[MMM-AlexaOnOff] Simple Mirror Control from External Home Assistant (Alexa/Google Home/HASS.io)

Please check the same things:

1. Check your MagicMirror version, if it’s lower than v2.5.0 and you don’t want to upgrade, you can try changing line 21 in MMM-AlexaOnOff.js to match your version.
2. You should see FauxMo service started. Listening on 192.168.x.x:21900 in your log file if the service started.
3. You can try testing with the example:

    cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-AlexaOnOff/node_modules/fauxmojs/example
    node example.js

You should see: started.. and then be able to discover ‘office light’ and ‘office fan’ on your Alexa.
4. Make sure you try discovery from alexa.amazon.com, not just your Echo.

@shbatm Thank you for responding!

1. I have the newest version 2.6
2. Yes, I can see that line while starting the mirror.
3. I also can see this in my command line with the example.
4. No devices found. With echo, Alexa app and web interface. Also no test “office light” or “office fan”.

Weird?! Perhaps the netInterface problem?! Or should it work with “enp3s0”?

As long as the line in the log is returning your computers’ correct IP Address, enp3s0 appears to be working…

Check netstat tulpn | grep 21900 and make sure the port is open. Otherwise check that your Alexa is on the same network/WiFi/account as you expect. If you’re getting the port open, then it’s something with the network or Alexa causing the problems.

@shbatm Ok so it works BUT it is only finding the last device on my list of the config.js file module entry when there are 36 others there. I tried discovery like 20 times from the website.
Should i try adding them one by one from the bottom up by commenting them out and adding them one by one …unless you got any other ideas :)

@richland007 in the log is it showing all of the ports in the range open? (e.g. 21900-21936)?

[richland007]

@shbatm Where do i see the logs??
When i use

netstat -tulpn | grep electron

It only show that 1 one port 0.0.0.0:21900 Listen

Yes, IP-Adress is correct. From console everything looks like it should. Alexa is in the same network - wlan, mirror lan. I also have hue in here and the hue module on my mirror. Everything looks fine there. But actually, Alexa finds nothing.

Ich checked your command. After that, with sudo netstat -tulpnI see this:

Do I need the wemo skill or something like that?

wemo skill

You shouldn’t need a separate skill with it. It looks like everything is working from the mirror side so I’m not sure what else to try…

It would be in pm2 logs mm or ~/.pm2/logs folder. I’ll check when I get a chance why it’s not opening more than 1 port.

[richland007]

@shbatm I don not see anything out of the ordinary in my logs when i do pm2 logs mm definitely not 36 ports open in addition to 29100 when i go to location ~/.pm2/logs the log files are there in the directory but empty.
