and maybe to the Reddit one as well that started it all.
I’ve already raised my support ticket and I’ve tweeted Logitech and contacted them via Facebook. we need to hassle them about it.[/quote]
I decided not to downgrade to version 201 because I read somewhere here, I think it was Rene’s post that it stopped working with Alexa. I will be in trouble because my wife is a big fan of Alexa to turn TV on/off LOL
It was me that said that. I blocked the Harmony domains on the router.
I’m sure many people have raised support tickets and sent them all the related links I did. Didnt expect anything to happen just wanted to contribute to Logitech’s work load over this outage.
Statement from Logitech support about reinstating XMPP in January (updated 3hrs ago at time of this posting).
I think that you can also install a special “beta, developer only” firmware version that reinstates XMPP right now.
Sounds like Logitech are doing a u-turn and finally seeing some sense…
Although going forward the websockets API is probably the one they should be making official for 3rd party Home Automation integrations rather than the XMPP one.

EDIT: New firmware version does the trick! :)[/quote]
Amazing, I am going to go this route. I was not expecting Logitech to react positively to our complaints so credit to them for listening and acting accordingly.
More importantly, thanks to you Rene for your quick turnaround with the websocket patch - your talent and dedication is very much appreciated
I cant seem to get another hub up and running when I add another instance of the Harmony control plugin it says Plug in not yet initialized. Wait a moment and then Reload device and Browser. I’ve done both but nothing changes.
I?m back in business with Harmony developers update, also I struggled getting it on my Mac, I had to pull a pc and make sure to have latest version of Harmony app…
Thank you Rene for working on a fix as well, your app is the best!

[quote=“reneboer, post:633, topic:184450”]Correct, no need for the workaround and the ‘developer’ version from Logitech.
Cheers Rene[/quote]
i am not too clear on this. i followed and click the link and installed “FIRMWARE TO ENABLE XMPP FOR DEVELOPERS ONLY”. now Rene’s plugin in vera is working for me. i just check the version of my harmony hub and it is 4.15.210 not 206.
The latest 2.28 version of the plugin will work with all current (201,206,210) versions of the Logitech Hub firmware out of the box.
The earlier versions of the plugin do not work with 206 and only with the 210 (and later?) versions if you apply the workaround from Logitech to enable the XMPP API.
Hoping you can help but first of all, thanks for all the work on this plugin. It has been amazing. So as one user reported earlier, I have installed your latest LUA (on my controller running UI7) and was able to get one of my Harmony’s working again perfectly. When I go to add another, however, it provides the blue bar at the top indicating “Harmony Control: Configure IP Address”. Going into the new add, it does not provide the option screen to add the IP, login and password regardless of how many times I reload. In my other controller which is running UI5, unfortunately neither existing Harmony’s began to work, instead that same error message began to display although all the IP’s, login and passwords are there. Any ideas? Should I downgrade back to 2.2 (or 1.7) and use the Harmony Hub Firmware fix instead?
I found a first time problem on an additional device indeed. Go to the device Control, Advanced, Variables, and edit the UIVersion variable to any value. For example 1. Then reload the luup engine and refresh your browser. That should do it.
Many thanks for the fix. I’m on version 2.22 with auto update. Sharing to other users who might encounter the same problem since the 2.28 is not yet published, follow instructions here to force update to the latest version - http://forum.micasaverde.com/index.php/topic,36437.0.html
Happy holidays!
