Running the Daemon from the commandline

  1. Log into your CCU via SSH
  2. stop the service using this command:
/usr/local/etc/config/rc.d/hap-homematic stop
  1. Start hap via the commandline:
node /usr/local/addons/hap-homematic/node_modules/hap-homematic/index.js

You may add the -D parameter to start hap in debug mode

node /usr/local/addons/hap-homematic/node_modules/hap-homematic/index.js -D

Hap will start with a lot of output. So you may be able to see any errors at the console

You can exit this mode by CTRL-C. The hap process will be terminated when you detach the console. Back to normal mode:

/usr/local/etc/config/rc.d/hap-homematic start

Running in Debug Mode

You can simply switch into debug mode via the WebUI. Just go to Internals and activate the debug mode. Running in debug means a lot of output into the log so please make sure u've turned debug off again.

A restart of the daemon will disable debug mode, but also purge the log.
