MMM-AlexaControl or MMM-AlexaOn/Off setup

sdetweil

@dave_ look at the console where u started mm.

pm2 logs --lines=100
or
in the window where u did npm start.

black screen usually means missing library

u did npm install in the AlexaControl folder, right?

@sdetweil it’s finally showing on screen like the mm is working but still had no luck with discovery and Spotify is off

sdetweil

@dave_ did u see the startup messages from the module like i posted?

I am not quite sure which line to look at but check the image

Just out of curiosity does it have to be alexa echo device like can’t a i use for a soundbar or speaker with built in alexa or maybe even the mobile app?

sdetweil

@dave_ u got the eaddressinuse error. something is using port 1900, this the the port we stopped Spotify to get access to

stop mm, then do

sudo netstat -a | grep 1900

in there is a response then something is still using the port.

I havent tried discovery from my Alexa app in a long time. since they made it possible via voice command

@dave_
ok do this

sudo netstat -a -p | grep 1900

mine shows this when MM is running

sudo netstat -a -p | grep 1900
udp        0      0 0.0.0.0:1900            0.0.0.0:*                           11153/electron.js
