Can't Connect Vera Plus

Third party integrations
1

Not sure what I am missing, here. I followed the instructions and added the following to my configuration.yaml:

vera:
  vera_controller_url: http://10.0.0.112:3480/

Here is the error from the log:

I’ve also tried port 80, and adding ‘/cmh’ to the URL. I am able to get to the vera dashboard at http://10.0.0.112/cmh (port 80).

Is this integration broken?

Actually, I’m seeing the same errors recently – but only intermittently. I also have a Vera Plus set up the same way you do. Have you fixed this?

@mconnolly Mark, mine magically (hopefully intentionally) started working with the upgrade to 0.101.2

Note, my yaml needed to be modified from what appears in the documentation. So, remove the “:3480” port, and add it in as “port_3480” - and leave out the trailing forward slash.

vera:
  vera_controller_url: http://10.0.0.6/port_3480

Hope this helps…

This should be updated in the docs! Seems like vera changed stuff in the latest update.

Yep - can confirm no issues since following the advice of kmycek, above. :+1:
