Hi. I am setting up my HS server in Ubuntu and I am looking into how to automate startup and shutdown of homeseer.
Startup:
Startup is taking a REALLY long time
It goes well until this command:
1/24/2014 10:37:47 AM:[Startup]->Starting DDNS service...
and then it stops for about 2 min before this messages shows up:
_wapi_connect: error looking up socket handle 0xe
Then another 2 minute delay and this message appears
1/24/2014 10:41:47 AM:[Startup]->Running the startup script Startup.vb
After that everything is fast again
Any hints what might cause this? It is behind a very restrictive firewall that may not let it access the internet on non-standard ports? Would that cause it? Is there a way to disable the DDNS service since I don't need it?
Shutdown:
The only way I can see to shut it down safely is:
1) run the ./go script using screen so I can connect to it later and issue the shutdown command
2) use the web interface and manually issue a shutdown.
Am I missing something or are there other ways to shut HS down once it has been started?
I have a good Ubuntu script to automate reconnecting to screen and issuing the shutdown command. If that is the best way, I will get it running and post it later.
Thanks
