Openhab not showing up in Homekit (home app)

thank for sharing the log.
your config looks good.

but there is issue/bug in the version 2.6.6 of homekit binding which happens especially with fresh setup. it is fixed already but after the 2.6.6 release.

you need either downgrade to 2.6.5 or upgrade to the latest snapshot or wait for 2.6.7 release which will be probably end of July or so.

in order to upgrade to the latest snapshot you need

  • login to server with openhab (ssh or directly)
  • connect to karaf (password: habopen)

ssh -p 8101 openhab@localhost

  • find the id of the homekit binding with

list | grep Homekit

  • execute
    update <id of homekit binding> https://openhab.jfrog.io/openhab/libs-pullrequest-local/org/openhab/addons/bundles/org.openhab.io.homekit/2.5.7-SNAPSHOT/org.openhab.io.homekit-2.5.7-SNAPSHOT.jar

  • verify that binding has a new version with

list | grep Homekit

looks like this
