I have a couple pistons in webcore that start an event in EG they have being working for several months. I went on vacation for 6 weeks and now when I turn on my PC with EG the pistons no longer control the events. How do I trouble shoot. I havent changed any settings. One piston monitors power on a power outlet connected to a dryer. When the dryers power drops it triggers an event in EG. I see noting in EG

Re: EG on PC & Webcore
Yes, I use smartthings and the EG plugin using EG's webserver, was just wondering how you used webcore directly with EG or do you just use the EG plugin to send events to EG from smartthings ?

Re: EG on PC & Webcore
Not that it helps but mine is working fine. Has the IP of the computer changed or have you set it static ?

Re: EG on PC & Webcore
Mine wouldn't work without a blank index.html file and the path setup in the EG webserver HTML documents root folder pointing to it.
index.html:
<head>
<title>EventGhost Webserver</title>
</head>
<body>

Re: EG on PC & Webcore
Did you turn your smartthings hub off while you were away?
I had to turn the power off in the house last week and had similar issues after... Still not found the root cause

Re: EG on PC & Webcore
Nope I was using it while away. I did have the computer off with EG. When I came back I turned the computer on and changed the IP from Dynamic to Static and reserved the IP on the router but that souldnt have caused any problem its the same IP
Re: EG on PC & Webcore
Im pretty sure it was some sort of network issue. The host just wasn't receiving messsages for whatever reason. Glad it got resolved.
