it helped me to understand a little better how this utility works ...
Remains to configure my devices.

[Audittman]

Hello.
I get to the part where I ask Alexa to find the devices.
Here are my DeviceConfig & Log files.

DeviceConfig.txt

log.txt

192.168.1.51 is my IP address of my PC.

Hue Bridge has been started locally :

Alexa said she does not find any device when I run the search: I ask myself the question: is it because I 'm emulation with VMWare Fusion and my Alexa is perhaps not recognized on my wifi windows 7 emulated ?

[nanowebcoder]

The log says its trying to listen on 192.168.1.6 but you say your PC is 192.168.1.51. Can you list out the ip addresses of your PC, your echo and your Vera? The. We need to check the application configuration

Hello.

Here is :

• IP of my computer (I said that the IPControl is doing on my windows 7 on my Windows virtual (VMWare ) .
  In fact I do everything on that because I work otherwise on Mac.).
  

But my Imac IP is :

• VERA IP : 192.168.1.16
  
• ECHO IP :
  

[nanowebcoder]

In the application configuration, you want to use 192.168.1.51

Sorry, I don't understand your answer ..

[Audittman]

When you say in the "Getting.Started.with.Nano.Vera.Hues.Bridge.pdf":

"However the Amazon Echo will not know about new devices until you tell Vera to Discover Devices."
what do you mean ?
I have already devices in my VERA. I have to make a manipulation in my VERA ? I do not see how I can detect the ECHO BRIDGE HUE . Because it is on the same network and the service Nano Vera/Hues Bridge is started ? Where is that ECHO will search for devices and created with DeviceEditor.exe ?

Thank you for the time spent trying to solve my problems : I really want this to work at home ...

[nanowebcoder]

I have a typo it appears:

"However the Amazon Echo will not know about new devices until you tell Vera to Discover Devices."

Should read:

"However the Amazon Echo will not know about new devices until you tell Echo to Discover Devices."

I am saying you need to literally tell Echo to “Discover New Devices”

Echo will then perform a uPNP discovery of your network. If the NanoVeraHuesBridge is running and setup correctly, Echo will discover it. This means Echo will then ask the bridge to tell it what devices it has configured. Echo will then say “I have discovered X number of new devices). If it were a conversation it would look like this:

You: Echo, discover new devices.
Echo: Ok….
Echo (to your network): Hey anybody out there?
Bridge: Yes I am here. Hello.
Echo (to the bridge): What devices do you control?
Bridge: I control X, Y and Z devices.
Echo (back to you): I found 3 new devices.

Yes, i'd literally tell Echo to “Discover New Devices”...
However ECHO replies that he can not find anything ... That's my problem now.

[nanowebcoder]

Need to make sure you have the right IP and ports assigned. Let’s get a fresh log:

1.  Stop the service
   

2.  Delete the log file
   

3.  Start the service
   

4.  Tell Echo to discover new devices.
   

5.  When done, stop the service
   

6.  Send the log file
   

Also send a copy of the application configuration (NanoVeraHuesBridgeService.exe.config)
