sounds like HA-Bridge isn't running
If this is running on a Pi or linux type
Code: [Select]
sudo systemctl status ha-bridge.serviceIf it states it has stopped you can restart with
Code: [Select]
sudo systemctl start ha-bridge.service
If it is on Windows check your rules for java. Windows updates always mess this up and you'll need to remove any rules for java. Then restart HA-Bridge, a new security window will pop up to wish you click on the yes button.

Did you recently Update HA-Bridge to 5.4.0? If so did you load the right JAR file?
Have to tried a reboot?

Just to confirm HA-Bridge is on port 80 and HomeGenie is on port 8080?
I assume this is a PiX10Hub image correct?
I'd update to the latest HA-Bridge, it will not do it automatically.

I don’t really want to get involved in this discussion but after “another Alexa firmware update” you’ll find a solution to your problem here. Prepare yourself for regular breaks in functionality of the HA Bridge and what you’ll need to do to resolve them. Keep this as a reference point for yourself https://github.com/bwssytems/ha-bridge/issues/1286

HA-bridge uses the Philips Hue api to talk to Alexa, the notion that “another Alexa firmware update” will break your Alexa Isn't 100% accurate. However this seems to be what most people report as the issue. What does break Alexa connection from HA-Bridge is a Windows Update due to Java security certificates. Or users renumbering devices that have be discovered already. Or users changing the IP or port of HG.
Setting up IP reservations in ones router will help a lot

Most users here have moved to other alternatives to HA-Bridge/HomeGenie for Alexa. It is best to look at https://github.com/bwssytems/ha-bridge/issues as petera suggested. Chances are someone has ran into the same issues and posted there. bwssytems has a good handle on the software and can usually quickly get a issue sorted out.

What I found early on using HA-Bridge was you need a reliably quick network. Any slow down will cause Alexa to fail.
 Play with the "UPNP send delay" setting in the HA-Bridge config page. The default setting works most of the time but I found without ajusting this at my offgrid place Alexa would fail to activate a device even after successfully adding it. I also had to readjust this setting this summer when my DSL connection speed was increased. Interestingly our city broadband connection speed just increased (after a yearly squabble with our ISP) and I didn't need to addjust this. However Alexa responces are faster now. ::) :' :)%
 I still strongly suggest you read throught the issues at the HA-Bridge github, look through both the current and resolved issues.
