Looks like the version of socket.io library that got installed doesn't work with node v6 and requires a newer version. You could try and pin an older version of socket.io through package.json or install an older version manually with npm install. Just a heads up, it's very likely that Sonos S2 update that will be released in June will break this software.

Thank for your the response! Argh! That sucks I was so excited to get this controller on my home tablets. I think the same is for your HTTP controller correct?

[sw764206]

Also will you be planning on updating your http api and this web controller scripts after S2 is released? Or are you planning on retiring them?

I figured i could use them now and disable automatic updates on my system until a new version that works with S2 is released

Seems like I did an upgrade of socket.io to 2.x.x at some point, which probably lost compatibility with node 6.x.

I have upgraded twice, once from 0.9.x to 1.4.5+ and then 2.2.0, but I'm unsure which one broke node 6 compatibility. socket.io doesn't say in their release notes, probably because it is some dependency that is actually the culprit.

Try installing a specific version with: npm install socket.io@1.7.4 (it might even work with 2.0.4, I think it broke in 2.1.0 when they switched websocket library), or even older, like 0.9.19. I think it should be backward-compatible.

Since I haven't gotten any info about S2 nor what it's about, I can't say if I will make a new version that works with S2. The reason I'm suspecting that S2 will break this is because I know that they have been working on cloud-control and have had limited features available through cloud-control. With that in place, I believe that the UPnP api will be obsoleted, and I also think this is what all the fuzz about not being able to make gen1 and gen2 players to work together is about.

With a cloud-control API, most of this will be much easier to implement, but you will still have quite the struggle to use the cloud api with home automation because of authentication etc. There might still be room for similar software, but then I assume it would be a cloud-service that just simplifies the API, and just use static URL tokens (like my bronos solution, http://www.bronos.net/).

We'll see in June what they actually release :)

Thank you Jimmy! I had socket 2.something and reverted to 1.7.4 and was able to get the application running. The drag and drop zone feature works great on the computer and even on my iPad but for some reason doesn’t work on an amazon fire tablet. I thought it might be a browser issue so I tried chrome on the device but it still didn’t work. Is this a amazon fire issue? I did try your /m dashboard and it works great for volumes but cant control zones
