Hi, i just spent days to resolve my homebridge problem, but it won`t work. I followed this manual https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-openhab. After startup i receive this message with “sudo systemctl status homebridge”:
● homebridge.service - LSB: Start daemon at boot time
Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/homebridge)
Active: active (exited) since Sun 2017-09-03 13:55:41 CEST; 1min 26s ago
Process: 620 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/homebridge start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
After that i have to start manually “homebridge”, then homembridge is visible within Homekit, but without any items of openhab.

Scan this code with your HomeKit App on your iOS device to pair with Homebridge:

Hi Andrè, after I installed the Homekit Service using Paper UI, the homekit.cfg in the service folder was missing. So i created manually with these values:
org.openhab.homekit:port=9124
org.openhab.homekit:pin=031-45-154
org.openhab.homekit:useFahrenheitTemperature=false
org.openhab.homekit:thermostatCoolMode=CoolOn
org.openhab.homekit:thermostatHeatMode=HeatOn
org.openhab.homekit:thermostatAutoMode=Auto
org.openhab.homekit:thermostatOffMode=Off
org.openhab.homekit:networkInterface=10.168.178.10 //instead of localhost, i was using before
The second thing was, I created a “special” homebridge sitemap (beside my standard one). This shouldn`t have the frame labels inside!
It looks like:
I think, that you are now using Homekit Service installaed from Paper UI. You don’t need homebridge anymore. Or are you able to configure rollershutters?
